As seen on Sky Bet, the betting odds have been released for CM Punk potentially winning the 2020 Royal Rumble in January.

Punk’s return to WWE Backstage has caused a great deal of excitement, as you can imagine, with fans all around the world just waiting to see whether or not he takes that next step and decides to get back inside the ring to compete.

Regardless of whether or not it actually happens there’s a very good chance fans aren’t going to stop speculating about it one way or the other – ensuring that fantasy booking scenarios will continue to be thrown out there for months and potentially even years to come.

In terms of the odds, CM Punk is astonishingly placed as the second favourite to win the 2020 Royal Rumble. He has odds of 9/2 at this moment in time with only Roman Reigns ahead of him, with the top five being rounded off by Bray Wyatt, Finn Balor and Kevin Owens.

It certainly seems as if the bookmakers are getting a little bit too ahead of themselves which is understandable, as many fans simply could not contain their excitement when Punk’s return to WWE on Backstage came to fruition.

It’s a bit of a weird one because we all know he isn’t actually back as an active member of the WWE family, and he’s instead just being employed by FOX. Even with that being the case, though, he does seem to be entertaining the idea of maybe getting back in there.
