@ak96ful1 I tend to disagree on that. Mainly because honestly we all thought CM Punk and the WWE would never work together again. Yes it was always rumoured and speculated but the way they parted terms was a particularly nasty spilt.
@@ak96ful1 WWE is the single biggest wrestling promotion on earth. His return to the company is way, way more impactful than anything he ever did in AEW.
@RuanAntunes7 Every wwe fan saw his Aew return. So incorrect. That was his return to wrestling so it was a much bigger deal. This is him coming back literally 2 and a half months after wrestling Samoa Joe at All in.
@adamturner749 Its a big deal for sure, however him coming to AEW was his return to wrestling which very few people thought he would do. Just check out that pop in United Center. It was louder and crazier with people crying.
@@TheGeekBoxexactly. Imagine if you will Crash Holly had called out Steve Austin on the Sunday night heat before Wrestlemania. Essentially what Jack Perry did. Which one do people think would have been fired? Your top star or the under sized mid carder? I will say to be fair to Crash Holly he was more over than Jack Perry will ever be but the point is the same. It’s like with Seth’s reaction do people think Seth would risk his job like that by going into business for himself? Seth is a company man.
@@adamlennard1828 yeah exactly this! I mean look at when there's been personal issues backstage etc in WWE, Management instantly shut it down and get them together or they can leave. Punk needs this run I think to enjoy his work again
Even in this day and age where spoilers rule the day and surprises are ruined, kudos to HHH and the rest for keeping this quiet. This was an honest to God shocking wrestling moment.
Surprises hardly happen anymore. I remember when Goldberg returned and they announced it, that really sucked. They usually announce so they get more PPV buys. This was perfect though as they got the Orton announcement in. Then just announcing Punk for the rumble will be enough.
I actually think Vince showed HHH that when it comes to "Business" all can be forgiven. Bret Hart spit in Vince's face and he still welcomed him back with open arms.
I assume he really wanted to scream so badly, but didn’t want to get a noise complaint from his neighbors. Nevertheless, I agree that it is strangely wholesome
I legit don’t think I’ve ever heard a more ear piercing crowd pop than this in my life. I can only imagine how deafening it was in just the arena itself, no matter what any hater or troll has to say, CM Punk is a needle mover hands down.
@@TheJordan276 I was over here watching from London almost 4am in shock and can just hear his name chante over the music. I can imagine it was rlly loud in Chi Town😂
I was there and it was LOUD. however I had faith the entire time, mostly because one parking lot attendant told us "there's a little surprise at the end" like ight thanks for that. it always makes me question the stories that punk and hhh say it was done 15 minutes before he walked out
I know that some don't like Punk, but for late 80s early 90s kids, this is special to us. His biggest run was during our mid-teens and earlier 20s. He was speaking outloud what we felt inside. He meant something to us on a personal level. This is the same reason we all freaked out when Steve returned on Blues Clues.
Even for someone who is expecting him to return, this still came as a shock. There's still that bit of sense "nah, its impossible". This is something that even just few months ago as an idea, people would think you're mad
Like I said in another comment there was talk/rumours about holding him off until the Rumble and obviously we all heard the rumours about him being the mystery partner before the Orton reveal but honestly? I think this was the best idea. There were people expecting the mystery partner thing and whether he re-signed or not, you'd bet when the Rumble came along there'd be people strongly suggesting that he'd be a mystery entrant. This though? Whether it was planning, luck, circumstance or anything else, even the most optimistic of us had pretty much given up hope by the end of the event and then that's where they hit us with that. It was so well done.
Thank you for putting this together, I just love to see the joy, shock and happiness from everyone. What a moment to be alive this is peak wrestling entertainment 👏👏👏
Fr , l was going to turn off my tv. But when Cm Punk theme hit the arena, l was speechless first with mouth wide open. Than l jumped and started singing his theme. My mom thought l was totally crazy. 😂
Honestly, I kinda found Cultaholics reaction the most amusing. They don't shout. They don't go "IT'S CM PUNK!!!" They look on in utter shock and you could interprete basically everything into it. "The Bloodline just appeared from under the Ring and Sami and Jey are rejoining them!" "Randy just punt'ed everyone!!!", "Brian Pillmann and Eddie Guerrero have just resurrected inside the ring!!!"
