Reports suggest that CM Punk will make an appearance on an upcoming WWE show leading up to WrestleMania XL in Philadelphia.
The 45-year-old made waves during this week’s Monday Night RAW with a fiery promo alongside Drew McIntyre and Seth Rollins.
With Rollins set to defend his World Heavyweight Championship against McIntyre at WrestleMania XL, Punk’s involvement adds an intriguing layer to the buildup.

Despite being on track to headline his first WrestleMania, Punk suffered a triceps injury during the Men’s Royal Rumble.
However, he made a splash on Monday’s RAW in Chicago, where it was announced that he would serve as the guest commentator for the World Heavyweight Championship match at WrestleMania.
A recent report from WrestlePurists indicates that Punk is slated to appear on the final episode of RAW before WrestleMania. While specifics about his appearance remain uncertain, fans are eager for any development involving the enigmatic star.
In other news, injured WWE star Braun Strowman shared his thoughts on Punk’s return to the company. Strowman, currently sidelined after neck fusion surgery, expressed readiness to work with Punk in the ring.
In an exclusive interview last December, the former Universal Champion praised Punk’s impact on ratings and affirmed his willingness to face him in the ring.
“Like I said, Punk’s fresh back in WWE after a 10-year hiatus. He’s causing a ruckus in the ratings. Whatever is good for business is good for me because, at the end of the day, the company’s making money, which means I’m making money, and that’s what we’re all here to do. This is a job. At the end of the day, this is our job, we go out there, and if that means going out there and whipping CM Punk’s a**, then I’m going to go out there and whip his a**,”
Strowman remarked.
As anticipation builds for Punk’s potential appearance on the go-home edition of RAW before WrestleMania XL, fans eagerly await any updates on his involvement in the event.
