Recent reports indicate that WWE superstar CM Punk may be nearing the end of his active wrestling career, following a rumor about his potential new backstage role within the company. Despite doubts about his ability to have a successful second run in WWE, Punk has faced challenges in both his first stint with the company and his brief return with AEW.
However, over the past three years, his reputation has grown, making him a beloved member of the roster. This newfound admiration has fostered a bond between Punk and the WWE's head of creative, Triple H.
Sources suggest that Punk is currently undergoing training to replace Shawn Michaels in NXT, as the Hall of Famer is expected to take over the role of retiring WWE executive Bruce Pritchard. Punk has been attending most of the NXT broadcasts in recent weeks, working closely with Michaels. Given his strong relationship with WWE decision-makers and his dedication to the brand, it seems likely that CM Punk's career may be reaching its conclusion sooner than previously thought.
