CM Punk Makes a Shocking Revelation About AEW and Owen Hart Foundation’s Partnership

AEW is now proving to be a genuine threat to WWE in terms of ratings and viewership. Recently, AEW also honored former WWE superstar Owen Hart by forming a partnership with The Owen Hart Foundation.

Owen Hart is a former WWE wrestler and brother of the WWE legend, Bret Hart. Owen died in 1999 because of injuries he suffered while performing a risky stunt at Over the Edge Pay-per-view.

Recently, in an interview with Heelturn- Der SPORT1 Wrestling Podcast, CM Punk talked about the collaboration between AEW and The Owen Hart Foundation.

Punk revealed that he knew about this collaboration from beforehand, but claimed that it hit him like a truck when he read the press release about the collaboration between AEW and The Owen Hart Foundation.

He said, “I knew about it beforehand, but it still hit me like a truck when I read the press release just because I think it is such a staggering, monumental bridge. I think, it goes a long way to show and prove that Martha always wanted Owen’s memory to be revered and she always wanted his legacy preserved.”

“Now, the fans can embrace Owen again, like they have always wanted to. Martha can embrace the fans and support Owens’ legacy like she has always wanted to,” Punk added.

Punk also claimed that there wasn’t an outlet or place to do it before, but now there is. The former WWE Champion was even emotional while reading the press release.
