The rumors regarding CM Punk’s return to WWE are getting louder as Survivor Series gets closer. The reason lies in the belief that ‘The Best in the World’ could show up at Survivor Series ’23. After an official tease from WWE, Gargano also hinted at the same.
Gargano spoke about how Logan Paul winning and promoting his United States Championship everywhere was proving good for the promotion. Then, without mentioning the former AEW star’s name, Gargano told the world what he would think about Punk rejoining WWE.
Gargano said, “At the end of the day, whatever is going to get more eyes on WWE television, that’s the best move possible. Whoever that may be, whoever they bring in, whatever eyes they bring in. I’m all for it.”
According to the top star, if WWE decides to finally bring CM Punk back, it would be a win for the promotion and all its talents.
It looks like the 36-year-old main roster star might not be too far away from the rumor as things are finally coming together. A recent tweet from a fan revealed how Punk might actually be confirmed for Survivor Series this year.
