Jericho asked about a CM Punk return

Chris Jericho was asked during an appearance on the You’re Welcome! With Chael Sonnen podcast if he thinks CM Punk would ever return to the company.

Jericho made the following remarks:

It would be a big deal for him to come back to WWE, but I don’t know if he would ever. I mean, never say never. Dusty Rhodes came back. Bret Hart came back. I’m sure, at some point, he’ll come through.

He also talked about what the future may hold for the former WWE Superstar:

I think, if I put myself in his position, and there’s a lot of brouhaha about him being involved in MMA, and I think the fact that he lost so quickly, that put some egg on his face. And I think he’s going to want to try again just to show people he’s not going down like that, so I think he probably will fight again, whether it’s the UFC or whatever it is. And he’ll probably fight again and again until he wins.

And then, when he wins, maybe he’ll start learning from that and win some more. I never expected him to be a one-and-done type of guy. What I actually thought was going to happen was he’ll have a couple of UFC fights, win, lose, or draw, and after go into commentating or interviewing because then, he could come at it from the standpoint of he knows what it’s like to be inside of that Octagon.
