WWE Superstar CM Punk confirmed a face-to-face with a major star on tonight's edition of RAW. The Second City Saint returned to the ring at SummerSlam after missing seven months with a torn triceps.
Drew McIntyre took credit for injuring CM Punk during the Men's Royal Rumble match in January, and the two stars battled at SummerSlam with Seth Rollins serving as the Special Guest Referee. Punk got angry at Rollins when he spotted The Visionary wearing the bracelet with AJ Lee and his dog's name on it and hit him with a GTS. McIntyre then caught Punk with a Claymore for the pinfall victory.

Former AEW star Jade Cargill shared her thoughts on working with CM Punk in WWE.
Jade Cargill wrapped up her tenure in All Elite Wrestling last year and debuted in WWE during the Fastlane 2023 Kickoff Show. CM Punk was fired by All Elite Wrestling last September following a backstage altercation with Jack Perry at All In 2023.
In an exclusive interview with Sportskeeda Wrestling, Cargill noted that Punk's energy is infectious, and he is a straight shooter.
"I mean, he's [CM Punk] a straight-forth guy," Cargill said. "Like, I don't know. He's just infectious. His energy's infectious. He wants everybody to do great. He's a straight shooter. If he sees something he doesn't like, he's the type of person to come over and tell me, 'Jade, that was cr*p,' or whatever he'll say in his form of words." [From 03:57 – 04:14]
