Punk FINALLY makes his return
It had been more than 5 years since CM Punk left WWE on a sour note. Punk came out at the end of last night's WWE Backstage, and it was later revealed that he would be working for the show as an analyst. After the show came to an end, the panelists gave their immediate reactions to the shocking return, as can be seen in the video below.
Young praised Punk's outfit and stated that she was stressed leading up to the moment he appeared. Punk responded by saying that he's just happy at the fact that Renee doesn't have to lie anymore.
Paige said that she's very excited about Punk's return, and added that he will bring his honesty to the show, which is what made fans hail him back in the day. Samoa Joe said that he's somebody who's probably the most familiar with Punk, and added that it's good to have him back. Booker T stated that Punk will be a great addition to WWE Backstage and he's looking forward to work with him.

Abhilash Mendhe is a pro wrestling journalist at Sportskeeda with nearly five years of experience. He completed his MBA from the Symbiosis Institute of Telecom Management in 2016 and worked with multiple banking institutions, including Tech Mahindra. While he started writing WWE articles for Sportskeeda in 2019 as a hobby, it eventually became a significant part of his professional journey.
Abhilash checks his articles thrice before sending them to the editing team, ensuring his work is highly accurate and reliable.
He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.
Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.
When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
