CM Punk had a bit of a conversation with Chris Van Vliet in the past after making an exit from WWE. The star wrestler claimed that he would never ever return to Wrestling. A few years later, Punk made his UFC debut and was not successful in it. 7 years after it, the voice of the voiceless made his debut on AEW Rampage and returned to Wrestling.
Punk did not have a great end in WWE. The star wrestler had to make a move in 2014. After quitting WWE, he appeared in a musical award show. Punk claimed that he was initially asked to host the show. However, he was there on the red carpet just as a guest.

The cult of personality claimed things would not go as expected as always. Chris asked how the last 6 months of Punk's life were. It was in this period that a lot had conspired in his career. However, CM Punk did not want to remember anything. He claimed his memory in the period was erased.
CM Punk's AEW debut and shocking return to WWE
The second city saint was happy that he was engaged. When asked how he wanted to be addressed, as a WWE Superstar or as a former WWE Superstar, Punk preferred to be called a Superstar. AJ Lee had engaged with Punk by then.
Chris asked Punk if the fans could ever see him back in the Wrestling ring. Punk claimed there was no chance for it. He said "Never ever" and denied the chances of him returning to Wrestling. Punk then shook hands with Van Vliet and focused on his opportunity. A few years after that, Punk made his UFC debut.
On his debut, Punk lost to Mickey Gall in a match that lasted less than his entrance. He took part in another match before realizing that UFC was not meant for him. Ironically, in 2021, Punk returned to Wrestling by making his AEW debut. In 2023, Punk returned to WWE to a massive shock from the fans.
