WWE makes massive Cody Rhodes change following CM Punk's return 

WWE just made a massive change involving Cody Rhodes after CM Punk's return to the company.

CM Punk made headlines when he made his much-anticipated return at WWE Survivor Series: WarGames. Since then, the Straight Edge Superstar has been busy appearing on RAW, SmackDown, and NXT Deadline. This week on RAW, Punk announced that he would join the red brand's roster.

Since his return to the company, Punk has been delivering promos, but he hasn't stepped back into the ring for a match yet. We reported earlier that Punk will compete at a WWE live event on 12/26 against Dominik Mysterio at Madison Square Garden. Now, new details have come to light about this match.

According to PWInsider, Dominik Mysterio was supposed to face Cody Rhodes in a Last Man Standing match. However, the former WWE Champion has since replaced Cody in the match.

This will also be the first time Punk has competed at Madison Square Garden since 2012.
