Wrestlers who could be a part of CM Punk faction if there ever happens to be one

CM Punk is known to be a voice of the voiceless. In his prime days before leaving WWE in 2024, he was a part of a couple of factions before becoming a giant solo performer. The cult of personality led factions like The New Nexus and the Straight Edge Society. Some of the wrestlers from these factions went on to make a name for themselves. Hence, it would not be a bad idea to have a faction led by Punk.

In the current roster, there are arguably more factions than there ever was in the history of the company. However, having someone like Punk and being a part of the faction as a leader of it might not be a bad idea. It can help some superstars to elevate their careers. It can help some Superstars to gain the limelight. It would help the emerging stars to establish themselves. It could help the established stars to go a step forward. 

Here are five potential wrestlers who could be a part of the CM Punk faction if there were any:

5. Jade Cargill

Jade Cargill and CM Punk have known each other for a long time. Right from the days of AEW, they have known each other well. In fact, Cargill has openly claimed in the past that the former world champion helped her a lot in AEW when she needed it. So, there is a good relationship between the duo.

When Cargill debuted in WWE, she was a part of NXT with brief appearances here and there. Her major impact happened to be in the Royal Rumble 2024. Before the PLE took place, Punk met her and had a bit of conversation. Having her in the faction might not be a bad idea, considering their relationship.

4. Kofi Kingston 

Recently, the New Day has been having a feud with the Imperium. But with the potential implosion of the faction, the purpose of the faction has decreased. Moreover, the New Day's Xavier Woods has been injured. It makes sense for Kofi Kingston to be a part of a faction where he could have a role.

Some of the reports claim that the implosion of the New Day is on the cards. If it indeed happens to be true, Kofi might get a purpose to join the faction. Having someone in the faction whom you have known for a long time would do a lot of good to the faction. Kingston is one of the most experienced superstars. 

3. Dijak

Dijak is one of the biggest fans of Punk. The former NXT Superstar has been engaging himself on social media banters with the likes of Punk and Drew McIntyre. In the ring, he is one of the most athletic wrestlers despite being of a tall stature. In a faction with Punk, his character could get good buildup.

One of the important things for the NXT stars to be properly used in the main roster would be to indulge them along with the seniors. To have Dijak not just with the senior wrestlers but also with his favorite wrestler like the former world champion might just mean the world to him.

2. Jey Uso

Jey Uso has had a couple of interesting segments with Punk. Since his return, Punk has been regularly having conversations with the younger Uso. A night after WrestleMania XL, Jey won the match against Drew, Bronson Reed, Shinsuke Nakamura, and Ricochet to be the number one contender to face Damian Priest in Backlash 2024.

During the match, Punk turned clutch and stopped Drew from delivering Claymore to the Main Event Jey. The distraction helped the former Bloodline member to deliver spear and Uso splash to claim a win over McIntyre. Outside the ring, Punk and Jey share a good bond. Both of them being faces help the cause.

1. Cora Jade

Cora Jade has been out of action for a long time now. There have been reports regarding her potential return to the company. While nothing is sure, she is one of the biggest CM Punk fans on the roster. For the social media content, she became a part of a few of the segments that featured Punk himself.

Not to forget, Jade is also a fan of AJ Lee too. There is footage that is doing rounds on social media where Cora met Punk as a fan and later as a wrestler. Along with Cora, even Roxanne Perez is also a big fan of Punk. If there ever would be an opportunity for their collaboration, it could elevate the careers of female stars.
