CM Punk [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/cm-punk] has had a difficult time with Drew McIntyre in 2024. He was wounded at the start of this year and has not returned to the ring yet. Although he has a broken hand, his injuries have not prevented him from wrecking Drew McIntyre’s life, as Punk has cost him the World Heavyweight Championship on several occasions. This has been a lot of fun to watch for the WWE Universe, and it appears like something similar will happen in the next WWE Premium Live Event Clash at The Castle, which will be held in Scotland. Drew McIntyre [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/drew-mcintyre/] and Damien Priest will compete for the World Heavyweight Championship in this WWE Premium live event. This match can have several different endings, although sources suggest it may conclude quite similarly to all of McIntyre’s previous World championship fights. CM PUNK IN THE WORLD TITLE MATCH? SRS and Denise discussed how the match between McIntyre and Priest might conclude in a video on Fightful’s YouTube channel. [https://www.youtube.com/live/ZHAg-ZqS-1w] Both of them leaned towards Punk interfering in the World title match since it would allow both superstars to raise their rivalry even more. According to the duo, while the rumor can’t be confirmed yet, it’s the most likely outcome. CM Punk [https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/drew-mcintyre-and-cm-punk-.png] SRS stated, “They will have CM Punk interfere in that world title match, and it’s at -450 favorite yes and I am leaning that way, I don’t know if I am that confident but I am leaning that way.” Denise replied, “I have been leaning that way for quite some time. I feel like that is definitely the direction they are going in. Even today what we talked about that match given what went down and now that the Judgement Day is banned from ringside, that didn’t mean CM Punk is banned from ringside.” People have been keenly waiting for the match between Drew McIntyre and CM Punk, as it would be a dream match for many. They have been going back and forth since January 2024 following the Royal Rumble. But when can this match possibly take place? So far, the speculations suggest this match will not be held in a modest WWE PLE. It will be one of WWE’s four major events, with the Summerslam coming. CM Punk has almost fully healed from his injuries now, and his return to the ring is not far off. He has cost McIntyre the World Championship so many times [https://www.essentiallysports.com/wwe-news-made-my-life-hell-cm-punk-called-out-by-drew-mcintyre-for-2011-locker-room-heat-after-raw-draft/] that the fans are keen for another showdown between the two. It is speculated that this match will take place at the Summerslam, but only time will tell. 

Former WWE Champion CM Punk may have a huge role in the upcoming WWE Premium Live Event Clash at the Castle Scotland.

<h2 style="text-align: center">CM Punk: Net Worth, Salary, &amp; Endorsements</h2>
Phillip Jack Brooks, better known as CM Punk, is an American professional wrestler currently signed with WWE and outcasted from All Elite Wrestling (AEW). He is a retired mixed martial artist who competed in the UFC. Punk also works as a commentator for Cage Of Fury fighting championships, a comic book writer, and an actor.
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center"><b>What is the net worth of CM Punk?</b></h2>
As per CelebrityNetWorth, the net worth of CM Punk as of January 2024 is estimated to be $12 million. Punk is paid handsomely as a part of the WWE. Before that, he was the highest-earning ECW star in 2006-2008, earning around $200,000 to $300,000 annually. In WWE, he was earning $1 million annually in 2011.

The figure went up to 1.3 million in 2012-13. It touched $1.7 million in 2013-14. He was the cover star of the WWE 2K13 video game, which earned him another $200,000. CM Punk had earned enough brand value to earn millions wherever he went after he left WWE. That's why UFC was ready to pay him well, even as a novice. His first fight got him $500,000.

[caption id="attachment_1815690" align="aligncenter" width="1486"]<img class="wp-image-1815690 size-full" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/imago0006336558h.jpg" alt="CM Punk net worth" width="1486" height="1920" /> Credits: Imago[/caption]

He got more out of the PPV revenue, which pushed his earnings past the one million mark. He was paid $503,500 for his second appearance. An additional $500,000 was given as an appearance fee and $3500 as a fight incentive. Punk's salary following his comeback to WWE after over nine years is kept under wraps as of now.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>All we need to know about the family of CM Punk?</b></h2>
Not much is known about CM Punk's family as, despite ruling headlines owing to his successful professional career, he has managed to keep his personal life away from the limelight. The only fact known about his parents is that his father was an architectural engineer while his mother was a homemaker. The former mixed martial artist also has five siblings.

