Since his departure from AEW, CM Punk’s possible return to WWE has been a hot topic in the wrestling world, sparking curiosity among fans worldwide. Amid speculation, WWE remains tight-lipped about any potential return of the “Second City Saint,” leaving fans wondering if his appearance at Survivor Series is imminent.

The latest report from Fightful Select suggests that WWE’s official stance on Punk’s return remains unchanged, indicating that his involvement at Survivor Series isn’t on the cards as far as insiders are aware.

Speculations and Unanswered Questions around CM Punk

Speculation arose around Shinsuke Nakamura’s hinted rivalry with an undisclosed opponent on “WWE Raw.” Despite fan conjecture linking it to Punk, insiders claim ignorance regarding this mysterious figure.

Additionally, hopes for Punk’s inclusion in Cody Rhodes’ WarGames team were dashed when “Raw” confirmed Randy Orton as the final member, deliberately diverting attention from any Punk-related expectations.

Despite the lack of confirmations, WWE’s modus operandi typically involves keeping such surprises under wraps. If plans for Punk’s appearance at Survivor Series do exist, WWE is unlikely to acknowledge or reveal them beforehand.

The element of surprise in a potential CM Punk comeback aligns with WWE’s penchant for shocking returns, promising significant impact and fan excitement.

In summary, while the current outlook might seem discouraging for CM Punk enthusiasts, the mystique surrounding WWE’s silence might just hint at a bigger reveal during Survivor Series.
