CM Punk's return to WWE

It was visible when he unexpectedly returned to WWE at the Survivor Series in 2023. The voice of the voiceless was the last wrestler one would have hoped to see in WWE. Given his past with Vince McMahon, the majority never expected to see him again in the company. His return hence turned out to be the most epic of all time.

A few months back, Tony Khan claimed to broadcast the details of what transpired during the brawl between Perry and Punk at All In. However, it did not gain as much traction as it should have. Punk has been having the time of his life currently in WWE taking on some of the best wrestlers in the world like Drew McIntyre and Seth Rollins.
