Punk won the AEW World Championship by defeating Hangman Page at Double or Nothing 2022. However, shortly after, he was sidelined with an injury. In his absence, Jon Moxley became the interim AEW World Champion by defeating Hiroshi Tanahashi at Forbidden Door.
The Second City Saint finally made his return on the Quake By The Lake edition of Dynamite and confronted Moxley. The title unification bout was announced for this week’s Wednesday night show, where The Purveyor of Violence emerged victorious after Punk seemingly injured himself once again.
There has been some confusion about Moxley’s opponent for All Out after Punk potentially reaggravated his injury. However, Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer stated that a rematch between the two is the planned main event for the pay-per-view.

However, the former WWE manager expressed surprise at AEW not paying “enough attention” to the bout on Rampage:
It will be interesting to see if Tony Khan does go ahead with Jon Moxley vs. CM Punk II for the All Out pay-per-view.
