When AEW All In comes to the UK in August, it looks like CM Punk will be in a big title match against an old enemy.
Samoa Joe made history on the August 5 episode of AEW Collision by beating Serpentico in less than ten seconds. This was the show’s fastest win in its short history.
After the fight, “The Samoan Submission Machine” would use the microphone to talk to “The Second City Saint” CM Punk.
Joe would talk about his loss to the “Real AEW Champion” in the 2023 Owen Hart Tournament, saying that “a roll-up is not good enough” for their past and legacy.

The ROH World TV Champion would then face CM Punk to a rematch at AEW All In at Wembley Stadium on August 27. This would be the biggest stage in AEW (and maybe wrestling) history.
“A roll-up is not good enough for our legacy!’
