For some reason, we have heard from a number of readers overnight asking about whether rumors that CM Punk was slated to wrestle Seth Rollins at Wrestlemania 36 at some point were true.
No, they were not.
PWInsider.com, in checking today, was told there was zero communication between WWE management and CM Punk regarding such a match or even Punk appearing at Wrestlemania in any form. Nothing was offered. Nothing was turned down. The conversations never took place.
While Seth Rollins pushed for the match publicly online (and I believe may have even reached out to Punk privately about the idea), there has been no contact between Punk and WWE, according to multiple WWE sources.
Internally, there has been no talk of using Punk, not even after his WWE Backstage debut. In recent months, WWE has not even promoted Punk's appearances on WWE Backstage.
Punk is signed to a FOX deal and does not work for WWE. He recently completed work on his third horror film. His first leading film role, Girl on The Third Floor, is now streaming on Netflix.
