MJF gives his thoughts on CM Punk returning to WWE after being fired from AEW

While being interviewed by the SI Media Podcast, AEW world champion MJF commented on CM Punk returning to WWE after being fired from AEW…

“I was happy for him. Listen, if he’s happy, I’m happy. I think he’s a hell of a talent, and at the end of the day, it’s a business. For some reason with wrestling, it’s looked at differently than any other sport. I see guys get traded to different teams all the time. That’s just life. So he did what he felt was best for him, and the company did what they felt was best for the company. So I just hope he’s happy. I wish him the best of luck.”

MJF also reflected on his rivalry with Punk in AEW…

“One of the greatest feuds… I’ll just say this, the greatest feud of the modern era was me versus CM Punk, I think, and that happened on AEW television.” (quotes courtesy of Colin Tessier)
