CM Punk is about to complete a year since his emphatic return to WWE at Survivor Series. While his second run has been hampered by injury so far, he looks to make a lasting impact now that he is cleared. In fact, Punk has promised a former World Champion that he will main event Madison Square Garden with him.
Speaking on 103.5 KISS FM, the Second City Saint revealed that Damian Priest could not main event MSG this year due to travel issues. It was an unfortunate sequence of events for the latter, as main eventing The Garden is considered holy in wrestling. At that time, Punk decided to make a promise to Priest, vowing to have a match with him at MSG next time.
He was supposed to main event The Garden in like a dark match and he had really bad flight trouble a couple months back, so he didn’t make it. So I owe him that. At least I think I told him that [laughs]. So the answer unfortunately is everybody.

Moreover, from the current crop of rising stars, he named stars like Chad Gable, Ludwig Kaiser, and Gunther. The 45-year-old is also reportedly in line to face The Ring General at Survivor Series after winding up his feud with Drew McIntyre.
