CM Punk’s electrifying return to RAW set the stage for potential showdowns and charming storylines, particularly involving Seth Rollins and Drew McIntyre.
Punk’s announcement of his involvement as a guest commentator for the Rollins vs. McIntyre match at WrestleMania 40 injected further anticipation into an already intense feud.
Speculation runs rife about Punk’s potential impact on the match between The Architect and The Scottish Warrior. With Punk’s return to in-ring action pending medical clearance, scenarios abound regarding his involvement.
One plausible scenario suggests Punk could disrupt the match, potentially targeting McIntyre as a precursor to their anticipated clash once Punk is cleared to compete.
Alternatively, if Punk seeks retribution against Rollins and McIntyre, aligning with Damian Priest, the current Money in the Bank holder, could be a strategic move.
Priest’s prolonged possession of the MITB briefcase adds intrigue to the unfolding narrative, with fans eagerly awaiting his cash-in.
If Punk assists Priest in successfully cashing in, it would deal a significant blow to Rollins and McIntyre, exacting revenge for Punk and sustaining the storyline until his in-ring return.
Beyond his feud with Rollins and McIntyre, Punk’s ambitions extend to clashes with other WWE megastars, including Roman Reigns and The Rock. Punk’s backstage declaration underscores his readiness to confront anyone who invokes his name, adding further depth to his potential rivalries in the WWE.
