It’s been over a year since CM Punk returned to WWE, and since then The Second City Saint has competed in several notable matches. Following his return at Survivor Series, CM Punk wrestled his first matches back with WWE at live events in December of 2023, and he faced off against the one and only Dominik Mysterio.
Recently Dominik was a guest on No Contest Wrestling, and he reflected on his experience working with Punk last year while indicating that he’s ready to go one on one with Punk again in the future.
“I had the great dishonor of welcoming Punk back after ten long years. It was everything I expected it to be, just an old man trying to do his thing. Thinks he’s still got it. He went out there in some plain black underwear. Didn’t even have his gear. It was definitely a sight to see. Overall, I’m glad the company was able to trust me to get in there with CM Punk and give him his first couple of punches back as a nice welcome-home gift. That energy we had in there was definitely something special.
I feel like he owes me something, too. I’m sure he remembers, he sang Happy Birthday to my sister. I was probably 12 years old and he sang Happy Birthday to her. He cornered my whole family when he had his s***** long black hair. What was his group? The society? [Straight Edge Society]. I didn’t remember it because it doesn’t matter. Now that I’m my own man and he doesn’t have to corner me into a corner, I would love to get my hands on him again. Now that I’m prepared and ready. I’ve seen kind of what he can do. It’s nothing special. He does the same things. I’m pretty sure I can read his playbook. Actually, here’s a good one, I know his moveset.”