People can hate this man but those who love him far exceed the hate of the haters. This video...... it shows just a dose of the love and emotion that CM PUNK empowers to people! This was and will be a monumental moment that people forever talk about!
@@SayItAintDash not at all. I just don't think they carry the same emotional baggage as the IWC and all these wannabe-insider "Smart Marks" that desperately wish they could be journalists or a part of the business.
There was talk that the WWE thought about keeping Punk on ice until the Rumble and have him appear as a surprise entrant on that show but that they apparently scrapped that idea, because they reckoned that there's no way that they keep his signing a secret until late January. If true, I'd agree. If they'd only just signed him and they decided to hold him back until then, I'd give it to no more than the end of November, before the news breaks somehow.
I thought it was edge. I mean, he's a big name. But yeah, that is kind of weird cause you know Flair's way passes his prime.🤦 What's really pissing me off more as Tony hasn't done a s*** with black HOB That's not good enough for me that's the equivalent of judgment day. 😎 💯
@christopherloyd8938 Not only that, but when that Dark Side Of The Ring plane ride from hell episode dropped and Flair sexually assaulting the flight attendant TK said publicly that he would never do business with Flair. Now he's signed 🤣🤣🤣
Hell yeah, Randy was jacked bro that catch a finisher Rko off the cage was insane. 👍🏿But when punks Music hit the entire audience went nuts Cause the never thought he would come back. 😎 💯
This has to be one of the most shocking returns ever. Probably THE most shocking ever. I don’t remember the last time I was in that much awe while watching anything
@@coyi3884 Not really. We all thought he would ve making his way to TNA or NJPW, not WWE of all places. After all, Punk himself had declared he would never come back to WWE back in 2014.
@11:58 that guy had me rolling look like he had a WrestleGasm, I was excited also so hey lets all celebrate, CM Punk deserves to be in a legit promo, the world needs CM Punk its a great move
I’m just glad they kept Punk as a secret, it makes EVERYTHING better. Another reason why the attitude era was so great. Nothing getting leaked. Big names big pops almost every week. THIS is what wrestling is supposed to feel like
@@ArtCartersWrestlingLibrary Yeah, I just checked the lyrics earlier. Unfortunately, it doesn’t say on the song in UA-cam music, so I just used safari on my phone.
I was at work watching this and when Punks music hit I totally lost it. My co workers just looked at me as I was in shock and full of excitement 😂 best moment I've ever had at work lol
up there with the hardys at wrestlemania, edge at royal rumble, and john cena in money in the bank. It’s amazing that they pulled this off, makes me excited for Raw tomorrow.
@@ak96ful1 that was impactful too for sure. This has kind of elevated it imo, CM Punk in an organised, less rogue environment backstage and creatively, with bygones be bygones, HHH, bridges burnt, Rollins, Vince, Reigns etc. I’m twice as excited this time round.
Me too This would he or wouldn't he return was messing with my head to the point on the week leading to Sseries I had watched too many UA-cam videos on the subject and read too many news articles stating he is not coming back I made myself have a better reaction because I thought it wasn't going to happen Being from the UK I went to bed instead of staying awake to watch and every so often I kept logging on my phone to check what is happening I made a decision to put the network on my phone right at the moment Orton's music hit The rest is history
I heard the music and nearly screamed. I, a 20 year old man was screaming like a little girl when i heard his music go off. My girlfriend had to literally cover my mouth when i finally saw him walk through. I LOVE WWE WELCOME BACK PUNK
John Cena has the best Royal Rumble return, by far. The Hardy Boyz have the best Wrestlemania return, by far. Roman Reigns has the best Summerslam return, by far. Now CM Punk has the best Survivor Series return, by very very very far.
