CM Punk's Impact on WWE WrestleMania Plans

CM Punk's recent injury at the "Royal Rumble" will force him to miss "WrestleMania," prompting Booker T to speculate that Punk's eight-year hiatus from wrestling may have taken a toll on his body. Booker expressed concern about Punk's extended absence and suggested that the veteran might have waited too long to return to wrestling, emphasizing that the body doesn't heal or regenerate muscle as fast as it ages. He also highlighted the potential impact of missing another four to six months of action and lamented the missed opportunity for Punk to have a "Cinderella story" main event at WrestleMania.
