WWE Superstar CM Punk’s recent triceps injury at the Royal Rumble has cast uncertainty over his WrestleMania 40 appearance. Regrettably, Punk’s recovery journey post-surgery has left him unable to compete at the upcoming event. Despite this setback, WWE Universe can anticipate his presence on an episode of RAW in March.
According to the latest announcement on the WWE website, CM Punk is slated to make an appearance on the April 1st edition of Monday Night RAW. This highly anticipated episode will emanate from the Barclays Center in New York. This episode of RAW will come before WrestleMania 40.
While Punk’s specific role on the RAW before WrestleMania remains undisclosed, his inclusion hints at a potential involvement at the grand event itself. Punk’s impending appearance promises to electrify the WWE Universe and add an intriguing dimension to the buildup toward WrestleMania 40
CM Punk could be involved in a huge role at WrestleMania 40
CM Punk expressed his frustration over missing multiple events due to injury. During his injury update announcement on RAW in January, Drew McIntyre confronted him. McIntyre took shots at Punk, expressing his satisfaction with Punk’s injury. CM Punk then said he would take a break and his first target upon his return would be McIntyre. Furthermore, McIntyre targeted Punk’s injured arm. Since then, McIntyre has continued to provoke Punk, maintaining the rivalry among fans.
Following the Elimination Chamber show, Drew McIntyre is scheduled to face Seth Rollins. However, despite his injury, Punk may still have a role at the event. Many fans speculate that Punk could serve as the referee for the WrestleMania 40 match. Alternatively, Punk might be announced as the host of WrestleMania 40 on the final episode of RAW before the event. It will be interesting to see what plans WWE has for Punk with him being advertised for RAW on April 1st.
