Reflecting on his injury, he drew inspiration from his friend Chad Gilbert‘s cancer battle. Following his injury, he said, “I’m very careful about saying, like, where you work is your family. Because I think your family is your family and where you work is your job. But it’s been a great support system.” Punk’s not just an athlete; he’s part of a supportive WWE family, and he’s itching to return stronger than ever.  

Punk also stated, “And just certain looks from certain people I get, and then I start crying again, you know? And Cody’s one of them. He’s a great dude. This locker room is everything the business is supposed to be. It’s everything the business was sold to me as being.” Missing out on the “amazing situation” is tough, but Punk remains focused on the future with the help of his locker room family.
