Commentators not uttering a single word is the best thing that can happen to a returning legend, let the home audience enjoy the pure emotion and jubilation of the arena crowd.
Thank God Jericho wasn't on commentary.! He nearly talked over Fuego's moment last week! I couldn't trust him not to talk over this. But I BET this was a time when Tony Khan gave an order in the headset. Cause he's wanted Punk since the beginning; he would have wanted it to be as organic as possible. Props to the team. Everyone was so crisp and did a great job on that episode, including J.R. Despite it being a 4-man booth, it didn't feel like it at all.
I was lucky enough to be in the crowd for this. I’ve been to 11 WrestleMania’s, over 200 wrestling shows in my life... and I’ve NEVER experienced an atmosphere like this before. And never will again.
@@ChrisLengyelMagic louder. First time my ears have ever actually hurt from a pop. And I was in the building for Brock’s return, among other huge pops. Never felt anything come close to this.
@@newworldorder568 Yes! If Tony would've just learn on how to properly become a boss and control his own company, all of this wouldn't have happened in the first place.

It’s refreshing having a commentary team that doesn’t ruin a genuinely awesome moment by simply letting the moment play itself out and just adding a few words to acknowledge the incredible event we’re all witnessing.
This is still AEW’s greatest moment. It produced the most viral moment in AEW history. And the production on this entrance has never been topped. The production on this made AEW look like the big leagues and they’ve never replicated anything like this since.
I still say Punk showing up that night on rampage was the "worst kept secret".. and watching on TV, it was hard to keep from screaming like crazy at the TV since my wife was already sleeping.
The crowd, the emotion, the look on his face, the music playing in the background, Chicago chanting his name. This is truly one of the greatest moments in wrestling history, i got goosebumps and even tears.
Absolutely. To me this is equal to the Edge moment at the Royal Rumble. But unfortunately the Edge moment has some idiot going "ooooohhhj myyyyyy" over the top of it.
This Pop was unreal! it was not only emotion, expectation, and happiness from the fans, but also heart, feelings, and passion... it was beautiful. AEW has begun a new chapter now, and only the sky is the limit!!

@@bdove2007Nope. Punk sold out the damn United Center off A RUMOR that he’d be there. No wrestler in AEW history has ever garnered that big of a pop.

@bdove2007 then how is it Aew has yet to recover from cM Punk? How is it this video is 18 million and nothing AEW has created and produced has ever come close to this??? CM Punk left a crater in his wake when it came to AEW, even Cody's departure wasn't as traumatic as Punk's departure. He was their greatest merch seller, brought ratings and sold out arenas with just his name alone. AEW has yet to recovering the sad fact is the Young Bucks, Chris Jericho, Hangman Adam Page, Colt Cabana, and Jack Perry are the ones that took away Cm punk from aew, as well as Tony Khan not having a spine
2011: CM Punk breaks the internet 2019: CM Punk breaks the internet again 2021: CM Punk breaks the internet again. 2023: CM Punk breaks the internet once again 12 years later and it's crazy
2021 is peak AEW. I remember after his AEW debut the AEW Shop website went down because of multiple orders to buy his new shirt. That's how crazy it is.

Dude, I don't remember when something related to wrestling had me literally turn monke in my house. I was laughing, crying, and clapping like mad. This was the best thing that happened in a looooong time and I will be forever grateful for it. It's a good time to be a wrestling fan.
Bro AEW is the reason I went back to wrestling , trust me bro.. Punk left around 2014 and I went with him lol WWE’s product was and still is not as good as AEW
Forget motivational quotes. Forget TED Talks. Forget protein shakes, a keto diet. Forget waking up and facing the East or West or whatever your preference is. Just watch this. It'll wake up your SOUL!
When you cannot hear Punk's music, THAT POP is an Earth-destroying pop for someone who is greatly, deeply, sorely, and seriously missed. That is the one and only pop that will stand out to me.
