WWE executive wants AEW star CM Punk to be booked like Bloodline member
WWE veteran and current executive Road Dogg recently mentioned that CM Punk could be booked similarly to a Bloodline member.
Taking to Twitter, the real-life Brian James replied to the legendary Ricky Morton, who is hopeful of Punk's return to the professional wrestling industry.
In response to Morton, James claimed that a play on the former WWE Champion's name could be used like "Ucey". The term Ucey was first used by Sami Zayn, who established his place as one of the most popular stars on the main roster in 2022.
"PUNKY could be used like Ucey I guess," wrote James.

The Bloodline's current storyline with Zayn is regarded as one of the best angles in professional wrestling.
The angle also involves Kevin Owens, who has played a major role so far and will challenge Roman Reigns at the upcoming Royal Rumble premium live event.

Bill Apter praised CM Punk in his own unique way
Bill Apter recently praised former AEW World Champion CM Punk. Speaking on Sportskeeda Wrestling's The Wrestling Time Machine, the veteran mentioned that he would turn to Punk if he had to start a wrestling promotion.
Punk has been absent from AEW since the All Out pay-per-view. During the media scrum after the event, he took several shots at Kenny Omega and The Young Bucks, leading to a massive backstage brawl.
"If I had one guy in the world if I had my own promotion that I wanted to start an Attitude Era with, again, CM Punk would be my guy, nobody else," said Bill Apter.
Dude’s getting ready to continue that generational run 😈

Prior to his current hiatus, Punk was one of the hottest acts in AEW. He won the world championship twice, beating Hangman Adam Page and Jon Moxley respectively.
His status with AEW is currently in the air and hasn't been officially confirmed. It remains to be seen if the former WWE star will return for another run under Tony Khan's promotion.
