CM Punk was conspicuous by his absence from AEW programming this week, and there might be a perfectly reasonable explanation.
In the March 18 edition of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Dave Meltzer wrote that Punk will participate in the filming for the second season of the STARZ series “Heels“. Punk previously appeared in two episodes as the character “Ricky Rabies.”
Meltzer also noted that the filming will take place over the next possible weeks. It’s possible Punk’s involvement was the reason why he missed AEW TV this week. Punk hasn’t appeared on AEW TV since he beat MJF in a Dog Collar Match at AEW Revolution on March 6, though he had a taped promo on the following episode of Dynamite.
“Heels” premiered in August 2021, and its first season spanned eight episodes. STARZ subsequently renewed the show for a second season.