Imagine if Cody and Punk never left AEW and the ownership was mature enough to get everyone on the same page. What a different wrestling world we would be living in today
Mark Henry’s “holy shit” when they showed the guy crying was awesome, I don’t think the people who knew this was happening had any idea the reaction would be this thunderous
Also The Young Bucks: Let's drive this company into the ground because of our inability to understand the crowd does not want anything to do with us and we are a detriment to this company... oh wait.. neither Hogan or the Bucks got that memo.. oh well.. AEW has never once ever failed to learn from history and subsequently been doomed to repeat it. In fact, they repeat most spots literally to a tee without reinvention or even an ounce of awareness.
@@GameTesterDev he honestly could’ve came out to no music and the crowd still would’ve roared! I did like that theme as well but I don’t know, I think Cult of Personality defines him better.
This never gets old, despite how it ended with AEW, this moment will live on forever. Hopefully one day we get to see them bury the hatchet so we can celebrate how great this was again.
Notice how the commentators allowed the reaction to last by not ruining it with the "oh myyyy." They waited for a minute and a half before speaking! Let us sink in that moment loved it!
All he wanted was 1 Wrestlemania main event. But no they gave it to Bootista who hadnt wrestled in 4 years but he instantly wins the Rumble and gets that Mania main event before Punk does? Ridiculous. And lets not forget Rock vs Cena a match that was billed "once in a lifetime" but they did it two years in a row. Punk deserved a Mania main event.
Not even that, he said wanted 1 main event, which he more than deserved. 7 years later they’re about to give Roman Noodles his 6th Wrestlemania main event. Absolute clowns lmao.
1:53 One of, if not, the greatest camera angles/shots in professional wrestling history. Not only do we see CM Punk just absorbing the whole thing in but we see the fans pouring it out to him. Beautiful. You can’t write this, produce it, or sell it. This is just a magical moment no one will ever forget.
There's a reason why people love this guy. He's the guy that showed real passion for the art pro wrestling. He knows how people feel. Just like Daniel Bryan
Tell ya bub, I am 43, been watching wrestling since the early 80's. I haven't heard a pop like that since the attitude era, and maybe of all time. Makes me wanna watch AEW!

The dude crying is literally the heart of a wrestling fan
...or someone who really needs a girlfriend.
@@ZEUSDAZ they’re the same thing
I was crying and felt like I’m five years old again listening to this theme song
If I were that guy, I'd be so embarrassed. Jeez.
Or someone in their mom’s basement, who steals her WiFi, and pays no rent🎶🎵
So many years of People chanting, "CM Punk" and AEW really made it happen.

Damn can’t believe after 5 years I’m gonna watch wrestling again just because of this man
Welcome back. :)
Cm punk is the one who made me watch wrestling he truly is best in the world 😍😍
Bro AEW is the reason I went back to wrestling , trust me bro.. Punk left around 2014 and I went with him lol WWE’s product was and still is not as good as AEW
Welcome back! You’re gonna love this company! It’s wonderful
SAME! 🙌
0:14 Punk will win the 2025 rumble with this kinda reaction🔥🔥🔥
😂😂😂
It's becoming part of my routine to watch this at least once a day.
Mines too
Good for health
Forget motivational quotes.
Forget TED Talks.
Forget protein shakes, a keto diet.
Forget waking up and facing the East or West or whatever your preference is.
Just watch this. It'll wake up your SOUL!
@@Gaigai275 good for the soul, horrible for my ears
Same here
CM Punk had a smile tonight we haven’t seen in many many years.
Are you here for your entertainment or his smile?
@@sahil47 both good
@@sahil47 This was entertaining shut up weirdo
@@sahil47 I am here to see Cm Punk happy again
Because he failed everywhere else once he left wrestling lol and this is the only place he’s relevant
When you cannot hear Punk's music, THAT POP is an Earth-destroying pop for someone who is greatly, deeply, sorely, and seriously missed. That is the one and only pop that will stand out to me.
I swear at first I thought something was wrong with the audio. I didn't realize how freakin loud that pop was!!
Yeah at first I didnt knew if its even "Cult of personality"... the pop was just another level
Nah, AEW’s mic’s are just fucked up I think.
I can't remember a pop that stood out more. I've never seen a 5 minute pop.
