Jey Uso is the latest WWE star to weigh in on the return of CM Punk to the company, something Bobby Lashley did while speaking with our own Steve Fall.
The return
Punk returned to WWE at Survivor Series following the Men’s WarGames. WWE kept the return top secret, with only the main eventers knowing right before the match happened. He’s slated to feud with World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins.
Punk is internally listed as a free agent, which is why he previously appeared on Raw last week and is slated to appear on Friday’s SmackDown before going to Monday’s Raw.
Bring it on
While speaking on WWE’s The Bump, Uso shared his take that Raw should sign Punk and make him an exclusive star. This has been speculated about, considering Randy Orton just joined SmackDown.
“Sign CM Punk. Like, why wouldn’t we sign CM Punk? I know he got a whole bunch of haters or whatever. Hey, if we going to be honest, he’s a Superstar. First and foremost, people talk about him. And if we got anything to do with wrestling, his name is in it. He’s like on some Tribal Chief status. He’s [a] top guy regardless of whatever’s going on. So my invitation is open, man. Bring him, like, let’s go. Let’s run it, bro. I’ll be your first one to run with. It’s all good. It’s all love. Let’s go. Let’s run it. Welcome back though, CM Punk.”
