Jey Uso opens up about CM Punk’s WWE return
An unexpected turn of events after last year’s Men’s WarGames bout at Survivor Series saw CM Punk’s spectacular return to WWE. The magnitude of the event was conveyed by the raucousness at the Allstate Arena. While word got out about Punk’s attendance, influential event figure Jey saw things differently. Uso said nothing about Punk’s comeback while everyone else was talking about how conceited Seth Rollins is. But in the days leading up to the Royal Rumble, he revealed his true feelings for the world’s best.
It was verified by Jey Uso in an interview with TNT Sports that the return of CM Punk came as a surprise to the majority of people. Uso maintains that the primary event participants were not told in advance, contrary to what several stories have suggested. Unlike some of Punk’s known enemies, Uso thinks that his return will be good for the company’s future. He admitted that bringing back Punk, who is beloved by fans, is good for the WWE roster and the wrestling business overall.
