Nia Jax comments on the WWE return of CM Punk.
At WWE Survivor Series last weekend, it seemed like the show would go off the air without an appearance from the Voice Of The Voiceless. However, Punk would make a surprise appearance right as the show was about to go off th air, shocking the world by returning to the company he had left almost a decade prior.
Punk's return has been the talk of the wrestling industry in the week since, with many discussing the pros and cons of his promotional return.
Karolyi from Q1057 and 1035 in Albany, New York spoke with Nia Jax recently, and the topic of Punk was brought up. Jax noted that it's a great thing for WWE to have Punk back with the company, while also praising Randy Orton as a "top tier talent".
"That’s the great thing about WWE. I don’t think a lot of things could be seen with the recent events. I would love to predict the future, but the great thing about WWE is that it is unpredictable. It will always keep you on your toes. It will always surprise you and keep you excited. I love Randy Orton, he’s one of my favorite human beings and I’m such a huge fan of his, watched him when I was a kid and now getting to work with him. I’ve been RKO’d by him. He is a top tier talent. I’ve never had the chance to work with CM Punk, but I’ve heard many different things about him and I’m excited to see what he is able to bring since he’s been gone for a bit. There are so many things that can happen in WWE. The surprises we have, the returns we have. New people coming up from NXT. It’s very unpredictable but it will always be exciting and entertaining."
Punk made his Monday Night RAW return earlier this week where he declared that he was "home."
Punk is also scheduled to appear on next week's edition of Friday Night SmackDown. You can read more here.
