CM Punk Gives Blunt Response To Shane McMahon/Tony Khan Meeting

Shane McMahon and Tony Khan have set the wrestling world ablaze with their recent meeting and now CM Punk has given his thoughts on the situation.

AEW announcer Jim Ross set tongues wagging when he innocently commented that Shane McMahon in AEW was “so crazy it might work” on an episode of his podcast. It then emerged that McMahon had discussed a possible AEW appearance with friends in the company in what would surely be Tony Khan’s biggest coup yet.

WrestleTalk and Fightful Select have since reported that Shane McMahon held a private meeting with Tony Khan on July 29th at a private Arlington airport. It was reported that Khan and McMahon’s meeting was to discuss “possibilities moving forward.” It was also confirmed that Shane McMahon is no longer under any kind of WWE contract meaning that he could appear on AEW television at any time if he so chose to.

CM Punk Wouldn’t Be Surprised By Shane McMahon In AEW

Speaking on the SI Media With Jimmy Traina podcast, CM Punk was asked for his thoughts on Shane McMahon’s meeting with Tony Khan and had a one-word response:

“Pass.”

Punk was then asked if it would shock him if McMahon turned up in AEW, and perhaps having been part of the biggest shocks in wrestling history, it should come as no surprise that Punk noted:

No. I don’t think so.

Shane McMahon had a bit more to say about the meeting as he broke his silence on just what he and Tony Khan had to talk about.
