Ever since making their AEW debuts, fans have been clamoring to see Punk and Bryan face the top-notch stars of the company. The latter instantly delivered a dream bout against Omega back in September, but The Straight Edge Superstar has been inclined towards working with underutilized stars for the most part.
There’s no doubt that a feud between Punk and Omega has money written all over it. However, Cornette has now suggested The Best Bout Machine’s lack of initiative into the program.
While speaking on his Drive-Thru podcast, the wrestling manager said Punk probably won’t “want to put up with a lot of Kenny Omega’s foolishness,” and that the latter might be aware of the same.
He also said that Bryan Danielson would be a better opponent for Kenny Omega, highlighting the former WWE Champion’s impressive in-ring ability. Jim Cornette believes there’s no reason not to put the AEW world title on either Punk or Bryan at some point:
CM Punk will soon face Eddie Kingston at AEW Full Gear
Whether or not fans get to see CM Punk vs. Kenny Omega down the road, there’s massive hype for the former WWE Superstar’s ongoing feud with Eddie Kingston.
Both men engaged in a heated altercation during this week’s episode of Rampage. The war of words between Punk and Kingston felt real as both men left no stone unturned to humiliate one another. The aftermath saw both men initiate a brawl, thus building up hype for their impending clash at Full Gear.
