10 Ways WWE Can Still Salvage 2019

4. CM Punk On WWE Backstage

You want to get eyes back on your product? Is there any other free agent on the planet that could bring you more publicity than The Cult of Personality himself, CM Punk?

The answer is probably not, as for his entire tenure post-WWE, Punk has been bombarded with questions about if and when he would be returning to wrestling.

It's obvious that fans are desperate for him to appear in any capacity under a wrestling banner again and AEW have already sounded the man out for a position in their new promotion.

If WWE were to steal a march on their rivals and sign Punk up - even as a rumoured WWE Backstage pundit - fans would rally behind McMahon's company, if only to see Chick Magnet Phil let rip on the weak programming we have been subjected to over the last year.

It could even entice Punk to lace up his boots again and consider stepping back into the ring.

Baby steps, of course, but getting him under contract (under FOX at least) would be a start.
