I think that would've been bigger news considering Punk outsold Cena when Cena was still by far the n°1 merch seller in the company. Like, if AJ is drawing to that level I feel it would've had more impact, no?
Then again he got a Mcmahon match and is moving to RAW so that kinda makes sense...
SD need Rusev and Rusev needs SD. We all win.
