KENTA wants the bag.
On June 8, Fightful Select reported that CM Punk has been discussed as a potential opponent for KENTA at AEW x NJPW Forbidden Door. This comes just one day after KENTA tweeted that he needs to be paid the right amount of money to have a match against CM Punk.
Now, KENTA has reacted to the report, telling Tony Khan to give him the bag.
Oh hell no
