"Once I'm crippled and can't go anymore," CM Punk details his plans for WWE retirement 

CM Punk is set to turn 47 next month, and it appears that he could have some plans to wind down his career in the near future.

While speaking on the Pardon My Take podcast, CM Punk opened up about the different options that he has

"I think I'm that five-tool player. You can put me on commentary. I could ref. That probably wouldn't work; I'd probably take some attention away from whoever's in the ring. But there's so many behind-the-scenes roles. We call them producers now but in my day we called them agents. There's people who put shows together. There's writers, obviously, creative people. I love all aspects of the business. There's like 1000 hats I could wear once I'm crippled and I can't go anymore."

CM Punk will team with his wife in a dream match for the former World Champion as they take on Becky Lynch and Seth Rollins at Wrestlepalooza.

It was a shock that Punk returned to WWE back in 2023, but now he has become a major part of weekly programming.

CM Punk has one more World Championship run in him

Punk won the World Championship from Gunther at SummerSlam back in August, but Seth Rollins cashed in his Money in the Bank contract moments later and took it away.

Rollins and Punk have had their own issues over the past few years, and it could culminate in another World Championship match between the two men in the near future. Despite pushing 50 years old, Punk and his wife could pick up the win this weekend and catapult him back into the title picture.

Rollins still holds the World Championship and could be forced to defend it against his long-time adversary at Survivor Series in November or even at Crown Jewel in Australia next month.
