CM Punk Appears At UFC 298, Provides A Positive Update On His Recovery

WWE Superstar CM Punk has spoken out about his recent injury and provided a hopeful timeline for his return to the ring. Fans were thrilled to see Punk enter the 2024 Royal Rumble, but his comeback was cut short by a nasty turn of events.

During a match against Drew McIntyre, Punk suffered a torn triceps muscle after receving a signature "Future Shock DDT" maneuver.



Despite the pain, Punk showcased his fighting spirit by battling through the match before being eliminated by Cody Rhodes. On the following RAW episode, he openly acknowledged the injury, confirming his absence from the highly anticipated WrestleMania 40 and addressing the subsequent attack by his rival.

In a recent interview with Caroline Pearce conducted at UFC 298, McIntyre expressed his disappointment about missing out on the coveted WrestleMania main event spot. However, he also offered a positive update on his recovery, providing fans with a glimpse of light at the end of the tunnel.

You know, fingers crossed, yeah, I was going to headline WrestleMania. Obviously, now I’m not. But, you know, it’s sports. It’s what happens to athletes. Mentally, I think it’s harder because the physical pain is whatever. But I look at it just like a bump in the road. This is an occupational hazard. It happens and I’ll be back bigger and better. I’m a clumsy idiot. I tore my left triceps about two years ago, so the right one was jealous.”

“I’m like an old cobbler. I’m like a 72 Nova, you know what I mean? We have to change some parts every now and again. So once we fix up all the parts, the engine’s still strong, we’ll still be good to go. We’re thinking maybe six to eight months, but I’m not really in a rush to get back to compete. I’m in a rush to get healthy. I’m in a rush to get better. The sooner I do that, the better I’ll be when I come back.”
