Top five possible opponents for CM Punk at WWE SummerSlam 2025

CM Punk could have a marquee match at SummerSlam this year

WWE SummerSlam 2025 will be a history-making show in its own right. For the first time in over three decades, the event will follow a two-night format on August 2nd and 3rd at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey, and it is expected to be a blockbuster.

One of the top stars advertised for the show is none other than CM Punk. ‘The Best in the World’ is a marquee attraction and could face someone of the same caliber. Here are five possible matches for Punk at WWE SummerSlam 2025:

5. Dominik Mysterio

Dominik Mysterio was tormented by CM Punk during his childhood days in WWE. The former WWE Champion even faced him in a singles match at a house show.

Fast-forward two years, and Mysterio has the prestigious Intercontinental title in his hands. His troubled past and aspiration for championship gold can lead to a match against Dirty Dom at WWE SummerSlam 2025.

4. AJ Styles

CM Punk has faced some of the most illustrious names in the wrestling business. However, he and AJ Styles are yet to step in the ring against each other.

A possible scenario could see Styles winning the IC title from Dominik Mysterio, with whom he is currently feuding. This could set up a first-ever showdown with The Best in the World at SummerSlam for the workhorse championship.

3. Roman Reigns

Roman Reigns and Punk were a part of a heated feud heading into WrestleMania 41. Due to Punk slithering away Reigns’ Wiseman, Paul Heyman, who was in his corner for the match, led to their alliance’s end.

Reigns might not have forgotten about that and returned to go after Punk. This could lead to a major singles match between Punk and Reigns for the Biggest Party of the Summer.

2. Gunther

Gunther and CM Punk had a brief interaction on the recent episode of Monday Night RAW. The Best in the World has had eyes on the World Heavyweight title for a while, currently held by The Ring General. This might have planted the seeds for a huge title match at SummerSlam between the duo.

John Cena and Cody Rhodes are set to collide at SummerSlam in a rematch from WrestleMania 41 for the Undisputed WWE Championship. However, the fans had negative reviews for the bout, and the case could be the same as the road to SummerSlam would unfold.

This could see WWE throw a major curveball by adding CM Punk to the mix and turning the main event into a triple-threat showdown.
