10 Reasons CM Punk Could Return At 9/29 Chicago Raw

7. Punk Confronts Cena About Lesnar, Sets Up Hell In A Cell

Every so often, WWE trots out "Rowdy" Roddy Piper to give a downtrodden wrestler a pep talk, inspiring them to either make the right choice, or overcome some type of terrible odds. If Punk and WWE were to come to terms on a deal, Punk's best worth may actually not be as a wrestler, but in the "grizzled old veteran" role once held by Piper. Getting a stern talking to on "a very special Piper's Pit" really doesn't have the same feeling as Punk dropping the "pipe bomb" on a wrestler. Imagine Cena hitting the ring and Punk saying that he's not there to fight, but that if he were there to fight, that he's sure that he's still tough enough to beat John Cena. Punk questioning Cena's heart in the building where Punk and Cena had one of the current generation's most defining matches would be truly special.
