Tony Khan Celebrates Anniversary Of CM Punk Winning The WWE Championship At Money In The Bank 2011
One of CM Punk’s crowning moments happened on this day 11 years ago.
When CM Punk won the WWE Championship at Money In The Bank 2011, it sent shockwaves through the injury as he walked out through the crowd with the title and as far as fans knew, Punk would not be returning. He would return a few weeks later of course, but the image of Punk blowing a kiss to Vince McMahon remains one of the most iconic wrestling images of all time.
Tony Khan took to Twitter on Sunday and celebrated the anniversary of the event.
11 years ago today @CMPunk set the wrestling world ablaze. He’s every bit as good today & he’s the @AEW World Champion. Check out The First Dance, All Out 2021, Full Gear 2021, Revolution 2022, + Double or Nothing 2022 to see why & how CM Punk proved he’s still Best in the World
