Following his comeback at November’s Survivor Series Premium Live Event, CM Punk will end his brief absence from television matches at the 30-man Royal Rumble on January 27. As CM Punk gears up to make a splash in the Australian wrestling scene next month, this thrilling news is sure to delight fans, particularly those down under.
With the announcement that CM Punk, along with other elite performers like Logan Paul, will be appearing at one of WWE’s premier Premium Live Events in 2024, the anticipation is building. The historic event will be even more exciting for wrestling fans due to Punk’s powerful presence.
Will CM Punk appear at WWE Elimination Chamber?
The wrestling world is gearing up for one of its biggest events, the Elimination Chamber. Fans are eagerly anticipating the ‘X-factor’ that always makes this Premium Live Event exciting. Speculation among fans began with the possibility of the highly anticipated matchup between Roman Reigns and The Rock at the 2024 event. However, recent rumors indicate the opposite. WWE has avoided confirming Roman Reigns’ participation in this expected showdown.
However, new information has surfaced, with FOX Sports Australia reporting that CM Punk will be making an appearance at the Elimination Chamber on February 24. This will undoubtedly add interest to the forthcoming event. The “Best in the World” will compete in Australia for the very first time in more than a decade.
The addition of CM Punk’s involvement to the event’s advertising might increase ticket sales in the five weeks before the concert. Though plans are already in motion for January’s Royal Rumble, the inclusion of CM Punk at Elimination Chamber would be an interesting twist in the storyline of WWE’s Premium Live Events.
CM Punk’s potential opponent for the event
On WWE Raw, CM Punk faced off against Seth Rollins, the current World Heavyweight Champion, and Drew McIntyre, causing tension that has not yet developed into a full-fledged rivalry. By sharing his thoughts on Punk’s comeback on “Monday Night Rollins,” Rollins hinted at possible tensions between the two artists. On the other hand, Punk made fun of Rollins for winning the Royal Rumble and going for his crown.
After a tough loss to Seth Rollins on Day 1 of Raw, Drew McIntyre talked about it in a spot, and he mentioned CM Punk in a roundabout way. By announcing his aim to remove Punk from the Royal Rumble and headline WrestleMania, McIntyre made his ambitions clear.
Even though Punk expressed his desire to compete in the Royal Rumble, the fight with McIntyre could happen at the next Premium Live Event, Elimination Chamber 2024, because Drew specifically wanted to face Punk. This has fans excited to see what WWE decides to do with the story.
