CM Punk is one of the most famous and controversial superstars in WWE. Ever since his return to WWE, fans were excited to see him go against several top superstars. However, Punk suffered a triceps injury that ruled him out of WrestleMania, disappointing all the wrestling fans. 

Now, after a successful triceps surgery, he revealed when he is expected to be fully back in the ring. During a conversation with TNT Sports, The Second City Saint revealed that it will take almost 6–8 months before he is fully cleared to compete in the ring again. Punk admitted that injuries are a part of sports, and this is what happens to athletes regularly.

Punk further added that he is not in any rush to compete in the ring again. He made getting better and healthier his top priority. He suffered an injury during the Royal Rumble match when he landed awkwardly on his arm while taking the Future Shock DDT. Punk was unable to win the match, as Cody Rhodes eliminated him to win.

We're thinking maybe six to eight months but I'm not really in a rush to get back to compete, I'm in a rush to get healthy, I'm in a rush to get better and the sooner I do that the better I'll be when I come back.

While speaking with TNT Sports, Punk said that The Rock’s return is fantastic, and will only benefit the company. The 45-year-old star also compared this return to the one he made a decade ago while doing a program with Punk, saying the landscape has completely changed now. 

I think it's fantastic. Ten Years ago, I was the guy who was wrestling The Rock when he came back, and now ten years later, he's coming back, and I think the landscape has completely changed, right? WrestleMania is two nights now. It's even bigger. His coming back only helps. I always say high tide raises all ships.
