#1 Rivalry with Triple H

Despite of all the ideas on this list, there simply isn't a more perfect one than to have Punk rekindle his rivalry against Triple H. We have seen the two men face each other before during The Summer of Punk back in 2011, as the two men clashed at Night of Champions only for Hunter to gain the win.

The McMahon Family are back on television, as they promised a change in the WWE, what would be a better way for Punk to return by immediately targetting them? Punk could highlight the hypocrisy in The McMahon Family's quest for something new in the WWE, as Punk was the man who had rallied for change first back when he dropped the Pipebomb, but nothing ever came out of it.

In order for this rivalry to occur, Hunter would clearly have to turn heel, but it is something that could be easily done as Triple H always adapts his character whenever it's needed, as we've seen before during the Stephanie/Hunter rivalry with Ronda Rousey and Kurt Angle where he performed as a heel to get Rousey over.

There is definitely money to be made with Punk feuding with Hunter again, and the war of words that these two would have on the mic would be fantastic. This rivalry would be the perfect opportunity for Punk to justify his reasonings to the WWE Universe on why he had left the WWE.

On the other hand, Hunter could constantly berate Punk for how he took the easy way out by leaving the WWE, and then he moved onto MMA where he was the biggest flop in UFC's history. This would be a great way to create a sympathetic feud for Punk where the fans could easily get behind him, and one last match between Punk and Hunter with a possible stipulation such as Hell in a Cell or Last Man Standing would definitely be best for business.
