CM Punk shares major update following The Elite's official announcement on AEW Dynamite

CM Punk's last appearance on AEW TV was at All Out, where he won the AEW World Championship by defeating Jon Moxley. On the latest edition of Dynamite, The Elite's return was announced for Full Gear following their alleged backstage brawl with Punk.

The former WWE Champion suffered a foot injury on the June 1 episode of Dynamite, where he teamed up with FTR to defeat Max Caster and The Gunn Club. After relinquishing the title and returning to action two months later, he confronted the Interim World Champion, Jon Moxley. The former AEW champion tore his left tricep at All Out.

The two-time AEW World Champion recently took to Instagram to share an update on his injury following The Elite's return announcement on Dynamite.

Over the screenshot of the training session, Punk wrote:

“First time doing road work since the broken foot. For anyone out there going through it: the light at the end of the tunnel is you.”

Kenny Omega & The Young Bucks' return was announced on Dynamite after being absent from the promotion for more than two months. The trio did not appear on the show, but a match graphic was displayed of The Elite and Death Triangle, making the trio's title match official for Full Gear. It was reported that The Elite was present backstage a few weeks ago.
