"It must mean something" - Fans spot another potential hint surrounding CM Punk's WWE return

The WWE Universe is claiming that they have spotted another hint that CM Punk will be making his return at Survivor Series.

CM Punk returned to professional wrestling on the 2nd edition of AEW Rampage in 2021. The promotion sold out the United Center in Chicago based on the rumor that he would return. Unfortunately, Punk's time in All Elite Wrestling was hampered by injuries and controversies. He infamously went on a rant targeting The Elite and Hangman Page following All Out 2022.

After several months away due to injury/ suspension, Punk returned on the debut episode of AEW Collision on June 17, 2023. However, he got into a backstage altercation with Jack Perry at AEW All In on August 27, resulting in his termination from the promotion. AEW President Tony Khan ironically had to announce that he fired Punk in the United Center ahead of the September 2 edition of Collision.

The account "Teffo" on X has shared another possible hint about Punk's rumored return at WWE Survivor Series. They shared an image from a new Survivor Series hoodie released by WWE and noted lightning bolts next to the company's logo on the sweatshirt.

Fans reacted to the potential hint in a variety of ways. Some fans were seemingly convinced that the lightning bolts were a reference to Punk, while others thought it was a reach to connect the image to a potential return at Survivor Series.
