More details are reportedly being discussed as it relates to CM Punk’s return to AEW, according to a new report by F4WOnline.
The updated plan is said to be for a less of a “hard roster split” between Dynamite and the new rumored Saturday show. It is further being said the plan is for Punk to appear on Dynamite “when needed.”
Furthermore it was noted those with unresolved issues with Punk would be on Collision the week he’s on Dynamite, with the idea is to get people to resolve issues but that has not happened yet nor has there been any notable progress.
As it pertains to female talent, the report notes that the thought is that the split will not be hard at all with the women as AEW does not believe there is enough star power to do a hard split.
As of this writing, none of the current details are final.
The new rumored two-hour show is expected to air on TNT on Saturdays from 8:00 to 10:00 pm ET. The debut show has also been rumored to take place from the United Center in Chicago, with CM Punk returning for the first since last September’s All Out pay-per-view.
