CM Punk will be fighting inside the octagon against Mike Jackson on June 9 from the United Center in Chicago at UFC 225.
However, the former WWE champion must deal with another issue first as he's set to appear in court for his trial with WWE physician Chris Amann, according to Dave Meltzer on Wrestling Observer Radio.
"He's got that [WWE lawsuit], remember he's going to trial on the 21st [of May]," Meltzer said. "Unless there's a delay, yeah May 21st. He should not be fighting, should he? He may ask for a delay. In the middle of a lawsuit, three weeks from a fight, and that's a lawsuit where he's going to be cross-examined and gonna testify in. No, that's a bad deal. Yeah, he's going to have to get that thing delayed past June 9."
Punk appeared on Colt Cabana's podcast back in November 2014 and alleged that he was mistreated for a back injury and a concussion by WWE's Dr. Chris Amann. Amann filed a lawsuit against the two for the comments they made and it looks like the two sides weren't able to settle out of court.
