His ego he thinks he's equal to John Cena and Roman and in a company like AEW he can piss over everyone without a strong leader like Vince who won't take his shit.

He's been a cancer in every fed he's worked for.
You just know he would take AEW's antiwwe narrative to the max and sink his buzz sucking fangs into every trending talent so he could rebuild his ego and tell himself that he's a real wrestler again because some jap carried him to an above average match

the only real derailments from Punk himself were Darby and Page, besides that it's mostly been AEW undercard syndrome

wants a match with Okada, Tanahashi, and Ospreay for no particular reason other than those three just so happen to be some of the top guys in New Japan and he wants to steal their buzz while they try to carry his unathletic ass

Dude has had "ring rust" for his entire career. It's almost unbelievable how he fooled smarks into believing that he's a great worker.

Named dropped by Danielson for Blackpool combat club: "What if we trained Yuta, Danielson, a guy like Lee Moriarty." Then stuck with Dante martin briefly, Sydal, Gresham/ROH hell, now in the new Stokley stable with Ethan Page and Ass boys.

But this isn't true, at the time AEW basically just said they couldn't justify paying that much money, this was a time when their TV deal was way worse than their current one so bringing in more high cost guys was a liability they didn't want to take.
