CM Punk sees a lot of similarities between Darby Allin and Chicago Blackhawks rookie Connor Bedard.
All Elite Wrestling‘s CM Punk recently sat down with Justin Barrasso of Sports Illustrated. When asked who he believes is the Connor Bedard of the AEW locker room, Punk pointed to Darby Allin.
“It’s Darby Allin,” CM Punk said. “He’s still fairly young, and he always makes chicken salad out of chicken sh–. He’s got that ‘It Factor,’ and he’s really getting comfortable. We had a whole big promo segment a few weeks ago [on Collision], and I thought he shined.
“That made me super proud. He has a ton to offer, as long as he doesn’t kill himself jumping over his house in a f—— monster truck or something like that.”
Darby Allin has a busy two weeks ahead of him as he’s currently scheduled to compete on Dynamite, All In, and All Out.
