Although CM Punk is expected to make his return to pro wrestling in AEW this Friday, he’s been acting while away from the pro wrestling business and looks to former WWE star Dave Bautista as inspiration.
“I watch guys, friends of mine, Dave Bautista, do these huge blockbuster roles but also do roles that are challenging to him because he wants to grow and be a better actor,” Punk told the Movie Trivia Schmoedown. “I just want to follow in his footsteps.”
The future WWE Hall of Famer tweeted out the following today:
“I already knew this. And the talent is obvious. He’s going to be bigger in films than he was in wrestling. Save this tweet.”
