CM Punk revealed that he had a conversation with Vince McMahon after he returned to WWE last year. The veteran was fired by All Elite Wrestling in September 2023 and returned to WWE at Survivor Series last November.
Speaking with Ariel Helwani on The MMA Hour today, CM Punk shared that he had a conversation with Vince McMahon following his return to the promotion. McMahon resigned from the company in January ahead of Royal Rumble. Punk stated that he got a tour of the new towers and that McMahon hugged him but he hasn't seen Vince since. CM Punk joked that some stuff came up, referring to the disturbing lawsuit against Vince McMahon by former WWE employee Janel Grant.
