All Elite Wrestling's (AEW) new Saturday show, which will be premiered starting in June, is expected to see a harder brand split, including the return of CM Punk to be the face of the show, Cultaholic Wrestling cited Wrestling Observer on Tuesday.

The new show is expected to be named "AEW Collision" and it would include talents who would like to start programming with Punk.

Andrew Zarian of Wrestling Observer said: "The plans have been put in place to possibly have a tentative Saturday show to be the 'soft' brand split. When I used that term yesterday on Mat Men, I was told that it's less soft than I'm putting out there. I guess there will be people that are predominantly on the other show, on the Saturday show."

The wrestling outlet's Bryan Alvarez also revealed that the roster split is being introduced to keep CM Punk and talents who want to work with him separately from those who do not.

Alvarez explained: "What I heard from the beginning any time this was brought up was there are people that don't want to work with CM Punk. They don't want to be in the building with him. So there is going to be a place where he can work and do his thing and there's going to be a place where the other people can work and do their thing.

"If you're a neutral party then conceivably you can work both shows and everything like that, but there's going to be certain people that are on one show and certain people that are going to be on the other show because they don't want to be anywhere near each other," Alvarez stated.
