‘Wrestling superstar ‘Stone Cold’ Steve Austin had his share of boisterous crowd reactions during his career, yet these paled in comparison to the ecstatic response received by CM Punk upon his 2023 return to WWE.
Punk made his return to the world of WWE at the climax of Survivor Series: WarGames 2023, nearly ten years removed from his dramatic and controversial departure in 2014.
In a show of camaraderie, Punk revealed a text exchange with Austin, reflecting on the star-studded re-entry of the Chicago-native wrestler, which certainly left an impression on the iconic Texas Rattlesnake.
Punk’s electrifying return to WWE has ignited a high-stakes rivalry with Drew McIntyre, as well as a potential feud with Seth Rollins that was put on hold due to Punk’s unforeseen injury.
Fans are eagerly awaiting the comeback of CM Punk in the upcoming Survivor Series: WarGames pay-per-view event. Here, he will team up with the original members of The Bloodline, ready to face off against their own faction in the heart-pounding WarGames.
