The Spirit Squad Originally Scheduled to Return for Only One Week
…
Several of our readers have sent word that CM Punk was being advertised this week for the Hulu version of SmackDown Live. You can check out a screen shot that reader Erik Glenn sent in:
It’s obvious CM Punk isn’t appearing on the episode as he hasn’t returned to the company. Someone at Hulu screwed up and somehow this happened.
At last word Punk was under contract to UFC and has voiced in several interviews that he has no plans to return to WWE anytime in the near future.
While speaking with Sports Illustrated, Cody Rhodes was asked about Daniel Bryan’s challenge to a match once his contract with WWE expires. Cody made the following remarks:
“I don’t think it was a challenge, just fun. Daniel Bryan remains one of my friends. Final Countdown would be a welcomed tune, even as a competitor. I have always looked up to Dan. It would be major, major box office for all involved.”
Former WWE Superstar CM Punk was eliminated on this week’s episode of MTV’s The Challenge: Champs vs. Pros. Punk lost his elimination challenge, which was against Gus Kenworthy. He received $1,000 for P.A.W.S. Chicago, his charity.
For those wondering about Punk’s future, there is no official word yet as to what the UFC actually has plans for him and if they are going to release him from his contract or not. We will keep you updated.