@My2cents karen has been detected
Imagine if Cody and Punk never left AEW and the ownership was mature enough to get everyone on the same page. What a different wrestling world we would be living in today
They almost could’ve made it man.
I think it’s a rap for them now to be honest.
@@FleepacShakura wrap? Yeah selling out wembley they declaring bankrupcty

@@uncleroku8962AEW is here to stay ❤
@@uncleroku8962 not really. The only reason it’s still afloat is because Tony has billions to just throw away
I don’t care what anyone says, this is the best return pop ever.
The rour from the crowd at the beginning is incredible
@@chrismonks592 I agree
@@chrismonks592 I was at a lot of sporting events in my life and in person. And I ain’t even there and I can tell it’s something special
Austin got this weekly
@@liamdunphy7496 truth
Mark Henry’s “holy shit” when they showed the guy crying was awesome, I don’t think the people who knew this was happening had any idea the reaction would be this thunderous
Its Chicago....how could it not be!
Duh
That’s a genuine response from Henry too , captures the moment for sure!
@@ronhernandez9198 Oli Davis and the gang started crying when this happened lol I think we all did
dude must the most untouched virgin ever hahaha we all love punk but grow up mate
@@saslightadjustments exactly - I promise you Mark Henry’s “oh shit” reaction was out of embarrassment
Damn I can’t stop watching this shit
Same bro.
Agreed
I've watched this damn near 10x
Same
You guys are so controllable it's laughable. Like children.
I stg
The Young Bucks: That doesn’t work for us, brother
Also The Young Bucks: Let's drive this company into the ground because of our inability to understand the crowd does not want anything to do with us and we are a detriment to this company... oh wait.. neither Hogan or the Bucks got that memo.. oh well.. AEW has never once ever failed to learn from history and subsequently been doomed to repeat it. In fact, they repeat most spots literally to a tee without reinvention or even an ounce of awareness.
I got chills when JR said "This building hasn't shook like this since Michael Jordan was here. This is Jordan-esque!"
It definitely shook like that in 2015 when the Hawks won the Cup on home ice, not to take away from the moment! So glad Punk is back
I don't think that meant anything to anyone outside of north America
@@czbrat This is a product based in North America. What is your point?
@Young Shots I do think ice hockey is a pretty canadian thing, but certainly not hockey.
Facts had to rewind that part a few times
The crowd are wild and the best in the world is back
Monopoly out of the window 😀
*History was made today!*
WAS wild.
@MikeSwaggVlog Chris Jericho vs CM Punk winner is the best in the world
@MikeSwaggVlog at what he does
Everyone’s talking about the pop but I’m just glad he kept his Cult of Personality entrance theme. That was and is one of my favorites.
@serry ciok that’s cool af to hear bro i wondered how people outside the wrestling bubble viewed this.
I actually wanted him to return with This Fire Burns... But oh well.
@@GameTesterDev he honestly could’ve came out to no music and the crowd still would’ve roared! I did like that theme as well but I don’t know, I think Cult of Personality defines him better.
❤️❤️❤️
@@constellations9347 agree, This brought back 2014 memories hearing Cult of personality again
One of the loudest pops you'll ever hear
CM Punk's debut is trending 1 on YT. The promo he made is trending 2 on YT. I'm pretty sure a lot of people missed you, Punk. Welcome Back.
Yeah and lil Nas x trends #1 too when he twerks on devil
Roman looks like clown 🤡 saying “Punk won’t move the needle” 😂🤷🏻♂️
@@Marcellus-ro4ko That did not age well at all
Also still number 1 on Twitter right now.
Yeah and lil nas x has millions of fans. Im not one of em but you dont get the #1 trending spot if you dont move the needle
Punk jumping into the crowd like he’s never been away 😂
Cena and Reigns would destroy this clown with the mic😂😂😂
What a rock star
I cannot stop watching this. This crowd is probably the biggest crowd pop ever imo.
I know like 500 of those views are from me alone 🤣😂🤣😂
For real
Same!!
