CM Punk Goes the Extra Mile for Fans Following 9/17 WWE NXT

CM Punk’s return to WWE at last year’s Survivor Series has been celebrated as one of the company’s best moves in recent history, and it’s easy to see why. Not only is The Second City Saint thriving in his comeback, but he’s also showing his appreciation for fans in a big way. During the September 17 episode of WWE NXT, Punk made a surprise appearance and got involved in the NXT Women’s Title match, sparking excitement among the crowd.

But the surprises didn’t stop there. After the cameras went off, Punk went above and beyond for fans, sticking around for two full loops at the WWE Performance Center, taking countless photos with those in attendance. One lucky fan even shared the experience on Reddit, praising Punk for going the extra mile.

On top of his in-ring involvement, it was also confirmed that CM Punk will be the special guest referee for the NXT Championship match between Ethan Page and Trick Williams. This match will take place during the highly anticipated debut of NXT on the CW Network in Chicago, Punk’s hometown, making it an extra special moment for fans.

Punk’s WWE run since his return has been nothing short of remarkable, and with more high-profile appearances and fan interactions, it’s clear he’s fully embracing this chapter of his career.
