AEW Abandons CM Punk’s ‘Real’ World Title After Multiple Allegations

We now know that CM Punk is no longer part of AEW. He was released because of various accusations against him, and the final straw was a violent backstage fight with Jungle Boy.

This situation worried AEW owner Tony Khan about his safety, so he had to make the difficult decision to let go of CM Punk, who was one of the biggest stars in the company.

Despite high hopes when he first joined AEW, CM Punk’s time with the promotion only lasted for two years.

Just one day before the All Out PPV event in Chicago, Tony Khan decided to release CM Punk.

Luckily for AEW, there wasn’t a specific match featuring Punk that was advertised for the event. However, there were rumors that he might make a surprise appearance. Unfortunately, that didn’t happen because he was fired the day before.

Now, the question arises: What happened to the championship that CM Punk held at the time of his firing?

If you’ve guessed it, we’re talking about CM Punk’s version of the REAL World Championship, also known as the X Title or the Straight Edge Title.

The latest news on this matter is that AEW has completely abandoned CM Punk’s ‘Real’ World Title due to the multiple allegations against him.

This means that, just like Punk himself, his REAL World Title is now gone from the company entirely.

When Punk held the title, there were rumors that he would defend it on AEW Collision and PPVs until the right time came for the ultimate showdown between the current AEW Championship holder, Maxwell Jacob Friedman (MJF), and CM Punk to fight for both titles and create the Undisputed AEW World Championship.

However, following CM Punk’s departure from the company, Tony Khan has decided to remove the REAL World Championship once and for all.

According to reports, this means there will be no tournament or any plans for that title, and it’s now defunct within the company, just like CM Punk himself.
