WWE World Heavyweight Champion GUNTHER will defend his title against CM Punk for the first time ever at tomorrow’s WWE Holiday Tour event at the Allstate Arena. The Allstate Arena holds historical significance for Punk, who won the WWE Championship there at Money in the Bank 2011.
Punk’s 2024 has been memorable but also hindered by a tricep injury. GUNTHER has dominated the WWE landscape this year as World Heavyweight Champion, consistently delivering hard-hitting matches against top contenders.
This highly anticipated match pits Punk’s experience and defiant attitude against GUNTHER’s raw power and dominant in-ring presence.
