We have an update to pass along regarding the AEW status of Colt Cabana after his Dynamite return this week.
On this week\'s episode of AEW Dynamite, Colt Cabana made his return to take on Chris Jericho for the Ring Of Honor (ROH) World Championship. He came up just short, losing to Jericho after a Code Breaker.
Mike Johnson of PWInsider offered an update on the situation. Johnson reports that Cabana\'s Dynamite appearance was planned as a one-off event, and he\'s still a part of the Ring Of Honor roster.
Cabana\'s return was not about him returning to the AEW roster, but rather about Jericho simply knocking off another Ring Of Honor name.
Some speculated that Cabana\'s return was framed to be a shot at CM Punk amidst Punk\'s current issues with AEW, and expected departure from the promotion. If it was, Johnson doesn\'t expect anyone to admit it.
However, WrestleVotes did offer up a report on the situation, noting that Cabana\'s appearance on Dynamite did not go unnoticed by WWE. The report could be indicating that WWE could swoop in and scoop up Punk for a return should things between him and AEW ultimately come to a close.

Of course, given how bad things ended between Punk and WWE in 2014, repairing such a relationship could prove difficult.
