CM Punk and AJ Styles have wrestled on a number of occasions (seven), primarily in Ring of Honor and IWC. The problem here is that the last of these matches was 13 years ago, an entire decade before Punk decided that enough was enough and walked away from the squared circle.

Both men were fantastic workers even way back then, but over the duration of their careers they grew into truly unique talents. Punk frequently referred to himself as the ‘Best in the World’ - AJ Styles would surely have something to say about that? Is there a better wrestler in WWE today than The Phenomenal One?

Their matches in Ring of Honor were fantastic in their own right, but fans often dreamed of the chance to see Punk and Styles do battle in their prime. Now that Punk has left it isn’t going to happen, but AJ certainly isn’t letting up in the quality stakes. If Punk changes his mind, AJ will be waiting.
