Many fans are still very excited about this chance and can’t wait to see any signs of CM Punk in the virtual ring. Now, CM Punk expressed his opinion on his absence in WWE 2k24.
What does CM Punk have to say about his absence on WWE 2K24?
In November of last year, CM Punk came back to WWE after nearly ten long years. WWE fans never thought they would see this happen. But the famous phrase “Never Say Never” lives up to its name, and Punk and WWE were able to make peace in the end. Nevertheless, The Best in the World missed an important deadline as WWE’s newest video game, WWE 2K24, was getting close to being finished. It will now be available in March 2024.

But they recently released the DLC teaser and there’s no sign of seeing Punk. I know this because fans are going crazy. They’re asking where I’m at, they’re asking how come I’m not in the video game.

Further Punk said that he would be doing so specifically because fans had demanded that he be put in the game. He also admitted that since he wasn’t really well-versed with the technology behind the game, he wasn’t sure how fast they could go about adding him to the game. “Let’s hold some feet to fires, ladies and gentlemen,” he concluded, stating that he would put pressure to the developers to add him to the game, tagging them in the process. 2012 was the last time CM Punk was in a WWE video game. His massive feud with John Cena was a part of the 2K Showcase mode.
