AEW reportedly planning to bring back several absent stars ahead of rumored Collision show
AEW may have the biggest summer in its short history this year. Shows like Forbidden Door, All In, and the debuting Collision on TNT are set to take place, with the latter being a big reason why some All Elite Wrestling stars are returning to the company.
It has been rumored for some time that AEW would be getting another two-hour primetime show in the form of Collision, which is set to debut on June 17th on TNT.
The debut episode is shaping up to be one of the biggest nights in company history as it looks as if CM Punk will make his long-awaited return to All Elite Wrestling. However, he won't be the only one returning.
Expect CM Punk's return to AEW to be announced in the coming days.

Fightful Select has reported that previously absent talent are set to be brought back to All Elite Wrestling, with Collision's debut being why they are appearing now rather than earlier.
The report also stated that while younger talent will benefit from more TV time on Collision, the returning stars will also benefit from a second show equal to Dynamite.
Stars like Miro and Thunder Rosa, who hadn't been seen since the summer of 2022, made their surprising returns on the May 10th edition of Dynamite, leading many to believe that their new home will be on Saturdays rather than Wednesdays.
There is also a major debut or return planned for AEW Collision's debut episode
It seems as if CM Punk won't be the only appearance that people will be talking about on June 17th, as it has also been reported that there will be either a major return or debut at the United Center.
WON: The AEW Collision debut on June 17 from the United Center in Chicago, which would be the return of CM Punk along with what is expected to be "either another major name debut or return".
Very interesting. https://t.co/8R8skmrJrJ
