According to a prominent sports website, CM Punk has pocketed a very lucrative deal with WWE after he made an explosive comeback. Sources also reveal CM Punk’s comeback will bring an end to his five-year spell with the UFC. Though it is not known whether CM Punk will be making a full-time return to WWE’s Backstage show or not. But it is expected that CM Punk will not be making his in-ring WWE comeback.
A few weeks ago, while talking on a radio show, CM Punk talked about WWE and revealed that his agents called him a few months ago and said that FOX is doing a WWE talk show (WWE Backstage) and assured CM Punk that he has to not deal with anyone from WWE. After hearing the deal, Punk’s reaction was "okay". Later, WWE COO Triple H also revealed that The Backstage show is being produced by FOX and not WWE. So, if FOX wants to hire Punk they can, WWE has nothing to do with it.
