Former WWE Superstar CM Punk thinks the wrestling business is doing fine without him and claims he's not interested in wrestling Triple H.

Punk, aka Phil Brooks was speaking to Raj Prashad of UPROXX when the topic of a potential in-ring return arose.

"The wrestling world doesn’t necessarily need CM Punk and that’s absolutely fine. Everyone seems to be doing great," he said.

Later, Punk said that if he were to return to the ring, he'd be more interested in wrestling Kenny Omega than Triple H.

“From a creative mind standpoint, stepping back and looking at the landscape of everything, there are people in WWE that I have wrestled before that maybe, in a certain situation could be interesting,” Punk said. “There’s also the business side of things. What’s the biggest possible match for CM Punk? I think there’s Kenny Omega on the one side. And, you know, unfortunately, ironically enough, for me to go back to WWE, who’s the biggest match for me? It’s probably Triple H. That’s ironic because it’s nothing I’m interested in. It’s just what it is. Am I going to be a businessman and say that’s the match, that’s the big-money match? Well, it’s not my money, so it’s not for me to say.”

It's not the first time Punk has shown a lack of enthusiasm for a potential wrestling comeback. In November of 2019 he claimed that he has no interest in getting back in the ring anytime soon.
"I haven’t talked to anybody in WWE. It’s nothing that I’m actively pursuing or interested in, but I’m 41-years-old and I’ve experienced life where I know to not say ‘no.’ But that’s gonna be a bridge that is gonna have to be built and it might take as long as building the Great Wall of China because there are hurdles there,” Punk said during an interview with Renee Young on WWE Backstage.
