Details On CM Punk & TNA Wrestling Talks Revealed

WWE/TNA Wrestling

Details of the conversations between CM Punk and TNA Wrestling have now been revealed by former TNA president Scott D’Amore.

In late 2023, it was reported that CM Punk could potentially sign with TNA Wrestling, having parted ways with AEW earlier that year.

While Punk would make his WWE return at Survivor Series: WarGames in 2023 details of the conversations with TNA Wrestling have now emerged.

Scott D’Amore recently revealed the content of those conversations in his The D’Amore Drop column, noting that Punk never “big-timed” TNA Wrestling during their discussions.

According to D’Amore, he knew it was a “long shot” that he’d be able to land the services of Punk, explaining:

“It wasn’t a well-kept secret that I tried to sign Phil to TNA after things with AEW fell apart. I knew it was a long shot, I knew I was asking him to work in smaller arenas than he had in a long time.

“He listened; he was interested. He never big-timed TNA once, and he conducted himself the way we’d all wish a professional would. Ultimately, he went back to WWE, which, of course, is where he belongs.”

Discussing Punk’s return to WWE in November 2023 further, D’Amore would go on to reflect on the healing factor for the fans, stating:

“CM Punk’s 10-year journey back to WWE has been healing not just for Phil, but also, like kids caught up in a messy divorce, for all those fans who love both WWE and Punk, and hated seeing them take shots at the other.”

D’Amore explains that he’s enjoyed the storyline between CM Punk, Sami Zayn, Bron Breakker and Seth Rollins, but noted that it’s the Second City Saint who has really captured his attention.

CM Punk and Sami Zayn team up to face Bron Breakker and Seth Rollins at WWE Saturday Night’s Main Event on May 24.
