CM Punk Reportedly 'Super Receptive' To Helping Other Talent In AEW

All reviews about CM Punk have been very positive

CM Punk has reportedly been 'super receptive' to talking to, helping and aiding other talent in All Elite Wrestling since joining the promotion. 

Punk has made himself at home in AEW since returning from his self-imposed wrestling exile in August and Wade Keller of PWTorch notes that, while Punk has his own separate locker room backstage in AEW, he has proven himself to be very cool about being approached and questioned by younger talent.

Keller said: "Punk is isolating himself in AEW in the sense that he has his own locker room. Cody has his own locker room. I think the Young Bucks have their own locker room. I don’t know about Kenny, but Cody and The Bucks don’t change with everyone else. 

"Bryan Danielson, by the way, changes with everyone else. He doesn’t have his own locker room. Punk does have his own locker room. Now for whatever it’s worth so does Darby. Some people just want to be with themselves and other people are more social. And Punk has long established that.

"However, unlike Cody, Punk is interacting more with the wrestlers. I’ve heard of multiple occasions of wrestlers saying they’ve come up to Punk with a question and he’s been super receptive. Like, ‘I got all the time in the world for you type approach. Not ‘Oh, I’m busy with my own stuff…’ The body language with Punk for people who have approached him is he’s been super cool.

"In fact, one younger wrestler on the roster told me ‘yeah, he’s been super chill and receptive since he’s got here. He’s a good dude.’ So all reviews on Punk are good.

"And all indications are he’s totally fine with MJF coming at him hard. He’s at a secure place in his life and he’s not sweating it even if MJF scores a few extra points more than Punk or if Punk is saying, ‘Hey Punk that’s the best you had last week just ripping on a local hockey team over and over?’ MJF’s gloves are off. He’s not holding back…

"Punk socially likes to have his own space as does Darby and Darby is not like a big shot. Punk and Cody and The Bucks also change on their own. That doesn’t define if you’re one of the boys but I will say Bryan Danielson, one of the boys. He’s just in there and wants to be around them. But Punk is available and receptive and by all indications, like I said, [Punk is] just getting really good reviews for how he comes across."
