When CM Punk first came to AEW, he made it clear he wanted to help the young and hungry locker room and test himself against the superstars of tomorrow and he will get that opportunity on December 1 when he faces the TAIGASTYLE specialist.
Reacting to the news of the match on Twitter, Moriarty said he is excited but he is mostly focused on picking up his biggest victory so far.
Excited, but more importantly, focused.
