Ever since CM Punk’s triumphant return at Survivor Series: WarGames 2023, fans have eagerly anticipated his inclusion in the upcoming WWE 2K24 game.
With a roster boasting over 200 playable superstars, including the likes of Roman Reigns and Rhea Ripley, enthusiasts were eager to see if the Straight Edge Superstar would be part of the virtual action.
However, much to the disappointment of players and fans alike, CM Punk’s name was conspicuously absent from the roster revealed by 2K for the at-launch version of WWE 2K24.
Despite this setback, there’s a glimmer of hope as the possibility remains that the “Voice of the Voiceless” could be introduced as downloadable content (DLC) in the near future.
It’s worth noting that CM Punk was last featured in WWE 2K15, marking his departure from the franchise. His subsequent appearance in AEW Fight Forever might explain his exclusion from WWE 2K24.
Fans, who have long yearned for the return of this multi-time world champion, would undoubtedly welcome the chance to see Punk back in action in the upcoming WWE game.
The 14th annual Elimination Chamber premium live event took place in Perth, Australia, featuring headlining matches such as Women’s World Champion Rhea Ripley facing off against Nia Jax in their home country.
Although Cody Rhodes and World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins made appearances, CM Punk was notably absent due to a tricep injury.
While fans missed Punk’s presence at Elimination Chamber, he expressed his gratitude and apologized for his absence in an emotional Instagram post.
The former WWE Champion acknowledged the support of his fans and hoped they would enjoy the show, emphasizing his eagerness to perform for them.
As the wrestling world awaits CM Punk’s return to in-ring action, the question remains whether he will make an appearance on RAW following Elimination Chamber, adding another layer of anticipation for fans worldwide.
