CM Punk left WWE on bitter terms, and people thought that he would never return to the company.
After his run at AEW however, many have started believing that the Straight Edge Star could be persuaded to make his comeback to the Vince McMahon-owned promotion. As far as Road Dogg is concerned, WWE will be ready to give him a second opportunity.
The WWE Senior Vice President of Live Events commented on the possibility of Punk’s return on the latest episode of his podcast. He explained that he has learned to never say never in such cases:
‘Never say never with these guys. They will give you a second chance. [WWE] will give you an opportunity if it’s business savvy, and bringing him back might be. The reason it might be is because he’s a needle mover.’
Road Dogg on CM Punk return
WWE has a long history of talents who have left the company in an unfriendly manner only for them to return later on. This list includes names such as Steve Austin and Bret Hart among others.
CM Punk walked out of WWE back in 2014 after being unhappy with his bookings for sometimes. He made his AEW debut in August 2020 but has not been seen in the promotion since the All Out brawl.
