CM Punk appears to be significantly bulked up ahead of his anticipated WWE return, with a fan-captured workout video circulating online showing the WWE star looking visibly more muscular than during his most recent TV appearance.
Punk has not appeared on WWE TV since the post-WrestleMania Raw on April 20, when he had a face-off with Cody Rhodes. His absence is reportedly due to scheduled time off rather than an injury, with Punk pulled from European Summer Tour advertising and several June Raw dates.
A fan posted footage of a recent workout on X, with CM Punk visible in the background. The footage shows Punk with a more muscular upper body, particularly in the arms and shoulders, compared to his appearance on the April 20th Raw.

Punk’s specific WWE return timeline has not been publicly confirmed. It should be noted that Punk is advertised for Raw dates this summer, including on July 6th in Chicago.
