CM Punk Talks Wrestling Daniel Garcia, AJ Lee Joining Women Of Wrestling

CM Punk did an interview with Sports Illustrated to talk about his match against Danny Garcia on tonight’s episode of AEW Rampage as well as his wife, AJ Lee, joining the Women Of Wrestling promotion as an Executive Producer and color commentator. Here are the highlights: 

Garcia: 

“Daniel Garcia is light-years beyond his age. He’s just shy of half my age, and I can only compare him to when I was that young. He’s in a better spot than when I was that age. Everything builds off a great foundation, and he’s very fundamentally sound. He’s trained by Pepper Parks [AEW wrestler The Blade], who is an excellent f—— wrestler. He’s respectful, he listens, and he’s not corny and doesn’t kiss a–. He’s everything I possibly want in a wrestler on a television show. It’s going to be goddamn pro wrestling. I love that we did it in Philly, which has always been super great to me. I remember my debut pay-per-view in WWE with 18,000 maniacs in Philly chanting my name, to now where I’m at. This is where I need to be. This is where I belong, and we’re going to find out if Daniel Garcia belongs here, too.”

AJ Lee: 

“I’m very excited for her,” Punk says. “She’s doing what she wants to do. She’s going to get to write and use her voice to do something that she maybe thought she wouldn’t get the chance to do again. It’s no bumps, and it’s a chance to help foster and grow the next generation of females in wrestling. That’s a perfect, perfect spot for her.”
