AEW Dynamite advertised another major Tony Khan announcement and the AEW President and CEO did not disappoint. Wednesday on Dynamite, Khan confirmed CM Punk would return to AEW to appear on the June 17, 2023 broadcast of AEW Collision inside the United Center.

Last week’s broadcast of AEW Dynamite garnered 846,000 viewers.

Bandido was wearing a body suit and he looked just like Jushin Thunder Liger.

Bryan Danielson continues to shine on commentary, where he was putting over Wheeler Yuta’s growth. Yuta once again got a pinfall victory as AEW is clearly setting him up for something. Could Wheeler Yuta be the man to dethrone Orange Cassidy?

Jay White and Juice Robinson took turns bullying Tony Schiavone, whom White did not let out of his grasp.

Fans sided with the heel Bullet Club Gold, to the point where they popped when Jay White issued a facetious invitation for FTR to join the stable.

Juice Robinson laid out Dax Harwood with a loaded punch. The ammunition was a handful of quarters.

Tony Khan announced CM Punk in a backstage segment where fans give a loud, mixed reaction. Like him or not, CM Punk’s return is desperately needed from AEW. I wonder if he’ll come back as a babyface or a heel.

Big Bill blew a great babyface comeback early in this match as AEW continues to heat him up.

In addition to Wheeler Yuta, Swerve Strickland is on the short list of AEW stars to dethrone Orange Cassidy. Lord knows AEW could use some soul in its world title ranks.

Kris Statlander cut an emotional backstage, pre-taped promo coming off of her bogus win over Jade Cargill.

The Acclaimed challenged the House of Black to a rematch so that Daddy Ass could win some gold in AEW.

Between The Acclaimed vying for the Trios Championships and Swerve in the mix for the AEW International Title, AEW seems to be working feverishly to crown a Black champion by Juneteenth.
