CM Punk made his big return to WWE at Survivor Series in November of 2023, and in the weeks that followed Punk immersed himself in the WWE system. The former WWE Champion was frequently spotted training with and giving advice to NXT stars such as current NXT Women’s Champion Roxanne Perez.
Recently Roxanne Perez spoke to TV Insider about what it’s like to receive advice from the one and only CM Punk, and she made it clear that she’s grateful for the effort Punk has been putting in to help NXT talent.
“He is such an inspiration. I grew up watching him, so to have him now and be under his learning tree and get all this advice from him. He is always stopping by the NXT [premium live events] to sit and watch the whole show and be there after our matches to give us all advice, which is something he does not have to do. He just does it. I’m so grateful for him. He is super awesome. I’ve learned so much from him already. I can’t wait to continue learning from him.”
CM Punk returned to the ring earlier this month at SummerSlam, but unfortunately for CM Punk he was defeated by Drew McIntyre. Punk will have a shot at redemption this weekend when he faces Drew in a strap match at WWE Bash In Berlin on Saturday, August 31st.
