10 Things That MUST Happen During CM Punk’s WWE Return

Of course, that's not to say that Punk is a changed man who suddenly mellowed when he put pen-to-paper on that second WWE contract. The guy's AEW run kicked off with similar wholesome vibes and positivity, but things went to shit once backstage in-fighting became more interesting to fans than anything CM was doing on-screen.

Triple H will know he can't let that happen under his watch.

Punk will surely have been warned he'll end up headfirst in a wheelie bin courtesy of Roman Reigns if he starts getting too big for his boots. WWE is a different environment; it's a stricter one, and the kind of nonsense Punk was pulling elsewhere just won't fly anymore.

He'll have to be kept on a short leash, and perhaps regularly reminded of his responsibilities to the machine-like grind of WWE business. Do that, and CM Punk will make oodles of cash to pad both his and the company's bank accounts further.
