After over a decade away from the WWE, CM Punk has made a stunning comeback. At Saturday night’s American Survivor Series tournament, fans let out a loud cheer upon hearing his theme song.
He first quit WWE in 2014, and since then, he has made no secret of his displeasure with the company’s poor storylines and inadequate attention to his health.
CM Punk made an unexpected comeback at Survivor Series on Saturday, November 25, after the Men’s War Games event.
Minutes before the programme ended, the 45-year-old startled the Chicago fans in his hometown by entering the arena to an incredibly loud cheer following the men’s “War Games” battle, the main event. In the next days and weeks, a lot of stories about how he made his way back to the WWE after nine years away will undoubtedly surface, but a lot of fans are also curious about possible dream bouts that may take place in 2024.
Static noise started before ‘Cult of Personality’ played in Chicago’s All State arena, just as the team consisting of Cody Rhodes, Jey Uso, Sami Zayn, Seth Rollins, and the returning Randy Orton were celebrating their win.
With one last shocking return to the fans following Randy Orton’s, tonight’s WWE Survivor Series WarGames came to a spectacular finish. That comeback came from none other than CM Punk, who has been out of the WWE for ten years but is coming returning after spending time with AEW. Triple H discussed Punk’s comeback during the post-event press conference, revealing that it happened very swiftly and that very few people were aware of it. In addition, Triple H stated that nobody is the same as they were ten years ago and expressed their happiness to see CM Punk return to the WWE, saying “It’s where he belongs.”
According to Johnson, after they broke the ice, the agreement came together fast, and WWE views it as a fresh start. It was thought to postpone CM Punk‘s comeback until after the WWE Royal Rumble, according to the article. Still, there was a sense that information would have spread within WWE, increasing the likelihood of the plans being leaked.
Johnson said that CM Punk‘s comeback was hurried so he could make the 20-minute journey to the arena and arrive at the last minute. Before Saturday, nothing had been confirmed regarding Punk’s participation in the concert.
