Back to the arena, CM Punk makes his entrance.

Excalibur speculates that Punk suffered an injury during his match on last Wednesday's "Dynamite". Punk is walking with a slight limp.

Punk gets in the ring and takes a microphone. He says when he got to the arena every bone in his body was telling him to go home and be with his wife and dog. But he felt everyone deserved an explanation. He says he promised he would give his all in AEW until his wheels fell off.

Punk said he has good news and bad news.

He says the last thing he wanted to do was let anyone down. He says he has loved every second he's been in the ring. He says it's been a gift he never thought he'd experience again.

He says the bad news is that he's injured and needs surgery. He says a couple of things are broken but the biggest thing is his heart.

He says the good news is that the wheels are still there but they haven't fallen off. He says one of them is broken.

Punk addresses the AEW Championship. He says he doesn't want to hold things up in AEW. He says he told Tony Khan he would relinquish the title but Khan feels this is just a bump in the road.

Punk says the "get back" is gonna be bigger than the setback. He says he's champion for a reason. He says he'll be back bigger, faster, and hungrier than ever before and he'll prove why he's the best in the world.

It's unclear if Punk will relinquish the title. Jericho muttered that just days after Punk won the title he'll have to relinquish it as they went to the commercial break.

Back from the break, Mark Henry is chatting with Dante Martin and Scorpio Sky. Martin is feeling confident with Matt Sydal in his corner. Sky says he'll kick Martin's teeth down his throat.
