There have been several reports doing the rounds that former WWE Champion CM Punk would return to WWE, this time in a host role for FOX in their coverage of SmackDown.

Triple H recently opened the door for a Punk return, claiming that Vince McMahon will do business with anyone, but Fightful recently revealed that although WWE were impressed with Punk, FOX have now moved on from picking him for the role.

Punk once again teased a switch to FOX with a photo of him holding a FOX Sports mic on his Instagram with a "LOL" caption on it.

He even tweeted about it later:

Made it onto @FOXSports! #lol https://t.co/LbP3lIJ6R2

Punk was a guest on FOX's show covering the LA Kings ice hockey team.

In a recent interview with Asbury Park Press, Punk revealed a little about what the future holds for him: "I don’t like to close doors that I eventually want to re-open, possibly, in the future, so we’ve just got to wait and see what happens."
