CM Punk Returning to WWE? Speculation Grows as Wife AJ Lee Returns to Raw and Claims Diva's Title

New speculation about CM Punk's return to the WWE is rampant given that wife AJ Lee has returned to the organization and taken back her championship title. Punk has until July 17 to decide whether he wants to remain under contract with the WWE.

According to one report, AJ's return on Monday shocked fans who were not expecting her to return so soon. Not only did Lee return, she took back her championship title from the woman who took it from her – Paige. All eyes have now turned back to Punk, as fans continue to hope that the wild card will return to the WWE and continue wreaking havoc in the way he did before leaving.

The WWE announced this week that they would be featuring Punk on the Wrestlemania Rewind episode, adding fuel to the fire that the organization truly wants the superstar to return. If he did, he would immediately boost sales and interest in the WWE, which it desperately needs after owner Vince McMahon suffered a severe financial loss.

Fans have always rallied behind Punk and continue to chant his name at all events. They want their superstar back. That was never more evident than when WWE Monday Night Raw was in Punk's hometown of Chicago, Illinois. His former manager Paul Heyman played Punk's music, bringing the crowd to its feet, but when Heyman walked out instead of Punk, the arena erupted into a chorus of boos and chants for Punk's return.

Heyman, ever the heel, taunted fans and told them that there would be no return for Punk but that he wanted to introduce his newest client. If given the chance, fans would have loved to have seen Punk return and immediately take out his anger on his former manager, but it was not to be.

Punk still keeps up with WWE activity. When a Diva was recently fired, then rehired, he took to Twitter to voice his opinions about the situation. And if anyone can influence whether the superstar will return, it could very possibly be his new wife.
