Speaking on The Hall of Fame, Booker T was asked about the rumors surrounding CM Punk’s potential return to WWE. He stated that he wouldn’t put it past WWE bringing Punk back.

“I could see CM Punk wanting to find his way back into the WWE. I could see that. We’re talking about it right now. Also, I’m gonna go out on a limb here. I’m not gonna put it past WWE hiring him back. I don’t know, I can’t say. But I do know that just about everybody that’s left WWE has come back, no matter what problems they’ve had. Even The Ultimate Warrior, I don’t think anybody thought The Ultimate Warrior would come back,” Booker T said.
