Hey, remember that CM Punk involvement during the intro to this piece? It's back with a vengeance, but maybe not in the way you think. Now, nobody's suggesting that Punk is about to leap back onto WWE TV - he's still technically tied to AEW amidst ongoing drama over there.

However, the spirit of Punk can shine on through 'Mania season via one Sami Zayn. In the future, his pending Elimination Chamber challenge to Roman Reigns could be viewed with the same misty-eyed fondness that Punk vs. John Cena back at Money In The Bank 2011 was/is.

In short, EC 2023 is WWE's next MITB 2011.

The Montreal live crowd will be fired up for Zayn, and that old magic atmosphere will drench the air inside the city's Bell Centre. 'If Sami Loses, We Riot' signs will be everywhere, which will only heap yet more heat on Roman for crushing fan dreams.

This, whether Zayn pulls off the biggest upset of modern times or not, is gonna be historic.
