CM Punk Spotted Backstage on 2/2 Edition of WWE SmackDown

CM Punk may be out of action for an extended period from getting inside the squared circle. However, that did not mean that he would stop dropping by at work, leading to him being spotted on this week’s edition of Friday Night SmackDown.

One half of the WWE Women’s tag team champion, Kairi Sane took to her Instagram to post pictures backstage with SmackDown mentioned in her caption. While one of them was with her precious title, the other one was with The Best in the World.

“Friday…🌚🦉#SmackDown #KairiSane #CMPunk.”

The Voice of the Voiceless had been aiming to achieve his life-long goal of main-eventing WrestleMania since his shocking return to WWE in November 2023. However, he came up short in winning the 2024 Men’s Royal Rumble match, after being eliminated by the eventual winner, Cody Rhodes.

Not only that, CM Punk appeared on the following edition of RAW to announce that he suffered a torn triceps injury during the rumble match. That meant that he would miss this year’s Show of Shows, halting his dream for the time being.

With Punk on the sidelines as he begins to rehab for his untimely injury, it would be interesting to see when he returns to WWE television programming and once again begins his climb to the top of the mountain.

When do you think CM Punk will return to WWE? Sound off in the comments!
