CM Punk hilariously reacted to a mistake he made on a major TV show today following last night's edition of WWE RAW. The Second City Saint will be making his return to the squared circle this Saturday night at SummerSlam in Cleveland, Ohio.

The 45-year-old suffered a torn triceps during the Men's Royal Rumble match earlier this year but announced last Monday night on WWE RAW that he had been cleared to return to action. He will be facing Drew McIntyre at the premium live event this weekend with Seth Rollins serving as the Special Guest Referee. CM Punk appeared on ESPN's First Take today and was asked to give his top five wrestlers of all time.

He named Harley Race, Terry Funk, Stone Cold Steve Austin, Eddie Guerrero, Ricky Steamboat and also mentioned Roddy Piper. However, CM Punk forgot to name Bret Hart on his list and took to his Instagram story to correct his mistake. The former AEW Champion shared an updated list of his top five wrestlers and only named Bret Hart. You can check out Punk's post on Instagram by clicking here.

Seth Rollins announced his rules and regulations as Special Guest Referee at SummerSlam during last night's episode of WWE RAW. The Visionary claimed that the only rule was that both stars had to listen to him during the match this weekend.

Wrestling legend Vince Russo did not enjoy the promo between CM Punk, Drew McIntyre, and Seth Rollins during last night's show in Minnesota.

Speaking on this week's episode of Sportskeeda Wrestling's Legion of RAW podcast, the veteran claimed the promo accomplished nothing. Russo added that it went on for far too long and said it was "hot garbage."

"You guys want to carry on about Vince McMahon scripting promos? I wish Vince McMahon scripted this promo. This promo was all over the place. It absolutely su*ked with all freaking parties involved. It went on for about 18 minutes, it went nowhere, and it ends with the five-cent bracelet again at the end. This was hot garbage," Russo said. [From 11:31 onwards]

Drew McIntyre is in possession of a bracelet with CM Punk's wife (former WWE star AJ Lee) and his dog's name on it. It will be fascinating to see which star emerges victorious at the premium live event this weekend.
