In a surprising bit of news, CM Punk was backstage at today’s Raw taping in Chicago, Illinois.
Per PWInsider, former WWE Champion and current AEW star CM Punk was reportedly backstage at today’s Raw taping.
There’s no word on why Punk was there visiting, but several WWE sources indicate that he did briefly see Paul “Triple H’ Levesque. This would mark the first time the two men have seen each other in person since Punk walked out of the company in 2014.
Punk also met with several other WWE talents, but he was eventually asked to exit the arena.
One WWE source noted that he was asked to leave due to the former AEW World Champion being under contract with another company.
The report also notes that it was a Vince McMahon call that he leave the venue. When he was asked to exit, Punk immediately said his goodbyes and left the building.
As previously reported, Vince McMahon reportedly made major changes to tonight’s script for WWE Raw.
