CM Punk’s first full year in WWE for over nine years was a bonafide success, but the star is looking to take things to the next level in 2025.
CM Punk had one of the feuds of the year with Drew McIntyre and joined Roman Reigns’ WarGames team at Survivor Series.
The Best in the World capped off the year by taking on Gunther for the World Heavyweight Championship at a WWE house show and he’s aiming for gold in 2025.

Heading into the New Year, Punk eyed two huge WWE wins and teased a continuation of his feud with both The New Day and Mysterio.
Talking on a WWE social media clip, Punk said: “Win the Royal Rumble, beat everybody, win all the titles, continue to make the New Day dress in the janitor’s closet, and shave Dominik Mysterio’s mustache.”
Punk is set to take on Seth Rollins at WWE Raw’s Netflix debut on January 6.
Nic Nemeth calls for Seth Rollins dominant win against CM Punk
Punk and Rollins’ clash on WWE Raw’s Netflix debut is one of the most hotly anticipated matches in a very long time.
The match could go either way with both top stars usually coming out on top in their matches. Former World Heavyweight Champion Nic Nemeth believes Rollins should get the big win.
On Busted Open Radio, he said: “Don’t give us some weird finish or a non-finish. A definitive Seth win is the way I would go.”
Punk and Rollins’s last singles clash was over a decade ago on WWE Raw which saw the Best in the World pick up the win.
