Given his status in the business and how much of a revolutionary CM Punk has been throughout his career, it comes as no surprise to hear that he's been a huge influence on many of the younger talent on the AEW roster.

What may come as a little more surprising, though, is that some of the AEW talent have tattoos based on the Straight-Edge Superstar and the impact he's had on them.

"A lot of familiar faces, a lot of new ones, too. Some of them make me feel old, but man, do some of them make me feel super cool. There's more than one conversation I've had that people were like, 'Hey, I just had to say that you helped me through a bad spot'. People have tattoos based on me. It's a lot, some of its heavy, but it's all positive. It's overwhelming, it really is."

When pushed to name who on the AEW roster has got a Punk tattoo, the Second City Saint refused to name names.

The Chicago native also praised how he's now able to fall back in love with pro wrestling, but that he doesn't have to be obsessed with the business - detailing how being in such an environment is almost a sense of therapy for those who have worked in WWE.
