We have an interesting rumor to pass your way involving CM Punk. This also has to do with WWE’s upcoming studio show that will be airing on FOX Sports 1.
According to Dave Meltzer in the latest Wrestling Observer Newsletter (subscribe here), Punk’s agency has reached out to FOX. This has to do with him potentially co-hosting the upcoming WWE studio show.
Here is what Meltzer wrote:
“CAA, which represents Punk and also represents WWE, has had an agent reach out to FOX head honchos about Punk as a co-host of the upcoming new FS 1 talk show.
From a WWE standpoint, my gut is that they’d hate the idea. He’d be working for FOX, not WWE. We’re told there have been no negotiations at all regarding that. The impression is WWE wouldn’t like it but things change daily.
My Take: What a wild turn of events this would be. Punk talking about the WWE product would definitely drive ratings for that studio show. This wouldn’t mean Punk is returning to WWE though as he would be employed by FOX. Still, it would definitely be interesting to see it happen. Take with a grain of salt until more details come out.
