Some may disagree, but this writer doesn't think CM Punk should ever beat MJF one-on-one. The veteran's inability to do so should be something that Friedman repeatedly comes back to throughout his pro wrestling career, especially when Punk eventually retires from the ring.

He's a piece of crap - it's what he'd do.

AEW should be more concerned about taking the next step with MJF than giving Punk back his win. For a true Revolution to happen, Tony Khan must focus on what's important. MJF's ascension to the top of the tree takes precedence over Punk. Besides, it's not like they can't protect ol' CM in this one too.

He can do a Steve Austin at WrestleMania 13 routine by refusing to die, but MJF has to snag a second win over his comeback king rival by the end. Friedman must be readied as a World Title challenger as soon as humanly possible. Beating Punk twice in a row would be a neat way to get there.
