Upcoming WWE Events and CM Punk's Speculated Return

The next few months are crucial for WWE, with several major live events on the horizon. WWE has announced that the eagerly awaited Night Of Champions will occur in Saudi Arabia on June 28. The last event held at this venue was Crown Jewel in November, which received positive reviews. Currently, WWE is promoting Night Of Champions, where many of its top stars are expected to appear. Fans are buzzing about the potential return of CM Punk at WrestleMania, despite his current absence from WWE, which could lead to disappointment among his supporters.

CM Punk's Comments on Saudi Arabia

CM Punk made a comeback to WWE in November 2023, but he was not part of the two events hosted in Saudi Arabia last year. During an Instagram live session, he was asked about his feelings towards visiting Saudi Arabia, to which he replied, "I have never been to Saudi, but I don't hate going there."


Seth Rollins Takes Center Stage

Currently, CM Punk is not included in the lineup for Night Of Champions. His promotional role has been reassigned to Seth Rollins, who is set to challenge Roman Reigns. This shift has sparked discussions within the wrestling community regarding Punk's status in relation to the event. Meanwhile, the uncertainty surrounding Joe Biden's potential visit to Saudi Arabia adds another layer of intrigue.

Seth Rollins' Current Rivalries

At WrestleMania 41, a significant three-way match featured Roman Reigns, CM Punk, and Seth Rollins, where Paul Heyman played a pivotal role in exposing both Punk and Reigns, ultimately leading to Rollins' victory. Rollins is currently teaming up with Heyman and Bron Breakker, while Sami Zayn is aligning with Punk. The upcoming Saturday Night’s Main Event on May 24 will see Zayn and Punk face off against Breakker and Rollins, promising an exciting showdown.
