WWE Backstage analyst and special contributor CM Punk has been making waves ever since his arrival on the show back in November. Punk's return raised the hopes of many who were clamoring for him to return to the squared circle, but he hasn't given any indication that he'll hit the ring anytime soon.

CM Punk vs Stone Cold Steve Austin is one of those dream matches that fans never got to witness. Recently, Punk made his thoughts known on the idea of wrestling The Rattlesnake at a Saudi Arabia show. A fan posted a tweet asking for opinions on whether people want to see Punk vs Austin at a Saudi event in 2020. The fan asked users to retweet if they want to see the match, and like the tweet if they aren't interested in seeing these two lock horns inside the ring.
Punk lets the fan know what he thinks of a match against Austin in Saudi Arabia
Austin vs Punk with both in their primes would have been a WrestleMania main event worthy battle. Over the years, fans and wrestling experts have drawn comparisons between the two on various occasions. A match was teased between the two a few years ago, during the promotion of WWE '13, but nothing came of it.

Abhilash checks his articles thrice before sending them to the editing team, ensuring his work is highly accurate and reliable.
He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.
Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.
When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
