If you were expecting CM Punk to show up at tonights WWE Raw in Brussels, youre out of luck.

PWInsider confirmed that Punk is not present at the event, meaning he wont be making a surprise appearance.

This comes as a major change, considering WWE had initially advertised Punk for several European tour dates, including upcoming Raw episodes in Glasgow on March 24 and London on March 31. However, WWE quietly removed him from promotional materials, deleted an official announcement tweet, and even adjusted their WWE UK Instagram post, no longer listing him for those shows. Instead, Punk is now confirmed for:

  • Raw in Brussels, Belgium March 17 (which hes now missing)
  • SmackDown in Bologna, Italy March 21
  • SmackDown in London, UK March 28

Despite being a major player leading into WrestleMania 41, WWE is carefully selecting when and where to use Punk, especially with his ongoing feud against Drew McIntyre. While hell still appear on SmackDown this month, his Raw absence raises questions about how WWE is handling his storyline.

Even without Punk, WWE has a stacked lineup for tonights show, airing live from Forest National in Brussels at 3 PM ET on Netflix.

  • John Cena returns after his shocking heel turn.
  • Intercontinental Championship: Bron Breakker (c) vs. Finn Balor.
  • No Holds Barred Match: Penta vs. Ludwig Kaiser.
  • Jey Uso vs. Austin Theory.
  • IYO SKY and Bianca Belair contract signing.
  • Seth Rollins first Raw since Roman Reigns attack.

With Cenas return as a full-fledged villain, this show still promises major moments. However, Punks absence is sure to leave some fans disappointed.

Was this a last-minute creative decision? Is WWE saving him for a bigger moment? Drop your thoughts below and let us know what you think!
