Another key moment in Punk's career that happened in his hometown was his return to wrestling. On August 20, 2021, Punk returned to wrestling after initially retiring, debuting on a special episode of AEW Dynamite . It emanated from the United Center in Chicago.
On November 25, 2023, Punk returned to WWE at Survivor Series: WarGames . It took place at Allstate Arena, and Punk shocked the world by coming back to the company he had left nearly a decade earlier.
Currently, Punk is entrenched in a feud with Seth Rollins. They recently fought in a fatal four-way for the World Heavyweight Championship at Clash in Paris that also included LA Knight and Jey Uso.
Punk looked like he was going to secure the win. However, Rollins's wife, Becky Lynch, got involved, costing Punk the match. Now, it looks like Lee could return to even the odds.

He has been feuding with Rollins for years. They had their first singles match during the Monday Night RAW on Netflix premiere on January 6, 2025. Punk won, but Rollins would come out on top in their next encounters. Rollins leads the Vision faction, which features Paul Heyman, Bronson Reed, and Bron Breakker.
