CM Punk could headline another major WWE event

CM Punk has spent most of his time on RAW feuding against Seth Rollins. After WrestleMania 41, The Second City Saint and The Visionary crossed paths on numerous occasions, but the 46-year-old veteran failed to take Rollins down as the latter created a new army.

Later, Punk won a gauntlet match and secured a title match against Gunther for the World Heavyweight Championship at WWE SummerSlam 2025. Months after main eventing WrestleMania 41, The Second City Saint might headline another major event soon.