His elder brother goes by the name Mike Brooks, while he also has a younger sister named Chaleen Lee Creeks. Meanwhile, no information is available about his other three siblings. Speaking of his love life, Punk married the American author AJ Lee, also known as April Jeanette Mendez, in June 2014.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>CM Punk’s record in professional wrestling</b></h2>
Of the many hats he has donned, Punk is most famous for his professional wrestling stint that saw him revolutionize the WWE. Starting with Ring of Honor, Punk made his WWE debut in 2005. After being a mid-card wrestler for years, his rivalry with <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/john-cena">John Cena</a> finally pushed him to the stratosphere.

He was the perfect anti-hero to the larger-than-life superhero persona of Cena. However, fans were firmly behind Punk and booed the face of the company to support the Straight Edge Superstar. His breakout moment was the famous pipe-bomb promo where he created an illusion of going off script and bashing Vince McMahon and his handling of the promotion. It did not go unnoticed as Punk began a record-breaking reign with the WWE title, which saw him remain champion for 434 days.

[caption id="attachment_1815695" align="aligncenter" width="1920"]<img class="wp-image-1815695 size-full" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/imago0013342344h.jpg" alt="CM Punk" width="1920" height="1344" /> Credits: Imago[/caption]

That was not the only record he held in the company. Punk is a 3-time World Heavyweight Champion (WWE), 2-time WWE Champion, WWE Intercontinental Champion, World Tag Team Champion, and the winner of the 2008 and 2009 Money In The Bank ladder matches. CM Punk is the 7th longest-reigning WWE Champion of all time.

However, after all this, he had a tragic fallout with WWE over the alleged mishandling of his health and inappropriate booking. This saw Punk leaving professional wrestling for good and joining the UFC as a mixed martial artist.

Despite bringing a lot of attention, his MMA career in the Welterweight division was a flop, with him losing both his fights. After being away from WWE for over nine years, Punk made an unexpected comeback in November 2023.
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center"><b>All about CM Punk’s charity</b></h2>
CM Punk has been a quite charitable superstar throughout his career. He has fulfilled many wishes for the Make-A-Wish Foundation, as well as a similar charity called the Kids Wish Network.

Punk also joined Kerry Wood's Strike Zone Bowling Tournament, a tournament that sets out to improve the health of Chicago children through healthy eating and enhanced education. He has also painted customized chairs for the Chicago Cubs to be auctioned off, and in 2015, he auctioned off his first car, a 2001 Chevrolet Monte Carlo to charity.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>CM Punk’s theme song</b></h2>
CM Punk has 'Cult of Personality' as his theme song. The song came out in 1988 and formed a part of the debut album 'Vivid' by the American rock band Living Colour.

CM Punk: Net Worth, Salary, & Endorsements

<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Drew McIntyre: 2024 Net Worth, Stats, Salary, Wife and More</strong></h2>
<h2><b>Who is Drew McIntyre?</b></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400">Andrew McLean Galloway IV, a Scottish professional wrestler, is presently signed with WWE. He competes on the Raw brand under the ring name Drew McIntyre. He began his career in 2001 in the United Kingdom and has won the WWE and World Heavyweight Championships. McIntyre is also known for his stint with Impact Wrestling, previously known as Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA). McIntyre has also worked with several independent wrestling promotions, including Insane Championship Wrestling, Evolve, Pro Wrestling Guerrilla, and What Culture Pro Wrestling (WCPW).</span>
<h2><b>Drew McIntyre’s early life </b></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400">McIntyre was born in Ayr on June 6, 1985. He grew up in nearby Prestwick, where he attended Prestwick Academy. He considered becoming a professional soccer player when he was younger, playing for the youth team Prestwick Boys, mostly in defensive positions.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">As a child, he was a fan of professional wrestling and began training at the age of 15, with his parents agreeing to support him as long as he focused equally on his education. He consented and eventually earned a master’s degree in criminology from Glasgow Caledonian University.</span>
<h2><b>Drew McIntyre’s Wife and Children</b></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400">McIntyre was engaged to American professional wrestler Taryn Terrell in July 2009 while both were performing for WWE, and the two wed in Las Vegas in May 2010. They got divorced in May 2011. </span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">He then met doctor Kaitlyn Frohnapfel at a bar in 2013, and the two married on December 10, 2016. The pair now resides in Nashville, Tennessee, after previously living in Tampa, Florida.</span>
<h2><b>Drew McIntyre Net Worth 2024 (Update)</b></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400">Various sources estimate McIntyre’s net worth at $2 million as of 2024. Although his contract with the WWE has not been made public, McIntyre has an approximate salary of $1 million. His appearance in WWE games published by 2K, his book A Chosen Destiny: My Story and his upcoming performance in The Killer’s Game likely gave a handsome bump to his salary. </span>

