On the upcoming episode of Monday Night RAW, CM Punk will make his much-anticipated return. The Best in the World is engaged in a heated rivalry with Drew McIntyre. However, as we approach SummerSlam 2024, one question arises: will Punk announce that he is medically cleared to compete at The Biggest Party of the Summer on tonight's show?

Drew McIntyre vs. CM Punk is heavily rumored to take place at SummerSlam this year. However, Punk may not reveal his medical status on tonight's RAW. Recent reports have indicated that The Best in the World will likely be ready to compete inside the squared circle by next week. Hence, he may announce that he is medically cleared for in-ring competition on next week's edition of the red show.

Nevertheless, tonight's episode of WWE RAW will feature noteworthy moments before SummerSlam. WWE undoubtedly has big plans for CM Punk, as we are less than two weeks away from the grand premium live event.

For those unaware, SummerSlam 2024 is set to emanate live from Cleveland Browns Stadium in Cleveland, Ohio, on Saturday, August 3, 2024.


CM Punk may engage in a heated segment with a former world champion on RAW

As Drew McIntyre remains suspended from Monday Night RAW, CM Punk may find himself in another heated segment with former WWE Champion Seth Rollins. The Visionary confronted Punk following Money in the Bank 2024, where he issued a warning to him. Moreover, Rollins rescued Adam Pearce last week from an angry McIntyre.

A recent report disclosed that Seth Rollins is expected to be the special guest referee for CM Punk vs. Drew McIntyre at SummerSlam. With The Scottish Warrior suspended, tonight's show could lay the groundwork for Rollins being the match official at The Biggest Party of the Summer.

Seth Rollins' involvement in the heated feud might force Adam Pearce to book him as the special guest referee for CM Punk vs. Drew McIntyre. Given the animosity between The Scottish Warrior and The Best in the World, having Rollins in this role could be the best way to ensure a fair contest.

While McIntyre is suspended, he could still appear on the Monday night program, leading to a chaotic segment involving all three stars. It remains to be seen how things will unfold on tonight's edition of the red show, which will be held at Resch Center in Green Bay, WI.
