When stars made their entrance to the ring throughout the show, the shirts could be spotted. This is something that is definitely new since there were no CM Punk t-shirts in the crowd and the WWE Universe had even moved on from the CM Punk chants until he decided to answer the prayers of his fanbase and make his return on Tuesday night.
