CM Punk believes AEW star is the "best promo" in wrestling today
CM Punk believes that AEW star Eddie Kingston has the best mic skills in the world today. Kingston's believable ability on the microphone and his control and command over his craft have earned him widespread praise from AEW fans and made him a favorite of many.
During a Q&A session on his Twitter account, CM Punk was asked who's the best promo in wrestling today, to which he responded:
Punk was himself a well-regarded promo back in his days. His searing mic battles with John Cena, Jeff Hardy, and the infamous "Pipe Bomb" are still fresh in fans' memories.
For him to call Eddie Kingston the best promo in the wrestling business is a huge thing. A lot of people will now take notice of Kingston, if they haven't already.
Kingston's rivalry with former AEW Champion Jon Moxley in 2020, which resulted in a match between the two at Full Gear: 2020, featured some of his career-best promo work.

Since finishing their rivalry, Kingston and Moxley have teased joining hands in Tony Khan's promotion. It finally came to fruition at AEW: Revolution 2021, where Kingston came to the rescue of Moxley and saved him from an in-ring explosion.
The two displayed great in-ring chemistry during their match with The Good Brothers on AEW Dynamite a few weeks ago, and their backstage promo segments have been a treat to watch. They seem on course to challenge The Young Bucks for the AEW Tag Team Championships soon.
