CM Punk receives massive message from Shawn Michaels hours before WWE NXT Deadline

CM Punk just received a massive message from Shawn Michaels moments before NXT Deadline.

Punk shocked the pro wrestling world when he made his return to WWE at Survivor Series: WarGames. Since his comeback, he has shown up on both RAW and SmackDown and is the top free agent in the company.

With both brands looking to sign him, Punk stated on SmackDown that he would make a phone call to Shawn Michaels over the weekend. He even recently posted on social media that he missed his flight and is in Bridgeport, Connecticut, which is the venue for NXT Deadline.

Hence, Michaels invited Punk to show up at Deadline so that they could talk in person instead of having a conversation over the phone.

"@CMPunk Since you’re in Bridgeport and have some time, let’s forgo the phone call and talk in person."

"I gotta see this."

According to him, The Tribal Chief needed the victory more than Brock Lesnar, as the latter was already an established performer when he defeated ‘Taker. He would’ve also made that as Taker’s final match.
