The balance of power in the wrestling world suddenly looks a little different after Cena's big night, which heralded the future of the business in more ways than one.

In an Instagram post on Thursday, John Cena acknowledged Samoa Joe's tribute to him during Wednesday night's episode of AEW Dynamite.

However, one specific segment has sparked immediate conversation across the wrestling world, as CM Punk appeared to use the platform to take a veiled jab at his former employer, AEW, and specifically his old rival, “Hangman” Adam Page. At the 13-second mark of the video, the current World Heavyweight Champion appears on screen.
