CM Punk Says He Will “Never, Ever” Wrestle Again

Controversial star has denied that he will ever return to the squared circle in new video interview.

CM Punk has denied that he will ever wrestle again.
Speaking to CBS Cleveland’s Chris Van Vilet at the AP Music Awards red carpet at the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame event which CM Punk co-hosted, the former WWE Champion and free agent was asked if fans would ever see him back wrestling in a squared circle. His response was calm and assured (before turning a little comical, but his initial response seemed genuine);
No, no. No. Never, ever. Never, ever, ever. They’re going to go crazy on Twitter, they’re going to hold me to it and yea whatever.”
When asked if he was a current WWE Superstar or a former WWE Superstar, Punk simply replied with;
“Neither. I’m CM Punk.”
This confirmation that Punk’s mindset is that he is retired from wrestling for good is pretty much the only time the controversial star has gone public about his wrestling future since quitting the WWE hours before the RAW show after January’s Royal Rumble. After staying quiet all throughout the year as his contract was expiring and the wrestling universe was going crazy with speculation over his status, Punk married AJ Lee and then officially became a free agent earlier this month after his WWE contract expired.

Another Update On C.M. Punk/WWE: Has Their Relationship Improved At All?

There was some speculation that C.M. Punk's relationship with WWE may have improved at least a little bit due to A.J. Lee's return and the fact that they aired his Best In The World documentary on the WWE Network. However, the word coming out of Raw on Monday night is that Punk's relationship with the company has not improved at all and that at this point their relationship is probably the worst that it's ever been.

It should also be noted that Punk's profile on WWE.com was moved to the Alumni section on the same day that his special aired on the WWE Network.

What WWE Won't Do When CM Punk's Contract Expires

We previously reported that WWE could add six months CM Punk's contract when it expires later this month, similar to what they did with Rey Mysterio for missing an extended period of time. However, a source notes that the company in all likelihood will not extend Punk's contract as the belief is that it's not in anyone's best interest.

CM Punk owns his own name and will be able to use it going forward, in fact his first post-contract appearance will be hosting the Gibson Brands AP Music Awards on July 21st.

WWE production told not to mention CM Punk

Last week, WWE aired a Money In The Bank numbers video similiar to the video they air when they hype the Royal Rumble. The numbers video noted that Kane and Christian had been in nine Money In The Bank matches (the most in history) and the most cash-ins were in June (2).

The word from the office to the production was to make sure CM Punk was not mentioned or shown in the video even though he won the Money In The Bank twice and cashed in and won the title when he cashed in.

CM Punk’s WWE contract expires this month

CM Punk might be free and clear from WWE this month since his deal is set to expire. There’s a chance that WWE extends his deal the way they did with Rey Mysterio since Punk technically “owes” them time for sitting out since late January. Mysterio’s deal was extended until next year since the company has the right to do so based on the terms of the contract. Basically, WWE claimed that Mysterio owed them time since he sat out with injuries.

So, I suppose they could do the same with Punk but I’m not sure how his deal is structured. If not then he’s free and clear to do whatever he wants after this month. I highly doubt we’ll see Punk wrestling for another company though since he’s pretty much set financially.
