Punk shocks the Pro Wrestling world
This week's WWE Backstage left the WWE Universe in a state of absolute shock, as former WWE Superstar CM Punk made his return at the end of the show. It was later revealed that Punk would be working on the show as an 'analyst'.
WWE on FOX has now released a clip that shows what was going on behind the scenes before Punk appeared on the show.
I wouldn't be able to tell you with a straight face that I wasn't nervous at all. It's a space I haven't been in 5-6 years, compounded by the fans who have always clamored for me to come back to this space, so even if it's me actually wrestling, feels like a big deal. Nerves are good. If you're not nervous that means you don't care enough.

Abhilash Mendhe is a pro wrestling journalist at Sportskeeda with nearly five years of experience. He completed his MBA from the Symbiosis Institute of Telecom Management in 2016 and worked with multiple banking institutions, including Tech Mahindra. While he started writing WWE articles for Sportskeeda in 2019 as a hobby, it eventually became a significant part of his professional journey.
Abhilash checks his articles thrice before sending them to the editing team, ensuring his work is highly accurate and reliable.
He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.
Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.
When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
