While CM Punk has noted on WWE television in recent weeks that he would be done with the WWE come July 17th, 2011 at the WWE Money in the Bank pay-per-view, stating that he would take the WWE Championship to promotions such as New Japan Pro Wrestling and Ring of Honor, it seems as if Punk could be staying with the company, despite recent claims.
Speaking to several sources, while many people in the WWE office are under the assumption that Punk is done with the company following the WWE Money in the Bank pay-per-view, CM Punk met with WWE Chairman and CEO, Vince McMahon, prior to Monday’s WWE RAW tapings at the Thomas & Mack Center in Las Vegas, Nevada to discuss terms on a new contract with the company.
As part of the contract, Punk is looking for a break of time to be included in his contract, as he has been looking to allow his body to heal up in recent months.
With the WWE’s interest in Ring of Honor tag team, The Kings of Wrestling, Chris Hero and Claudio Castagnoli and an offer on the table for the tag team duo, it has made Punk’s views on his standpoint in the company seem on better standing, as Punk is great friends with Chris Hero ever since their days in IWA-Mid South and Ring of Honor, while Punk also considers Claudio Castagnoli a good friend of his.
Punk has also asked for the WWE to get in touch with Colt Cabana about a potential return to the company, where he would be guaranteed with a spot on the main roster. Cabana previously wrestled in the WWE for a brief period, under the name of Scotty Goldman. As you are well aware, Cabana and Punk are best friends from their days on the independent scene and are always seen at events together if both companies are in town, with Punk at times phoning in unannounced to Colt Cabana’s Art of Wrestling podcast.
Meanwhile, while many were in awe that CM Punk mentioned former WWE Champion and current UFC (Ultimate Fighting Championship) star, Brock Lesnar, as well as former ECW promoter, Paul Heyman, it may seem as if Punk may have been let in on WWE’s plans.
According to a report from F4WOnline, WWE are in negotiations with both Heyman and Lesnar, regarding what has been described as a “business relationship” and a non-televised role. It has been noted in recent years, ever since his departure from the company, that the WWE had been looking to work on a DVD of Brock Lesnar’s brief WWE career, however it is unknown as to what Heyman’s potential role would be, as he is believed to have been in discussion with Spike TV officials regarding their potential majority buyout of TNA Wrestling.
All in all, it promises to be an interesting few weeks to see where things go following the July 17th Money in the Bank pay-per-view, as Punk has got the whole wrestling world talking.

Hopefully The WWE brings in Cabana and gives him a push on Raw they can bring him in as a manager for Punk then have him be a top heel on Raw, As for the Kings of Wrestling put them on SD!.
For the record if there is gonna be a Indy Faction have it be Punk, Cabana, Hero, Castagnoli, Bryan, Bourne , Black and Kaval and have them invade Raw and SD
And Kaval (Low-ki) is back in Tna
