Yeowch: CM Punk Reveals New Details About Injury, Worse Than Previously Reported

That doesn’t sound good. There are all kinds of ways for a wrestler to get hurt and some of them can be rather serious. Some of the injuries are things that take place instantly during the course of a match while others are things that build up over time. Then there are the fluke injuries when a wrestler isn’t even active in the ring. One of the top stars in wrestling today is dealing with a combination of both and it was a little more serious than we thought.

According to PWInsider.com, AEW World Champion CM Punk appeared at the AEW panel at the San Diego Comic Con and addressed his current foot injury. Punk revealed that his foot was “shattered” on June 2 and he is having to learn how to walk again. Punk was also said to be icing his foot and wearing a walking boot at the convention. It is not clear when he will be allowed to return to the ring.

Opinion: That makes things all the worse and hopefully things get better for Punk in a hurry. It could be a long time before Punk is able to get back in the ring and that makes things a little complicated for the title situation. Punk has more than just a single issue and he seems to be in for a pretty lengthy recovery process. That could shake up the title scene, as several months off is a long time for an Interim Champion. Either way, it will be worth the wait to get Punk back in the ring.

What do you think of Punk? What do you want to see him do when he gets back? Let us know in the comments below.
