by September 1, 2025

CM Punk faced a disappointing outcome at WWE Clash in Paris, where he lost the match for the WWE World Heavyweight Title. As Monday Night Raw approaches, details about his participation have been made public.

Punk shared on his Instagram story that he has arrived backstage at RAW and has been signing merchandise for fans. This confirms his presence at the event, although WWE has yet to officially announce his involvement.

During Clash in Paris, Punk came close to securing the championship, but an attack from Becky Lynch, who delivered a low blow, ultimately led to his defeat and allowed Seth Rollins to retain the title.

Fans are eager to see if Punk will confront Rollins and Lynch on tonight’s show, which could potentially lead to new storylines. Additionally, there are reports suggesting that the conclusion of Clash in Paris may lay the groundwork for AJ Lee’s return, as she has been a topic of discussion in various internal creative proposals.
