AEW coach Mark Henry has shared his honest thoughts on the situation surrounding CM Punk, explaining what he’d do if he was in charge.
Punk hasn’t appeared on AEW TV since his verbal tirade at the post-All Out media scrum in September 2022.
Punk and several other stars were suspended following their alleged involvement in a backstage altercation after Punk’s scrum appearance, with the controversial star notably stripped of the AEW World Championship.
On Busted Open Radio, Mark Henry explained why, if he ran AEW, he’d push for a CM Punk return, noting:
“If I was in charge, I would bring him back and I would bring him back with him saying to the wrestling world, not an apology, but just state the facts.
“‘Grown men will disagree and things will be said that probably shouldn’t have been said and I regret airing my dirty laundry in front of the world. It won’t happen again.
Do we agree on everything? No. Can we work together and exist and have a business relationship? Yes.
“I will not let my personal feelings, my personal gripes, and concerns interfere with business again, because ultimately, the important thing is business and I am the business and business is good. AEW is better with me around.'”
