CM Punk Names Final Goal He Has To Conquer

CM Punk has a dream.

Across two spells with WWE, an explosive run with AEW, and a stint with Ring of Honor that helped launch him to wrestling stardom, CM Punk has pretty much done it all.

Punk is currently enjoying his second run as World Heavyweight Champion after beating Jey Uso at Saturday Night’s Main Event, and he’s already locked in for several huge events that are just around the corner.

There was also the small matter of that main event on night one of WrestleMania 41. Punk had been open about his desire and need to headline the spectacular, so after achieving his dream, what’s next?

CM Punk Wants History In Chicago

While speaking to Mostly Sports, Punk said that he’d love to wrestle at Wrigley Field, the home of the Chicago Cubs MLB franchise, before he retires. Interestingly, he claimed that the executives at the grand old stadium would love to host a WWE show, but logistically, it’s proving a difficult thing to put together.

“Wrigley Field. Wrestle at Wrigley Field. I’m putting that one out into the universe right now.

The executives at Wrigley are chomping at the bit, they want a WWE show. The problem with it, and I’ll throw Major League Baseball under the bus, is that they won’t release the schedule until they want to so we can’t get a jumpstart and look at dates and stuff like that. Yes, Wrigley hosts concerts in the summertime, but they won’t give us a big enough head start to figure out dates.

That’s why I was kinda rooting for the Dodgers to win the World Series to solidify a lockout in 2027. I’m 100% selfish, if there’s no baseball in 2027, it means I’m selling out Wrigley Field. I’ve sold out every place in Chicago with a roof so I’ve gotta go to these outdoor places.

Wrigley to me is church, it’s got a little bit of wrestling history, there was some matches there. I’m looking forward to that, that’s what I have to conquer in Chicago.”

CM Punk will be back in action at Survivor Series, where he’ll team with Cody Rhodes, Roman Reigns, and The Usos to face Drew McIntyre, Logan Paul, Brock Lesnar, Bron Breakker, and Bronson Reed inside WarGames.
