So, I’ve been seeing a lot of buzz online lately about CM Punk, especially with people wondering if he’s injured or not. I’m a huge wrestling fan, so naturally, I got curious and decided to dig into it myself. Here’s what I found out.
First, I started by checking out some recent wrestling news and podcasts. The Nightcap podcast, to be exact. It’s always a good place to get the latest scoop. And, wouldn’t you know it, they had CM Punk on, and he was talking about an injury that’s kept him sidelined for a good chunk of 2024.
Then I remembered that he made this big comeback to WWE at War Games in November 2023. Everyone was hyped, and it seemed like he was gearing up for a major run towards WrestleMania 40. I was really looking forward to seeing him back in action, especially at such a huge event.
He did have a couple of non-televised matches at the end of 2023, but his big TV return was at the Royal Rumble. I was watching it live, and it was awesome to see him in the ring again.
But then, disaster struck. He took this move from Drew McIntyre, the Future Shock DDT, and you could see his right arm hit the mat really hard. I remember wincing when it happened. Turns out, that was the moment he tore his right triceps. Man, what a bummer.
Here’s what I gathered:
- CM Punk got injured during the Royal Rumble match.
- He tore his right triceps when he took Drew McIntyre’s Future Shock DDT.
- This injury has kept him out of action for most of 2024.
I also did some extra reading about him, just for fun, and found out his wife is also a former wrestler, AJ Lee, and they got married on June 13th. Plus, he’s really into comic books and video games, which is pretty cool.
In Conclusion
So, there you have it. CM Punk is indeed injured. It’s a real shame because he’s a fantastic wrestler, and I was excited to see him back in WWE. Hopefully, he’ll make a full recovery soon and get back to doing what he does best.
