CM Punk’s status as a free agent has sparked interest and speculation about his potential future in professional wrestling. While some doors may have closed for him in certain promotions, there is still a glimmer of hope for the Second City Savior in Impact Wrestling.
It is well-known that top talent within WWE has expressed their reluctance to see CM Punk return to the company, a sentiment that became apparent when AEW released him. However, not all opportunities have been ruled out.
PW Insider has reported that Impact Wrestling is enthusiastic about the possibility of CM Punk joining their roster. This development has generated excitement, although it’s important to note that this could be a long-term endeavor for Impact Wrestling.
While Impact Wrestling appears keen on the idea of CM Punk potentially working with them, the practicality of such a long-term commitment remains uncertain. Securing Punk’s services would likely require a substantial financial investment, but it could also provide Punk with a degree of creative freedom not found in other promotions.
Among other promotions, we have heard that Impact Wrestling was super excited about the idea of Punk potentially working there but I don’t know that realistically, that would be a long-term option.
While some might perceive this move as a step down for Punk, there are undoubtedly many possibilities and opportunities for him within Impact Wrestling. With AEW and ROH seemingly off the table, Impact Wrestling could potentially become his new wrestling home, especially considering the positive interactions he had when visiting backstage and playing cards with fellow talent in the promotion. Only time will reveal what the future holds for CM Punk and where he decides to continue his wrestling career.