@UCb0vSgZiPq_N_Tscr4RPA-A he said in his opinion it was the loudest crowd pop cmon dick read
2nd biggest, the 1st biggest is when hardy Boyz showed up at wreslemania
This never gets old, despite how it ended with AEW, this moment will live on forever. Hopefully one day we get to see them bury the hatchet so we can celebrate how great this was again.
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥✌🏿❤️
IT'S CLOBBERIN' TIME!
Thanks for making one of the greatest entrance songs of all time 🔥🔥
There's no CM Punk without Cult of Personality !
U guys are legend.....thanks for cult of personality
hey, thank you for such legendary song 😀
Notice how the commentators allowed the reaction to last by not ruining it with the "oh myyyy." They waited for a minute and a half before speaking! Let us sink in that moment loved it!
JR and Tazz knew what was up.
@@GamingCreed47 Cause they get it! Say what you want about Taz but he doesn't destroy a moment..
Or Jr, probably the best commentator of all time. No disrepect to Taz though, he's great. Lol Corey Graves and Michael Cole who?
Oh my can it be? It is, CM Punk has returned. It's been rumoured for weeks that we have signed the hottest free agent
@@WeTheCave and JBL listing all the belts to Maggle
2:21 - this guy cried because it was worth waiting 7 years for this moment, what a legend
@@Jeff_Pryce you fucking killed him dude
@@Jeff_Pryce lmaoooooo, bet u touch his nerve with this one lmaoo
Guy: Cries
Mark Henry: Holy Shit!
😂😂
That moment will be remember forever.
@@Jeff_Pryce you made him delete his comment 💀
More people have viewed this video (19m) than have watched Rampage since this happened.
This wasn’t just a return or a debut. This was a celebration. We’ve Missed You Punk!
i am better wrestler i have proof
Cm is Legend🤩🤩😍😍
It's not a return, but you missed him?🤣
@@AxxLAfriku shut up
@@geodude6725 he said isn’t just
“I will go somewhere and get more over, because I know I can.”
-CM Punk, 2014
That Colt Cabana interview manifested into reality. Punk knew his worth and stayed true
Well it took 7.5 years but here he is again.
All he wanted was 1 Wrestlemania main event. But no they gave it to Bootista who hadnt wrestled in 4 years but he instantly wins the Rumble and gets that Mania main event before Punk does? Ridiculous. And lets not forget Rock vs Cena a match that was billed "once in a lifetime" but they did it two years in a row. Punk deserved a Mania main event.
Not even that, he said wanted 1 main event, which he more than deserved. 7 years later they’re about to give Roman Noodles his 6th Wrestlemania main event. Absolute clowns lmao.
@@zxr8ii is roman a draw?
1:53 One of, if not, the greatest camera angles/shots in professional wrestling history. Not only do we see CM Punk just absorbing the whole thing in but we see the fans pouring it out to him. Beautiful. You can’t write this, produce it, or sell it. This is just a magical moment no one will ever forget.
Well said! Goosebumps every time I watch it!
You can see he almost cracked in that moment he was so overwhelmed.
Have you seen the production team video of this? Unbelievable
Man I was there, this was truly the best fucking night of my life 😭❤️
Well said
I like edge’s facials at the 2020 rumble
CM Punk fan or not... This has got to be one of the biggest ovations/crowd pops in the history of wrestling.
Tony Khan cries himself to sleep every night rewatching this video...
There's a reason why people love this guy. He's the guy that showed real passion for the art pro wrestling. He knows how people feel. Just like Daniel Bryan
Ya your right
Agreed but Daniel won't get a pop like this he'll definitely get a big one but not at this caliber
Bryan Danielson, dude.
Are you saying previous guys before him didn't show "real passion" as well?
Maybe but do do the rest undertaker wrestled for 30 years even when injured Cana is still good and works hard when he is around
If you listen closely, Living Colour's 'Cult of Personality' is playing.
Haha. Best Post yet. 👌
What a comment.
I thought everyone knew this
@@mathsteiner it’s a reference to how loud the crowd was
Is *that* what that was?
Tony Khan: YOU GOT TO GIVE THE PEOPLE WHAT THEY WANT!!!
