The wait for CM Punk’s in-ring return continues to build anticipation among WWE fans. The Straight Edge Superstar’s anticipated showdown with Drew McIntyre has been put on hold, but Punk has some exciting news to share with his fans. In a recent Instagram post, Punk announced that he will be featured in the upcoming WWE 2K24 video game as part of the “Punk Pack.”
The “Punk Pack” is a special bundle that includes Punk, along with ECW Hardcore TV legends Sandman, The Dudley Boyz, and the late Terry Funk. This news is a welcome distraction for fans eagerly awaiting Punk’s return to the ring.
In the meantime, Drew McIntyre appears to be shifting his focus towards a potential bout with World Heavyweight Champion Damian Priest. The Scottish Psychopath and the Punishment exchanged heated words on RAW, setting the stage for a potential championship clash. This development has sparked speculation about whether the WWE is adjusting its storyline to accommodate Punk’s temporary absence.
Despite the uncertainty surrounding Punk’s in-ring return, wrestling journalist Dave Meltzer recently reported that he is expected to return to competition sooner rather than later. According to Meltzer, Punk is on track to make his comeback in time for SummerSlam in August.
In a subtle jab at his rival, Punk took to social media to share a message directed at McIntyre. The post referenced McIntyre’s recent boast about being Punk’s “biggest fan,” a claim that Punk playfully acknowledged. TheStraight Edge Superstar also hinted at making McIntyre’s life “a living hell,” a promise that has only added fuel to the fire of their ongoing feud.
As the WWE Universe waits with bated breath for Punk’s return, one thing is certain – his presence in the WWE 2K24 video game is a welcome distraction. The “Punk Pack” is a must-have for fans of the Chicago native, and its release will undoubtedly whet the appetite of fans eagerly awaiting his return to the ring.
