In a recent episode of the “Pro Wrestling 4 Life” podcast, Waltman took up the biggest news of the recent week. Waltman feels the signings will be best for business since both wrestlers are beloved by fans. He said,

“It’s exciting. It’s just good for everyone. It doesn’t hurt WWE, I don’t think. It definitely helps AEW. They already have some really good momentum as far as I’m concerned. It’s gonna be a f**king game-changer.”

The fans are hoping the rumors turn true and they finally get to witness CM Punk and Daniel Bryan together. Now, if AEW can do this deal, they have a good chance of overtaking WWE in terms of ratings and popularity. A true game-changing signing is what this is.
