UPDATE: There was also a CM Punk chant at one point during the WWE Crown Jewel main event of Roman Reigns vs LA Knight.
CM Punk chants have been captured breaking out within the Mohammed Abdo Theater ahead of Crown Jewel 2023.
In a video uploaded to Twitter from the live crowd (see below), chants for Punk can be audibly heard.
Punk has of course been heavily linked to a WWE return since his AEW departure in early September.
While reports have suggested WWE are not currently pursuing Punk’s signature, that has seemingly not stopped some fans voicing their opinion on the prospect in Riyadh and of course online.
Three weeks after Crown Jewel will be WWE’s next Premium Live Event Survivor Series, which takes place in Punk’s hometown of Chicago.
The word internally with WWE is said to be that Punk is not expected to be at Survivor Series, and nobody should buy tickets expecting to see him there.
In Punk’s latest appearance in his role as play-by-play commentator for the Cage Fighting Fury Championships there were more references to WWE and Punk’s potential next move.
