CM Punk made his AEW debut last Friday night on Rampage. On the latest episode of the What Happened When podcast, AEW commentator Tony Schiavone provided some backstage details regarding Punk's debut.
Schiavone revealed that everyone in the locker room gathered in the go-position to watch Punk's debut on the monitor and feel the energy in the building.
"He walks out of the go-position, everybody kind of bumps fists, we're all excited, Tony's excited and then, everybody starts to come out to the go-position because we had a monitor out there," Schiavone said. "I'm telling you, Kenny [Omega] was out there, The Young Bucks, everybody.
"They didn't want to sit in the back and watch it, they wanted to come out right behind the curtain and feel it, right? I'm going to be honest with you. It was one of those from the heart, just a** kickin' moment, it just was. So he did it and came back and people were so excited. Britt [Baker] was like beside herself that he mentioned her name."
