CM Punk will wrestle his first matches back in WWE when he takes on Dominik Mysterio at the WWE Holiday Tour live events next week.
The first match is scheduled for December 26 at Madison Square Garden in New York City. The second match takes place on December 30 at the Kia Forum in Inglewood, CA.
While calling a CFFC (MMA) show over the weekend, Punk stated that he’s been wanting to punch Mysterio in the face since he was 8 years old, a reference to the 2010 feud with Punk and Rey Mysterio that Dominik was a part of. Punk lost the feud and ended up having his head shaved due to the stipulation of the match.
Mysterio responded to Punk’s remarks by sharing a GIF of when the Second City Saint failed to hit a springboard clothesline in AEW.
