It actually happened; CM Punk is back in WWE!
Following an epic WarGames main event at Survivor Series, the Chicago native came out to a monstrous response from his hometown crowd. This came around 10 minutes after another major WWE Superstar made his long-awaited return.
Randy Orton had quite the moment as he returned as the fifth member of Cody Rhodes’ WarGames team. He played a crucial part in giving them the win over Team Judgment Day. So, it’s natural if The Viper felt slighted that his big moment was almost instantly overshadowed.
Those feelings could boil over on the upcoming episode of WWE RAW, with Orton turning heel by attacking CM Punk. It is the perfect way to ensure he doesn’t get lost in the shuffle if the former AEW star does remain on Monday nights.
Furthermore, Randy Orton is better as a heel anyway. This would be a strong first feud for Punk, potentially culminating at the Royal Rumble or Elimination Chamber. The two have solid in-ring chemistry. Their match at WrestleMania 27 is one of the most underrated bouts in the event’s history.
