With a tease as tangible as the photo taken in front of the WWE Title monument, fans are left wondering about the possibilities.
“Missed my flight today. Woke up in Bridgeport. Anything to do here?” Punk mused on his social media, prompting an immediate response from NXT’s head honcho, Shawn Michaels. The Heartbreak Kid extended an open invitation, suggesting they skip the usual phone call and have a face-to-face meeting at the Deadline show. This public exchange has only fueled expectations and theories, making tonight’s NXT event an even hotter ticket.
Speaking of returns, Cora Jade’s absence has been palpable within the NXT brand’s women’s division.
