CM Punk On If He Would Return To WWE To Face Triple H

It’s been years since fans have seen CM Punk compete in a professional wrestling ring, as he walked away from WWE after the Royal Rumble in 2014. Whether or not Punk will ever return remains to be seen, but there’s always talk in the wrestling world regarding potential opponents for the WWE Champion.

CM Punk recently did an interview with Uproxx, and while speaking about possibly wrestling another match he noted that he could potentially be interested in returning under the right circumstances.

“I think the right combination could maybe be figured out, but it’s also not for me to figure out. It’s not my world anymore. I’m certainly not Hulk Hogan, where I’m going to show up somewhere and like, ‘no, this is how it’s going to be.’ The wrestling world doesn’t necessarily need CM Punk and that’s absolutely fine. Everyone seems to be doing great. I don’t know, it’s like flavors of ice cream. I walk into an ice cream shop one time and I’m like, ‘Oh, that seems like a good flavor. Give me two scoops of that.’ It’s just gotta be the right time, right place, right situation.”

While talking about potential opponents Punk named Kenny Omega from AEW, and he also talked about a potential match with Triple H, and what the perception of that match could be.

“From a creative mind standpoint, stepping back and looking at the landscape of everything, there are people in WWE that I have wrestled before that maybe, in a certain situation could be interesting. There’s also the business side of things. What’s the biggest possible match for CM Punk? I think there’s Kenny Omega on the one side.

“And, you know, unfortunately, ironically enough, for me to go back to WWE, who’s the biggest match for me? It’s probably Triple H. That’s ironic because it’s nothing I’m interested in. It’s just what it is. Am I going to be a businessman and say that’s the match, that’s the big-money match? Well, it’s not my money, so it’s not for me to say.”

Who would you want to see CM Punk face if he returns? Sound off in the comments below.
