10 Ways CM Punk Will Just Make WWE BETTER

Will we ever get to see CM Punk vs. 'Stone Cold' Steve Austin? Who knows. But the chance of this dream match happening has gone up immeasurably merely by the Chicago native returning to the WWE fold.

In his WrestleMania 38 bout against Kevin Owens, Austin showed that he can still lace up the boots to compete if under the right setting and in the right environment. And who would dare say that WWE would not be better should we at some point see Punk vs. Austin? Heck, the wrestling world, period, would be a better place if that contest somehow came together.

Of course, at 45 for Punk and 58 for Austin, neither man is exactly a spring chicken, so this clearly is something that would have to happen sooner rather than later should it happen at all. In terms of money matches, this is one that's undoubtedly right up there as one of the most mouth-watering propositions imaginable, and obviously WWE would be utterly insane to not push this together should there be even a small chance of making it possible.

Yes, we're over a decade removed, but who can forget the intensity and sheer electricity shown between CM Punk and Stone Cold on a June 2011 episode of Raw or that stunning WWE '13 promo video.
