CM Punk Addresses WWE Retirement Ahead Of Elimination Chamber
CM Punk has achieved new heights ever since returning to WWE at Elimination Chamber 2023.
The Second City Saint left the company in 2014, and the fallout was rather public. The company had sent his release papers on his wedding day, which Punk believes was intentional, while WWE claimed it was coincidental.
However, since his return, he has proven to be a WWE guy, a team fellow, and someone worthy of the World Heavyweight Championship.
CM Punk has answered the retirement question
The World Heavyweight Champion spoke exclusively to Metro ahead of WWE Elimination Chamber. In that conversation, he spoke about possibly being treated like Rey Mysterio as he neared the 30-year mark in the industry.
Furthermore, he dove into his retirement, claiming that he would like to continue in the same way Rey Mysterio did. In fact, he wants to keep going until he is known as Mr. Wrestling!
I get it every other question, ‘Hey, when are you gonna retire?’ It’s like, well, slow down!
Like I look at a guy like Rey [Mysterio] and he’s timeless, and he inspires me to put my boots on and keep going.
I love the fact that I’m back and looking forward to the future. Gordie Howe played in the NHL until he was 52, and he’s Mr. Hockey, you know? I try not to put a time limit. I try to never say never anymore, until I’m known as Mr. Wrestling.
