Nick Hausman: “Punk is getting paid major money and will be a major focus on WWE TV”

Per Nick Hausman, who is very close to the Punk camp:
>He’s getting paid a lot of money, I can’t say how much but it’s a lot. AEW did not fulfill his whole contract but this more than makes up for it according to Punk. And with the huge amount of money comes the expectation of doing huge numbers. RAW was up massively. Social media metrics are up massively. They can’t keep his shirt in stock. He’s doing his end of the deal. WWE, on their end, should be putting him into some huge angles to ride this momentum.”
>”Punk has spoken to his friends and said that he wants to main event Wrestlemania, that’s still the dream. But he’s a lot wiser now, a lot smarter. He knows how to achieve that goal, he knows what the sponsors and executives like to see. There are people in WWE who want him to fail, he’s already figured them out, he knows how to handle them. The Elite wanted him to fail in AEW, Tony Khan wanted him to fail, even MJF wanted him to fail. And those people have friends in WWE, let’s not kid ourselves, and they have that same irrational hatred.”
