Cody's the only person to really bring up AEW in WWE. Never by name directly, but in some of his return promos he's definitely alluded to AEW. And it was always in positive terms. Think Roman might've called them a glorified indy when he promo'd against Cody ahead of Mania but I can't remember. But that's about it.

Generally, feels like WWE wouldn't see the need to bring up/bury AEW but Punk might change things slightly. I doubt he'd go on a full shoot promo ot bring the company or anyone by name but he'd 100% do some sort of inside baseball reference. Maybe the "some people say they're scared for their life when I'm around" joke from Cage Fury. Just tough to imagine a guy like Punk not saying something about a company he had a bitter exit from.
