WWE Superstar CM Punk ended his rivalry with Drew McIntyre at Bad Blood. Despite the gruesome battle at the premium live event, The Second City Saint is seemingly present at the venue for tonight's RAW.
Punk and McIntyre locked horns in a Hell in a Cell Match to open Bad Blood. The two former WWE Champions were busted open during the contest. Although The Best in the World secured the win, he collapsed on his way out and needed an oxygen mask for breathing.
In a recent clip shared by WWE, Punk appeared to have sustained a black eye as well. However, he recently took to Instagram stories to post a video of himself signing his posters for the fans. He appeared to be in physical pain and added the track "Everything Hurts and I'm Dying" by Lone Creep to the Instagram Story. He also added #MondayNightRaw to his post, confirming that he will be on the show later tonight at Enterprise Center in St. Louis.
WWE will also tape next week's show in St. Louis tonight, as the company is set to travel to United Kingdom for live events next week. Since the red brand is returning to being a two-hour show starting tonight, it is possible that Punk could be featured next week's pre-taped episode.

CM Punk reveals why WWE fans love to see his rivalry with Drew McIntyre
The heated rivalry between CM Punk and Drew McIntyre is being hailed as the best WWE feud of this year. Ahead of the Hell in a Cell Match, the former AEW star had explained why wrestling fans loved to watch the two go up against each other.
During a recent interview with Spiegel & Holmes on 670 The Score, CM Punk gave examples of a couple of rivalries in sports to point out that people like to see a blood feud. He compared his rivalry with the Scotsman to a good car crash. The former AEW star further fired brutal shots at McIntyre, calling him a piece of sh*t.
"People enjoy a good rivalry. I think Drew is a piece of sh*t. Asking me what I think of him is kind of a loaded question. You’re not going to get me to say anything really flattering about him. It’s a good car crash. I understand, people like to watch that. They like to watch a good blood feud. I like when the Blackhawks play...they don’t really play Detroit anymore. Minnesota? I like when the Cubs play the [White] Sox, a little crosstown rivalry. I get it," he said. [H/T: Fightful]
On the RAW following Bash in Berlin, CM Punk teased going after the World Heavyweight Championship. With Gunther defending the title against Sami Zayn later tonight, The Best in the World might confront the winner.
