Will CM Punk return to WWE? 

CM Punk's future with All Elite Wrestling (AEW) remains in thin air following the backstage physical altercation at AEW's All Out. As AEW is likely to buy out his contract, there are rumours about him making a comeback to WWE. However, according to Dave Meltzer there are people in the company that do not want Punk to join. While there is no word on the uninterested people, Meltzer stated they are not part of the creative team, and the final decision about Punk returning would come down to Triple H, Stephanie McMahon, and Nick Khan. Besides the three, even CM Punk needs to have interest in coming back to WWE.

The report further says that while Triple H isn't interested in signing Punk for WWE after his fallout with the company during his first stint. However, if Punk is interested in continuing to compete, and ends up leaving AEW then there are chances that he would want to have a go with WWE for the second time.
