Who Was Samoa Joe's Mystery Challenger, The Golden Vampire?

On this week’s AEW Collision, ROH Television Champion Samoa Joe was scheduled to take on The Golden Vampire. A mysterious competitor dressed in all-gold with some fake vampire teeth logos. He kind of looked like a more tame Goldust. It was our first time seeing this mysterious character in AEW.

Before Joe could even get to the ring, The Golden Vampire attacked. It ended with a running knee into the corner and a Go To Sleep. Sound familiar? The Golden Vampire of course was CM Punk. Punk took off the mask and accepted Joe’s challenge for All In at Wembley next Sunday.

CM Punk is putting his Real World Championship on the line against Samoa Joe. I expect Punk to win the match and retain his Title. Unless his backstage issues are too serious, and then maybe he drops it and puts over his long-time friend, Samoa Joe.

Are you looking forward to this match? What did you think of the big reveal?
