CM Punk has been a hot topic in the world of wrestling since he was fired by AEW, with cause, on September 2 stemming from a backstage incident with Jack Perry at AEW All In.
Punk might be a free agent, but his non-compete status is currently unknown. Punk did return to screens at CFFC MMA to do commentary. He said during the event that he has time on his hands for two months.
Speaking on The Happy Hour, Montez Ford was asked what he would say to WWE management if they asked him about potentially bringing Punk back into the mix.
"If they asked my opinion on it, I'm so open to every single aspect, talent in the world, whether they come from all works of life. I feel like everyone has something to bring to the table. Believe it or not, whether people love this individual or not, and this goes for any WWE superstar, if they are generating buzz and generating topics and generating people talking, that's all good for business. I love to be the person to always welcome someone back with great arms. If he wants to make his way back this way, I guess we can have a battle and see who is the best person from Chicago," he said.
Ford is currently aligned with Bobby Lashley & Angelo Dawkins on WWE SmackDown.
Ford & Dawkins will face Rey Mysterio & Santos Escobar on the September 22 episode of WWE SmackDown.