*CM Punk and Ice cream bars for everyone*
Cena and Reigns would destroy this clown with the mic😂😂😂
What a nice moment for CM Punk to bring back the ice cream bars. Tazz was struggling to eat his at commentary lol.
Tony Khan really gives the people what they want!
He is literally in tears that even after 7 years he gets a pop like that
This is the AEW moment people will be talking about in 25 years. Goosebumps everywhere.
Facts
My favourite cm punk match is cm punk vs cena at money in the bank
Might be my favorite match of all time
And that was one of the best storylines
Lol
This aged horribly
Ahahahahah
People can talk crap about wrestling. But this moment is one of those that makes me happy to be a fan of it!
Tell ya bub, I am 43, been watching wrestling since the early 80's. I haven't heard a pop like that since the attitude era, and maybe of all time. Makes me wanna watch AEW!
@@wtbeecher ive been a fan since i was a a kid in the 90s . Even though ive drifted in n out. Ive always kinda kept up with it. This was one of those amazing once in a lifetime moments.
@@wtbeecher Dude, you GOTTA check out AEW! They've renewed my love of professional wrestling. I've been watching religiously since the mid-late 80's. IMHO they are the best going today
Insane to see such a packed AEW arena. Crazy how much things have changed in just a few years
AEW is at a crazy level now
Bryan Danielson is coming next
Yesssss
I believe the last time a promotion was this hot was WCW in 1997
@@Elkott bro if he does, this is literally gonna turn into a war again bro. It’s finnna bee littttt
Daniel Bryan, Bray Wyatt and Braun!
AEW is still trending in the top 2 spots on RUclips a full day and a half later. Even after Summerslam. The summer of Punk can't be stopped!
And may it last forever.
@Mr Wong Give them time. They're getting better.
Bruh brock and becky has arrived 😅😂✌️
@@mdmonjurulhasansimanto876 nope.. nope.. not there yet. WWEs literally getting desperate. Super desperate infact. They need to make a bigger statement than a return to keep up now.
....but he's not a draw. Lol ok Roman stay in your lane bro.
This moment is so legendary already, that people in 50 years will be coming here just to here this pop and feel this emotions again. Sooooo amazing. What a time to be alive
AEW really chose Jack Perry over CM Punk
Genuinely one of the greatest moments in wrestling history. Absolutely Insane Pop.
Definitely in my Top 5. This is one of those rare clips you occasionally come back to watch and take it all in again
@@AbhilashMonty indeed. Back for like the 4th time tk watch. Missed him
The drama, the buildup, the result.
Perfectly done.
The best moment in wrestling...the second is Austin saving the Rock
No it’s not it’s a guy walking into an arena of cheers how is that a greatest moment of wrestling
Don’t mind me, just re watching the “good times”
Came here for the same thing. The good old days where we had punk, hookhausen, wardlow was crushing it and the house of black reunited 😢
Me too, I was there for this 😢
felt 1000%
BAMS!!
I do the same not this video mind you but when Kelly Kelly returned for the Royal rumble. Chokes me up everytime.
Who’s watched this at least 10 times now and thought “I still can’t believe this”
bro I am!! I am in tears
I'm just thinking mickey gall cause he beat the shit out of cm joke
Bro, I been a fan since he was in ECW. I’m so mad that I didn’t watch this Live. I didn’t watch because I didn’t believe it. But I am happy as hell that he’s back.
This is something I never though I would see
Count me in.
I haven't had any kind of emotional connection towards professional wrestling for the last few years.
But this right here made me cry and I'm not ashamed to admit that!
Don't worry at least you are not crying alone respect man
same here buddy
it was really an emotional moment
Geek
Me too dude
There better be a clip involving this in your next pokemon crack video!
The fact that this is trending, shows how much people still loves cm punk and forever will.
It's NUMBER 1 ON TRENDING, freaking insane!!!!
Still trending 24 hours later too 🤯🤯
It's number 3 in Italy even now. What in the world is happening
CM Punk debuts to AEW. I want a dream match CM Punk vs Kenny Omega.
