CM Punk claims his family member is not allowed to appear on WWE TV anytime soon

CM Punk recently ruled out the possibility of one of his family members appearing on WWE TV anytime soon. The family member in question is his dog, Larry.

The Straight Edge Superstar's furry friend has been in the conversation since the Chicago native's turbulent run in All Elite Wrestling. Larry was allegedly involved in and got hurt during the infamous Brawl Out incident between CM Punk and The Elite.

Whether it's AEW or WWE, Larry has been a big part of CM Punk's overall presentation. He was on the poster wall of the United Center when The Second City Saint returned on the inaugural episode of Collision last year. Larry even recently made it to the WWE store, becoming the first pet to have its own merchandise.

Earlier today, CM Punk along with Zoey Stark appeared at Mattel's San Diego Comic-Con panel to promote upcoming WWE action figures. During the Q & A Session of the panel, a fan asked Punk whether his dog would ever show up on WWE TV. The Best in the World playfully turned down the idea by saying Larry is not allowed on TV anymore, subtly referencing AEW.

Only time will tell whether Larry will make his presence felt in front of the WWE Universe. But Punk's furry friend has been referenced on RAW quite a few times during the ongoing feud between him and McIntyre.

The Scotsman recently stole The Straight Edge Superstar's bracelet which has AJ Lee and Larry's name on it.

CM Punk opens up about AJ Lee's potential WWE return

AJ Lee has been away from the wrestling scene since leaving the Stamford-based promotion in 2015. Though she briefly returned as the executive producer for Women Of Wrestling (WOW), it didn't lead to her in-ring comeback.

With Punk back in WWE, many fans have been wondering whether AJ would follow in her husband's footsteps. During the post-show media scrum after Money in the Bank this year, The Second City Saint said he would like to see his wife back in WWE:

"It's really all on her. She's busy, I'm super proud of her, she's doing her own thing. She's got a, I don't even know if I'm allowed to talk about this stuff, she's got a production company started up, she's writing TV, movies, all kinds of stuff, and I laughably always say I'm a bad husband because I never know what project she's talking about... I will say as a fan of hers, would love to see it [ AJ Lee's return]."

CM Punk is all set to lock horns with Drew McIntyre at SummerSlam in Cleveland this year. As per Adam Pearce, Seth Rollins will be the Special Guest Referee of the bout. With both men having deep-seated issues with The Visionary, it'll be interesting to see how Rollins calls the match.