<img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1659919" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/drew-mcintyree-473x315.jpg" alt="" width="473" height="315" />
<h2><b>Drew McIntyre Career Timeline</b></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400">McIntyre began his wrestling career in 2001 in the United Kingdom. He got a developmental deal with WWE in 2007 and was assigned to Ohio Valley Wrestling and Florida Championship Wrestling. In 2009, he worked on SmackDown as The Chosen One, winning both the WWE Intercontinental Championship and the WWE Tag Team Championship. During the following years,</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">McIntyre went on to win the WWE Intercontinental Championship over John Morrison at the Tables, Ladders, and Chairs event but lost it to Kofi Kingston at the 2010 Over the Limit. He also won the WWE Tag Team Championship alongside Cody Rhodes at the 2010 Night of Champions. Later in the year, the two would lose the Bragging Rights competition. McIntyre would continue to participate in matches for various titles but always found himself falling short of the finish line. </span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">2012 saw McIntyre form the trio 3MB, with Jinder Mahal and Heath Slater. The trio would attempt to wreak havoc but always fell short. Slater and McIntyre would then lose the WWE Tag Team Championship match as they challenged Team Hell No (Daniel Bryan and Kane). He assumed a role as a low-card wrestler for the faction. He was released from his contract in 2014.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">In 2014, McIntyre was released from the WWE. </span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">He would go on to join the Insane Championship Wrestling in June 2014. At Fear &amp; Loathing VII, later in the year, he would become the ICW Heavyweight Champion. In his first foreign ICW title defense, McIntyre competed in a double championship triple threat match against Dansk Pro Wrestling Champion Michael Fynne and Chaos, where he both retained the ICW title and won the DPW Heavyweight Championship.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">He joined TNA in 2015 and won the TNA World Heavyweight Championship as well as the Impact Grand Championship. He wrestled under the ring name Drew Galloway and kept at it until he received the golden call from WWE again.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">After returning to WWE two years later, McIntyre won the NXT Championship and was promoted to the main roster. He won the 2020 Royal Rumble, which earned him a WWE Championship battle against Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania 36. He went on to defeat Brock Lesnar, winning the WWE Championship for the first time in his career. He defended the title in several matches until losing it to Randy Orton in Hell in a Cell. He would become a two-time WWE Champion on the November 16 edition of Raw, defeating Orton to restore his championship status.</span>

<img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-673530" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/Drew-McIntyre-sword-entry-560x315.jpg" alt="" width="560" height="315" />

<span style="font-weight: 400">McIntyre defended his championship against superstars, including A.J. Styles and The Miz, who cashed in on his Money in the Bank contract at TLC PPV. Furthermore, at the Royal Rumble PPV, the Scottish Warrior defeated Keith Lee and defended his title against WWE Hall of Famer Goldberg.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">However, McIntyre lost his championship when Miz cashed in his Money In the Bank contract (which he was able to reclaim due to a contractual loophole) at the 2021 Elimination Chamber. Prior to Miz cashing in his Money in the Bank, Bobby Lashley assaulted McIntyre, after which The Miz used the Skull-Crushing Finale to pin McIntyre and win the WWE Championship, therefore ending McIntyre’s second reign as Champion.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">The Scottish wrestler would contest for the Undisputed WWE Universal Champion and the Intercontinental Champion, but they failed to achieve both belts. He would also challenge Seth Rollins for the World Heavyweight Champion and failed in his initial attempt. After earning a chance to compete against Rollins in WrestleMania 40, he would win by pinfall. After his victory, a brawl would break out between him and CM Punk as McIntyre mocked the former UFC fighter. Punk would go on to thrash McIntyre, which was followed by Damian Priest cashing in his Money in the Bank, to then pin the Champion and win in 9 seconds.</span>
<h2><b>Drew McIntyre Contracts</b></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400">The Scotsman has signed a contract with the WWE, which pays $1 million each year. As per various sources, his base salary is a handsome $550,000. </span>
