Cover Stars
The biggest early detail to leak may be that one Xtralife listing revealed the full AEW Fight Forever cover design just ahead of the official announcement.
As seen below, they unveiled a combo cover featuring CM Punk at the center with Kenny Omega, Chris Jericho, Jon Moxley, Jade, and Dr. Britt Baker D.M.D. around him.
However, the increasingly complicated situation with CM Punk's potential departure from All Elite Wrestling may see some changes.
Previously unveiled cover star CM Punk was missing entirely from the trailer, and that included a final image similar to previously shown box art for the game.
That potential cover now sits in limbo with the noted absence of CM Punk from the latest trailer.
