Rocky Romero Wouldn’t Be Against CM Punk Joining NJPW

Rocky Romero discussed the potential of CM Punk joining NJPW in a recent interview with Fightful, noting that he is open to the idea.

Punk remains on the free agent market following his AEW release due to a backstage altercation with Jack Perry at All In 2023. WWE is reportedly not interested in bringing him back.

Romero said, “You never know. Obviously, we didn’t really get to do many crossovers when Punk was with AEW. There was supposed to be that Tanahashi and Punk match that never happened. I think Punk coming and doing Wrestle Kingdom or a big show like that could be, I think, great for our product. Obviously, getting fresh eyes and everything that he brings to merchandise and everything else. I wouldn’t be opposed to it at all. I know Tony pretty well. I would probably give him the heads up like, ‘Hey, this is what’s going on,’ but I don’t think he would have much to say about it. It’s another company. He doesn’t own New Japan, and even though we have a great partnership, I think it’s fine and he’d be cool with it and AEW would be cool with it.“
