Ever since his WWE return, fans have been waiting for CM Punk to get a match on screen. Because of how anticipated his appearance in WWE was, the promotion is trying to build a compelling storyline for him instead of pushing him into a random feud with a star. And now, things seem to have solidified for the wrestler.

Seth Rollins has been feuding with The Best in the World way before he rejoined WWE. This is the reason why the Stamford-based company decided to exploit this heat to build a storyline involving the two wrestlers. Now, reports confirm that we will get to see them finally wrestle it out at WrestleMania 40.

As fans have been watching their screens, Seth Rollins has been feuding with CM Punk for a long time. WWE utilized this real-life feud to inculcate it into an on-screen storyline between the two. As a result, we were met with several fiery confrontations between the two wrestlers. But things seemed to have escalated now.

According to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Dave Meltzer has confirmed that fans will see CM Punk and Seth ‘Freakin’ Rollins wrestle each other at WM 40.

The reports from the industry insider haven’t confirmed whether it would be for the WHC, because the PLE is still pretty far away. However, confirmation that the two will face off each other at the biggest PLE of the year also comes with a slight possibility that the two superstars will main event at least one of the two nights in Philadelphia. “Seth Rollins vs. Punk is the confirmed WrestleMania plan. Reigns’ opponent is expected to be either The Rock or Rhodes, or it could be a three-way,” Meltzer said.

Several fans had already expressed their desire to see Punk feature in the main event at Mania in 2024 and it looks like their wish is coming true, step-by-step. Fans know that the main reason for their heat is that both stars have called out each other online on multiple occasions, never letting the fire fade away. However, CM Punk has a different view on the subject.

In terms of experience, Punk is the senior wrestler of the two. As a result, Rollins would naturally be inclined to admire the WWE legend’s work in the wrestling industry. This is where the ‘reason’ for the ‘hate’ comes from, according to Punk. Since the two wrestlers have feuded before, Punk believes that this is an integral part of the reigning champion’s wrestling run. On the other hand, the former AEW champion can talk about his career without any mention of Rollins.
