CM Punk fans rejoice! Despite a triceps injury at the Royal Rumble, CM Punk is on the road to recovery. His dedication to rehab is paying off, and his in-ring return is closer than we think.
While sidelined, Punk hasn’t been forgotten. His intense rivalry with Drew McIntyre has kept him relevant in WWE programming.
Big SummerSlam Match Possible
Wrestling Observer Radio’s Dave Meltzer recently shared insights on Punk’s return. Meltzer believes Punk, who had surgery in January, will be back by September. He even suggests a potential SummerSlam return!
“Punk’s return isn’t that far off,” Meltzer said. “Surgery was in January, so likely by July, August, or September. Maybe even SummerSlam! If he makes it, a Punk vs. Drew McIntyre title match would be huge. Even if not SummerSlam, it could happen a month later. Get ready, and Punk will be back soon!”
Adding fuel to the fire, Drew McIntyre even called out CM Punk fans on RAW this week. Regardless of the exact date, one thing’s for sure: fans are eager to see Punk and McIntyre finally settle their score in the ring.
