CM Punk promotes his upcoming return to the ring for WWE.
Punk returned to WWE back at Survivor Series in one of the most watched returns in the history of the promotion, and on this week’s edition of Monday Night RAW, he confirmed he would be a member of the Monday Night RAW roster. It was also announced earlier this week that on December 30th at the Kia Forum, Punk will go one on one with Judgment Day’s Dominik Mysterio.
Despite his WWE return, Punk remains a part of the Cage Fury Fighting Championship announce team as he was on the call for Friday’s CFFC 128 event in Atlantic City. During this show, Punk would take the time to promote his upcoming match with Dominik Mysterio, stating that now that he’s legal, he’s going to destroy him.
“Ladies and gentlemen, if you’re out there on the 30th, you better be watching some grappling. Unless you’re in LA, come out to the Kia Forum, watch me beat up Dirty Dominik. I’ve been wanting to punch this kid in the face since he was 8 years old. Now he’s legal and I’m going to destroy him.” he said.
