It's in AEW's best interest to put the belt on Phil in order to draw a bigger audience. Change my mind.

I agree with you.
I don't want the belt on CM Punk, I don't even like CM Punk... but I reckon it'd raise viewership.

I don't like Punk, not in this or any other reality. But I can't deny he's a draw in the company, and to a casual viewing audience who knows nothing about the previous seven years of his life might think he's cool and talented. Plus if that HBO Max deal ever goes through, you've got 70+ million people exposed to AEW's existence, and some former wrestling fans not knowing of his seven years away from the business look at Punk and say, "Holy shit CM Punk's back? Damn I gotta see this." The latter is just speculation at this point due to the merger, but it's wishful thinking.

It's clear that AEW needs to work more on their homegrown talent if they want them to be championship material, I mean seriously:

Hangman was a glorified tag along and arguably made a bigger splash in AEW than anywhere else. The problem is that, despite two years of build, he was never ready for the belt. I guess the closest possible "AEW original" that the belt might fit would be MJF, but we might have to wait until Punk feels like dropping the strap.
