CM Punk to turn heel in 2025 and call out Triple H on WWE RAW due to one major reason? Potential storyline explored
CM Punk returned to WWE TV last month on Friday Night SmackDown ahead of the Survivor Series: WarGames 2024 Premium Live Event. Paul Heyman, who also returned to television after several months, introduced The Best in The World as the fifth member of the OG Bloodline's WarGames team.
Punk, alongside the OG Bloodline, secured a big victory against Team Solo Sikoa at Survivor Series: WarGames. After the successful outing in Canada, The Second City Saint made his return on Monday Night RAW. He has since been involved in a heated feud with Seth Rollins.
The latest episode of the red brand saw both superstars get involved in a brawl. The security personnel had to intervene to separate them. Following the chaos, General Manager Adam Pearce officially announced a singles match between Punk and Rollins for RAW's debut on Netflix on January 6, 2025.
The historic event could plant the seeds for The Best in The World's heel turn. Multiple experts and fans believe that Roman Reigns' Tribal Combat with Solo Sikoa will likely main event RAW’s season premiere on the streaming giant. If this indeed happens, an infuriated CM Punk may turn on Triple H for robbing him of his main-event spot once again. Notably, the Hell in a Cell Match between Punk and Drew McIntyre did not headline Bad Blood. The Straight Edge Superstar may drop Pipebomb 2.0 and start a feud with the management.
This move would add an extra layer of excitement to Punk-Rollins' saga, especially given the past real-life issues between The Game and The Voice of The Voiceless. Taking advantage of this, The Visionary could even re-form The Authority faction with Triple H.
However, this is speculative at this point.
CM Punk and Seth Rollins' feud to end before WrestleMania 41?
A much-anticipated match between Seth Rollins and CM Punk was allegedly planned for WrestleMania 40. However, the plans were reportedly binned after The Voice of the Voiceless sustained a real-life injury while performing in the Men's Royal Rumble 2024.
Fans will finally get to see the anticipated showdown between The Straight Edge Superstar and Rollins at the season premiere of RAW on Netflix. With that, enthusiasts are wondering whether this storyline will end before WrestleMania 41, as The Show of Shows is still months away.
It appears the rivalry between The Architect and CM Punk will lead to multiple matches. Most likely, both megastars would conclude their feud after locking horns at WrestleMania 41.
However, this is just conjecture at this point. It remains to be seen what plans the Triple H-led creative team has in store for this thrilling saga.
