CM Punk is currently in a feud with MJF in AEW
CM Punk is currently feuding with MJF in AEW. The former WWE star initially interrupted Friedman and The Pinnacle on an episode of AEW Dynamite and has since gone back-and-forth with MJF.

The two men even engaged in a heated promo segment that kick-started AEW Dynamite a few weeks ago. On the latest episode, CM Punk teamed up with Sting and Darby Allin for a match against FTR and MJF, in a six-man tag team match.
The babyface team of Punk, Darby Allin, and Sting ended up winning the bout, however, Punk and Friedman's feud seems far from over. A singles match between the two men seems inevitable and is highly likely to take place down the road at some point.
