Mike Chioda was back with another edition of his “Monday Mailbag” podcast yesterday to discuss the possibility of CM Punk returning to WWE.
The former WWE referee says he thinks WWE and CM Punk should put their differences aside and do business with each other for the benefit of the fans and ratings.
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On a potential return to WWE for CM Punk: “I wouldn’t let go of CM Punk because from a business point of view, whether they start pinning Punk down the road a year or two from now or whatever they do with him, I think they’ll take him away from AEW. That would be a huge draw in ratings on TV for WWE if they get Punk back.”
On what WWE should pay Punk: “Kevin Owens is getting a great contract [of 3 to 5 million dollars a year]. There’s a lot of guys getting contracts and getting paid. Roman [Reigns] is probably making 8 to 10 million a year. If Punk came in making $5 million a year or whatever it is, I would. I’d put all of my differences aside and say ‘Let’s do business.’”
