Update on CM Punk's WWE return schedule from injury - Reports

CM Punk has been raising hell even while he's not cleared for action and fans are now eagerly anticipating his return to the WWE ring following Clash at the Castle.

The Straight Edge Superstar is ensuring his presence is felt more than ever in the WWE even if he's unable to compete after suffering a torn tricep at the Men's Royal Rumble match this year. Punk is also committing to his statement of making Drew McIntyre's life a living hell come true. He cost him the chance to win the WWE World Heavyweight Championship due to interference at Clash at the Castle Scotland.

The Voice of the Voiceless has turned up the heat on his rivalry with McIntyre and should expect some revenge to come back from the other side. CM Punk recently touted that he would not be appearing on Monday Night RAW this week but will appear on SmackDown hopefully with some good medical news.

WrestleVotes has now provided an update regarding Punk's return schedule to in-ring action in WWE from his injury. The report provided details that he won't likely be cleared for Money in the Bank but would be prepared once SummerSlam arrives.


Triple H is excited to work with CM Punk in the WWE

Even though few stars have their reservations about CM Punk being in the WWE, Triple H is quite excited to be working with him again in the company.

The Straight Edge Superstar has been making waves even while he's injured as as he appeared as a referee in the main event match at Clash at the Castle between Drew McIntyre and Damian Priest. The interference would see Punk kicking his rival, Drew below the belt which would allow Priest to retain his title.

During the post-show conference, Triple H mentioned his excitement about working with CM Punk in the WWE once again. He stated that Punk was a talent with great potential and the lengths that the Head of Creative went to so he could unlock that potential would cause friction:

"I cannot tell you how happy I am to have him back. I cannot tell you how exciting it is for me to see the Phil Brooks that I wanted to see then. While maybe my efforts to get that were taken wrong and it's what led to friction, I always knew the Phil Brooks that I see today was inside there, just couldn't express it in the right way. So, as much as this has changed, he has changed. And I gotta tell you, it's amazing. I'm excited, I'm excited for the future and I'm excited to not just work with him but just to be around him."

It's going to be exciting for the fans to see what kind of damage CM Punk and his rival Drew McIntyre will cause one another moving forward.