I thought I never tear up over a wrestlers return well it happened lol and I bet you there were some people chocked up in the arena and people are watching around the world great job Triple H you are the game 😊
I remember looking at the clock and I realized there were like 10 minutes left for 1 AM, so I kept watching and then I heard the static, I went CRAZY, I couldn't believe my eyes
Man when wrestling is good, its so damn good. How often do you see clips of this many people just experiencing a moment of sheer joy and shock. I love it
I don't wanna hear someone else saying the pop was so damn loud because it was in his hometown my reaction wan no different than these people and i live in Egypt, CM Punk is fkn global this was the reaction of every real wrestling fan around the world
I remember meeting Punk around 2000 i think. He had either just gotten into ROH kr was close, bit he did do indie work for IWA Mid South. He was always cool with people. You knew he would get to the E, but to be as big as he has become, its awesome.
Can anyone name any wrestler in the history of the profession that people have marked out this hard for? I can't think of any. Honestly, if even the Rock had shown up instead, I don't think it would have been this crazy.
I think for home crowd this definitely is a too 3 if not the biggest one as you've said. Think only thing that's up there I can think of was Edge returning at the rumble
John Cena did at one point & I would say The Rock & Stone Cold also got these kinds of reactions & LA Knight is well on his way. MJF doesn’t even get reactions like this
Hometown crowd and especially that hometown is always loud. Anywhere else would’ve been a good reaction, but not that. They brought him back at the right place I’ll give them that.
@@thomasanderson2384 we aren’t talking about hometown pops Sami Zayn doesn’t get these kinds of pops everywhere. CM Punk would have gotten this kind of reaction anywhere in the world…. You might be smoking something tbh
Not gonna me and my little bro lost hope the moment the graphic for the Wargames Press Conference showed up but the moment CM Punk's music hit we lost it. I was in utter shock and my brother was screaming his head off
I wish I could’ve recorded my own reaction, I was literally too shocked to even scream or yell or anything I just had my hands on my head in complete shock

Ok
He signed a contract for 5 years, so i'm assuming he got the brock Lesnar schedule due to his age. 💯😎

I was running around my house screaming like 6 years old boy 😂😂😂😂😂
Thata why we love it! 😁
Same minus the screaming 😂😂
The AEW return was like cool he’s back in pro wrestling but… Saturday night return felt like damn He came back HOME!!!!
Me too
This would he or wouldn't he return was messing with my head to the point on the week leading to Sseries I had watched too many UA-cam videos on the subject and read too many news articles stating he is not coming back
I made myself have a better reaction because I thought it wasn't going to happen
Being from the UK I went to bed instead of staying awake to watch and every so often I kept logging on my phone to check what is happening
I made a decision to put the network on my phone right at the moment Orton's music hit
The rest is history
I heard the music and nearly screamed. I, a 20 year old man was screaming like a little girl when i heard his music go off. My girlfriend had to literally cover my mouth when i finally saw him walk through. I LOVE WWE WELCOME BACK PUNK
Ross doing the best Tom scream I have ever heard, lol. Somewhere Jerry just smiled a big smile
18:23 I guess he fucking told them 😂😂😂
Triple H: "Business is boomin'!"
That's why he's Papa H! 😄
That has to be the biggest high a person can experience is having an arena of people go ballistic for you like that crowd did
John Cena has the best Royal Rumble return, by far. The Hardy Boyz have the best Wrestlemania return, by far. Roman Reigns has the best Summerslam return, by far. Now CM Punk has the best Survivor Series return, by very very very far.
Cm punk has the greatest RETURN by light years. Most viewed on all social media platforms.
Edge has best royal rumble
Its edge dawg
That compilation was dope (really freaking awesome) !!!!!!😁Really glad for a CM Punk WWE return.
