An interview with CM Punk that was released last week which resulted in him seemingly upsetting people within All Elite Wrestling. It also renewed speculation that he could return to WWE and now a new report from WrestlingNews.co sheds some light on what could be next for the one-time Best in the World.
In the latest Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Dave Meltzer pointed out that there's a chance Punk could go back to WWE because the likes of Bret Hart, Goldberg, and The Ultimate Warrior have all managed to repair their relationship with Vince McMahon over the years. However, the site notes that there have been no talks between the two sides.
However, it's said that Vince is definitely open to the idea of Punk coming back to WWE even if it's just to stop him from working for All Elite Wrestling. The site also points out that Punk has cut most of his ties with friends from the wrestling business, including Paul Heyman.
With that in mind, it might be tricky for him to open negotiations with the company.
