The return of Randy Orton had just helped propel Seth Rollins, Cody Rhodes, Jey Uso and Sami Zayn to a huge victory over Judgment Day in the main event of WWE Survivor Series 2023: War Games.
But just as the five Superstars were celebrating Saturday night, the fans at the Allstate Arena in Rosemont, Illinois — and the WWE Universe as a whole — were about to get another shocking return like no other in the form of CM Punk.
Rumored for weeks after his departure from AEW, Punk made a chilling return to WWE to end Survivor Series as his hometown Chicago fans lost their minds.
He embraced fans ringside while flashing a grin at the Superstars in the cage.
And just like that, the return that many thought would never be possible has come to fruition as CM Punk is back in WWE!
