After Royal Rumble 2024, the Chicago-based wrestler publicly announced that he would be out of the business for several months due to an injury to one of his triceps. This upset his fanbase. However, a couple of weeks ago, reports regarding Punk’s possible appearance at WrestleMania started coming in. And now, he has seemingly confirmed his presence at the upcoming PLE in Philadelphia.

In the latest edition of Monday Night Raw, the former AEW superstar cut a promo and announced that he will make it to the ‘biggest WrestleMania in history’. “WrestleMania is in Philadelphia. What are the first four letters in Philadelphia? Phil…whether or not I’m invited. It never matters to CM Punk. He’ll be there,” said the WWE legend.

Although he may not be cleared to wrestle, we might see him host, announce, or become a guest referee during the PLE.
