The wrestling world is never short of drama when it comes to behind-the-scenes news. One of the biggest wrestlers who keeps the pot boiling is none other than CM Punk. The 45-year-old was recently fired by All Elite Wrestling and he is now rumored to be back on his way to World Wrestling Entertainment.

Despite the Chicago native being away from the television there is a huge clamour for his return. The All Elite Wrestling has seen a mysterious figure under a devil's mask during the last few weeks. This has led to a lot of speculation on the likely figure under the mask with fans throwing in their suggestions. 

Out of the public view, CM Punk has stirred the pot once again. This though his cryptic post has started a whole new debate amongst the wrestling fans about the masked figure on AEW’s TV.

Once the story went viral, fans concluded that CM Punk could likely be the figure under the mask. This also left many fans excited about CM Punk possibly returning to the All Elite Wrestling TV sooner.

Former WCW boss and WWE Hall of Famer, Eric Bischoff recently spoke on the chances of CM Punk being under the mask. Eric Bischoff made these comments during his 83-week podcast and said “We’re dealing in fantasy land here. So I preface everything with an ‘I don’t believe any of this is real”

Bischoff further said “If this Punk’s firing was something that was conceived initially – back when CM Punk first went off on Tony Khan and had his meltdown and issues with The Bucks and whoever else he had issues with – if that was all a work, and this is the result of this. I’ll put it over as the best story has ever been told”

CM Punk over the weeks has been rumored to be back on his way to World Wrestling Entertainment after quitting the company in early 2014. As per reports CM Punk could be part of the Survivor Series Premium Live Event which is to be held in Chicago on the 25th of November.
