If CM Punk ever decides to make his return to WWE, then the current SmackDown is tailor-made for him. The blue brand currently consists of the likes of Roman Reigns, Seth Rollins, and Cesaro, who are leading the brand from the front.

Whereas the return of a veteran like Edge has also helped in adding star power to the SmackDown roster. Throwing CM Punk into the mix would guarantee some incredible storylines, given the consistency SmackDown has followed lately in terms of creativity.
