CM Punk’s return to WWE took place at Survivor Series last year, but his first match didn’t happen until the Royal Rumble pay-per-view. Unfortunately, Punk was injured during that match, and he’s been working towards his return ever since.
During his absence, CM Punk and Drew McIntyre have continued their fierce rivalry, though they haven’t engaged physically in a way that caused further injury to Punk. That may soon change, as Punk was recently spotted at the WWE Performance Center.
According to PW Insider, CM Punk was at the WWE Performance Center today, working on getting cleared to compete by the WWE medical team. He hasn’t wrestled since the Royal Rumble in January, where he suffered a torn triceps during his match with Drew McIntyre.
Despite his injury, Punk has remained a significant presence on WWE programming, often interfering in McIntyre’s attempts to become world champion. Rumors suggest that the two might finally clash at SummerSlam, although Punk hasn’t been cleared to compete yet. Wrestling Headlines will keep you updated on this developing story.
In the meantime, McIntyre was close to securing a match with Punk at SummerSlam, but Adam Pearce upheld McIntyre’s suspension after he refused to apologize for his actions. The anticipation continues to build as fans await Punk’s return to the ring.
