UFC fighter and former WWE superstar CM Punk has revealed that there is nothing that interests him in wrestling after being asked about a potential return. Punk, who walked out of WWE the day after the 2014 Royal Rumble, has been consistently linked with some kind of wrestling comeback ever since leaving – despite starting a career in mixed martial arts. Since making his debut inside of the octagon, he’s accumulated a 0-2 record courtesy of losses to Mickey Gall and Mike Jackson.
Punk’s segment, from Ariel Helwani’s MMA Show, begins around 110 minutes into the broadcast.
