After being terminated from AEW this past September, CM Punk made his return to WWE at Saturday night’s Survivor Series, which took place at the Allstate Arena in Rosemont, IL just outside of Punk’s hometown of Chicago.
Punk came out as the show began to go off the air. He interacted with the fans at ringside and celebrated with the crowd who went absolutely nuts.
Below is an excerpt from Mike Tedesco’s WWE Survivor Series recap of CM Punk’s return to WWE.
