CM Punk will be appearing on tonight's WWE RAW at the Allstate Arena in Chicago, Illinois. The veteran has delivered a message to fans ahead of tonight's show.
The controversial star was fired by All Elite Wrestling last September following a backstage altercation with Jack Perry. Punk returned to WWE at Survivor Series last year, while Jack Perry still has not appeared on AEW television since the incident.
Punk competed in the Men's Royal Rumble match in January but suffered a torn triceps. Drew McIntyre brutally attacked the veteran in January as a way to write him off of television. Ahead of his appearance on tonight's RAW, the Second City Saint took to his Instagram story to send a message to fans. He shared a picture of Harley Race and noted that he was going to work.

Speaking with Riju Dasgupta in an exclusive interview with Sportskeeda Wrestling, Braun Strowman was asked about Punk's return to WWE. Strowman admitted that he has heard mixed things about the veteran but said he wouldn't form an opinion on Punk until he meets him:
"He's doing his job," Strowman said. "At the end of the day, our job is to put eyes on the product and butts in seats, and, well, it looks like he's doing it. I've heard mixed reviews from multiple people on what kind of person he is. I'll find out when I meet him, and he can get in line and get these hands just like anybody else." [3:53 – 4:07]
