Former WWE and current AEW star CM Punk was backstage for a bit at tonight's Monday Night Raw taping, PWInsider.com has confirmed.

Tonight's taping is being held in his hometown of Chicago (well, Rosemont, IL, right outside) at the Allstate Center, the same venue where Punk defeated John Cena for the WWE title at the 2011 Money in the Bank PPV.

There's no word who Punk was there visiting, but we have heard from several WWE sources that he did briefly see Paul Levesque, which would have been the first time the two have met in person since the day Punk walked out of the company back in 2014.

Punk also met with several other WWE talents, but was eventually asked to exit the arena.

One WWE source believed it may have been since he was under contract to another company. We are told by the same source that it was a Vince McMahon call that he leave the venue and that when he was asked, Punk immediately said his goodbyes and left the building.

That would open them up big time to a lawsuit from AEW if there was any business talk. Contract tampering with AEW’s biggest star, what the hell are they thinking lol

Didn't stop Hunter a few months ago calling a few people who recently left before Vince had to take a vacation.

[Zealot]

Vince apparently making last-minute changes to Raw remotely today, goodbye HHH era, we hardly knew ye.

[NynJa]

Haitch burying Roman lmao

[Anoat]

So they put the WWE logo on the Big Gold Belt. Well. It’s better than the Universal title at least I’ll give them that.

[Zealot]

That's a great looking belt, just the BGB with the WWE logo in the middle but it super works.

[Anoat]

Man, if Cody wins that after failing to beat Roman it’s gonna be such a letdown. He needs to beat Roman.

[Kaslo]

Sure sounded like HHH was describing Cody when talking about the type of champion to carry the belt.

[NotGreyheim]

I swear to god if they desecrated the corpse of Big Gold like that just to create ANOTHER title specifically for Cody to win... HE CAN'T KEEP GETTING AWAY WITH IT.

[NotGreyheim]

Never in my wildest imagination did I think that a championship belt could have butterface.

[Anoat]

If I had to guess

Roman will beat whoever at Night of Champions to get his 1k+ title reign. Perhaps let’s say, Drew McIntyre.

Big Gold Belt will be Seth vs Cody, Seth will win after McIntyre turns heel and attacks Cody

Cody and Drew feud for a month or so, Cody wins the blowoff

Cody wins MITB in July, uses the briefcase to challenge Roman at SummerSlam and Roman finally loses to Cody

[Zealot]

So are the King and Queen of the Ring tournaments just not happening?

[Anoat]

Bad Bunny in a street fight against Damian Priest at Backlash. That crowd is gonna be HOT.

[Anoat]

Braun Strowman got concussed in the match last Friday which probably explains why he was more clumsy than usual

[Krandor]

I wonder if got it before he yeeted Ricochet or if the concussion was him smacking his head on the turnbuckle right after
