The December 17 episode of WWE NXT already has fans talking, but it’s CM Punk who’s stealing the spotlight. Ahead of tonight’s show at the Lowell Memorial Auditorium in Massachusetts, Punk was reportedly backstage, casually hanging out during rehearsals, according to Fightful Select.
The venue itself is creating its own vibe with a “ballroom-style” setup that fans are calling “nostalgic” and “intimate.” Social media posts from attendees show an upper deck overlooking the main floor, giving off classic fight-night energy. “Feels like I’m at an old-school fight night,” one fan tweeted alongside photos of the setup.
With CM Punk lurking backstage and a loaded card set for tonight, WWE NXT is bringing a whole new vibe that fans won’t want to miss. Whether it’s the intimate venue setup or Punk’s unexpected appearance, this could be a night that leaves everyone talking long after the final bell.