Thank you! What an awesome compliment and yeah. I hope he has some fun this time with his run
the biggest return they can have now is Mox reunited with the Shield as much as I dislike Ambrose
20:08
Dog: wtf
The “INTHECLUTCH” had the best reaction. Seen it multiple times 😂
I can't be the only one shouting and crying in happiness AGAIN lol
I thought I never tear up over a wrestlers return well it happened lol and I bet you there were some people chocked up in the arena and people are watching around the world great job Triple H you are the game 😊
I remember looking at the clock and I realized there were like 10 minutes left for 1 AM, so I kept watching and then I heard the static, I went CRAZY, I couldn't believe my eyes
This just felt right on every level. Punk came home.
Man when wrestling is good, its so damn good. How often do you see clips of this many people just experiencing a moment of sheer joy and shock. I love it
It's crazy how his AEW debut was absolute magic and his WWE return was absolute magic. It's like we're living in two different universes.
Can't believe we witnessed this moment In this Lifetime 😭
this only proves CM PUNK has separate fanbase, hardcore fans.
I love how throughout the video everyone had 2 reactions,
Hearing the music
Then finally seeing him
My favourite wrestling compilation people! What a return for Punk!
Ooo yeah! Glad you enjoyed the video!
Ross almost breaking out the "Tom & Jerry" scream at the end there lol
I don't wanna hear someone else saying the pop was so damn loud because it was in his hometown my reaction wan no different than these people and i live in Egypt, CM Punk is fkn global this was the reaction of every real wrestling fan around the world
this return made grown men squeel, i love it!
18:22 I could be wrong, but I think the guy on the right of the screen fucking told y'all.
I remember meeting Punk around 2000 i think. He had either just gotten into ROH kr was close, bit he did do indie work for IWA Mid South. He was always cool with people. You knew he would get to the E, but to be as big as he has become, its awesome.
Can anyone name any wrestler in the history of the profession that people have marked out this hard for? I can't think of any. Honestly, if even the Rock had shown up instead, I don't think it would have been this crazy.
I think for home crowd this definitely is a too 3 if not the biggest one as you've said. Think only thing that's up there I can think of was Edge returning at the rumble
John Cena did at one point & I would say The Rock & Stone Cold also got these kinds of reactions & LA Knight is well on his way. MJF doesn’t even get reactions like this
Hometown crowd and especially that hometown is always loud. Anywhere else would’ve been a good reaction, but not that. They brought him back at the right place I’ll give them that.
Sami Zayn at his hometown got the same exact pop so idk what you're smoking
@@thomasanderson2384 we aren’t talking about hometown pops Sami Zayn doesn’t get these kinds of pops everywhere. CM Punk would have gotten this kind of reaction anywhere in the world…. You might be smoking something tbh
Seems like people are pumped enough. I thought show was over
Yeah, got cash in attempt, Orton return, Cody's pinfall then Punk, anyone with a heart issue just had their last PPV lol
Bro at 11:57 about made me pass out just from watching him not breathe 😂😂😂
I think he was shocked 😅
Thanks for all the comments and love!! Unbelievable how much you've blown this up!
Also sorry for the video typo lol
No one in the history of the business can get this type of a genuine reaction from the fans.
That dog was like, "wtf" 😂😂😂😂
Not gonna me and my little bro lost hope the moment the graphic for the Wargames Press Conference showed up but the moment CM Punk's music hit we lost it. I was in utter shock and my brother was screaming his head off
He basically shook the room you hear that roar of the crowds 😂😂😂😂😂😂
I wish I could’ve recorded my own reaction, I was literally too shocked to even scream or yell or anything I just had my hands on my head in complete shock
All he had to do was walk out there, too. He didn't even need to be involved in a match. Lol!
A compilation video of people reacting to Punks return has nearly 50k in views; Thats how awesome this return was
19:55 The dog looking back and forth between the guy and girl 😂😂
9 long years i literally cried.
22:13 this is meme material
