WWE Hall of Famer makes a massive prediction about CM Punk's future
CM Punk's sacking and the aftermath has everyone, from sports analysts to the fans to even the legends of the business, talking. This includes WWE Hall of Famer Jeff Jarrett, who is known for his tremendous run in WCW and later on, in WWE. NWA, and now, in AEW. He had something to say about what he thinks is on the Voice of the Voiceless' mind now that the latter has been sacked.
Jarrett, speaking on the podcast My World, said that he doesn't know where Punk's headspace' is at when it comes to the question of whether he's done with the wrestling industry as a whole, and put forth the query whether Punk would ever think of starting a franchise of his own.
I don’t know his headspace. I don’t know any of that, but if I was a betting man, what’s the downside to doing something completely on his own?” Jarrett asked. “Name the card [his] way … He don’t want to be grinding every week, I don’t think. Do four shows a year — one on the east coast, one on the west coast, one in the midwest and his hometown, and pick another one and see what happens,” he said. (H/T ringsidenews)
