WWE Backstage analyst and special contributor CM Punk is all set to make a return to the FS1 show next week. As announced on tonight's edition of WWE Backstage, the former WWE Superstar will appear in next week's edition.
Punk hasn't been seen on WWE Backstage for a long while now. He was scheduled to appear on the March 17 edition of the show, with then-NXT Women's Champion Rhea Ripley joining him for a chat. Punk was excited to talk to Ripley and had previously named her among the people he wanted to see on WWE Backstage. The Coronavirus pandemic brought the plans to a halt though, and Punk hasn't been seen on WWE Backstage ever since.

Punk's appearances on the show have garnered good numbers in the past. It would be interesting to hear Punk talk about the latest developments in WWE, including the unique cinematic presentations of the Boneyard match and the Firefly Fun House match that took place at WrestleMania 36.
Fans can also expect Punk to talk about the new Universal and WWE Champions, Braun Strowman and Drew McIntyre respectively. Punk had recently expressed his thoughts on Strowman's criticism of independent wrestlers and wasn't too happy with the same if his tweet is any indication.

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.
