After ending his association with WWE in 2014 on not-so-good terms, CM Punk has again started causing a stir backstage on the roster. His recent shocking appearance on RAW backstage has already made headlines. It must have shocked many but jolted a WWE legend entirely.
After the news of Punk’s visit came to the surface, much speculation rose about the reason behind it. However, the real reason was revealed soon. As you must already know that in his small hang-out in WWE after nine years, he was reportedly talking to Triple H. But they soon requested him to leave the premises. And when this news came to Eric Bischoff’s ear sight, he couldn’t resist but react to it, being Punk’s critic, that he is.

Punk was even asked to leave by WWE’s Head of Security Jim Kelly at the request of Vince McMahon.
