CM Punk seemingly concerned with recent SmackDown storyline
CM Punk is among the most popular stars on Monday Night RAW. However, The Second City Saint's recent actions suggest he may be concerned with an ongoing storyline on WWE's blue brand.
On the November 22 edition of Friday Night SmackDown, a mysterious attacker took out Jade Cargill backstage while her tag team partner Bianca Belair was competing in a first-round Triple Threat Match in the Women's United States Championship Tournament. The Storm has since been absent from WWE television. However, after The EST teamed up with Naomi to defend the Women's Tag Team Title last week, Cargill broke her silence by posting a picture of herself with blood on her face.
Jade Cargill's captionless Instagram update caught the attention of several WWE Superstars, including CM Punk, who liked the post. Interestingly, moments after the 32-year-old was attacked backstage, The Best in The World showed up on SmackDown alongside the returning Paul Heyman and aligned with the OG Bloodline for WWE Survivor Series: WarGames.
It will be interesting to see if the former WWE World Champion has something to do with the storyline involving the former AEW TBS Champion.

CM Punk is set for a huge match at the WWE RAW Netflix Premiere
CM Punk and Seth Rollins have been firing shots at each other since the 46-year-old's return to WWE after nearly a decade at Survivor Series: WarGames 2023.
Last week's episode of Monday Night RAW started with Punk and Rollins battling on the mic. However, it soon led to a brawl. Later in the show, a singles match between the bitter rivals was announced for the red brand show's debut on Netflix on January 6.
CM Punk emerged victorious the last time he competed against Seth Rollins in a singles match. The contest took place almost 11 years ago on the December 30, 2013, edition of Monday Night RAW. The Visionary will be hoping for a different result this time around.
