CM Punk chant fills WWE Crown Jewel

The WWE Crown Jewel event, held in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, was one of the grandest wrestling shows of the year, boasting a star-studded lineup of matches. Several title matches took place at the event, and most of them were highly entertaining. Despite the presence of numerous big superstars, the crowd in the arena was repeatedly heard chanting the name of former WWE superstar CM Punk.

For the past few months, Punk’s return to WWE has been speculated, as he got terminated from AEW due to a backstage brawl at the AEW All In event. Many recent reports have indicated that the Second City Saint will be back on the Stamford-based promotion by Survivor Series, which will be held a few weeks later. The reports are considered concrete since that event will be taking place in Chicago, which is Punk’s hometown.

While rumors suggest his appearance later this month, the excitement surrounding CM Punk began to surface at the start of the month. In the main event of the Crown Jewel 2023 Premium Live Event in Saudi Arabia, the crowd chanted for CM Punk during multiple matches, causing irritation among the WWE superstars performing in the ring.

Former WWE and AEW superstar CM Punk heightened the speculation of his return to WWE by dropping a significant hint at a recent MMA live event. While it was a subtle tease, it proved to be more than sufficient to convince fans of his imminent WWE return.

The Second City Saint’s possible comeback to the WWE Universe is a topic that most of the pro wrestling fans have been discussing on the internet for a while now. He was released from AEW by the promotion’s CEO, Tony Khan. Since then, fans have been speculating about his return, from Fastlane to the Survivor Series.

Recent reports have hinted at Punk’s potential return during the upcoming WWE Survivor Series event, scheduled to take place in his hometown of Chicago. Some fans are eagerly anticipating his appearance on the show, although no official confirmation has been provided.

At a recent CFFC 127 show, CM Punk was seen standing next to an MMA commentator who had the WWE logo sticker in his suit pocket. It is most probably a small tease by the former WWE superstar about his return to the Stamford-based promotion.
