WWE and UFC are under the same TKO banner, which is why stars from both companies keep tabs on each other from time to time. That’s precisely why it’s no surprise that CM Punk was spotted in attendance at UFC 311 this week.
The UFC 311 event took place at the Intuit Dome in Inglewood, California on December 18th and it was headlined by Islam Makachev and Renato Moicano’s right. There were all sorts of top names in attendance for the show and that included CM Punk, who was clearly happy to be there. Once cameras spotted him in attendance at the show, Punk did his signature “Go 2 Sleep” gesture for fans.
TKO’s official Twitter account also took to the social media platform and uploaded a video of CM Punk, Cathy Kelley and UFC star Bellal Muhammad backstage at UFC 311. Punk was excited to be with his friend Muhammad as Punk made it clear he was looking forward to all the fights at the event.
As for CM Punk’s current plans in WWE, he declared himself for The Royal Rumble match and fans are excited to see whether he can end up winning it this time around, as he failed to win last year’s Rumble. Nonetheless, his friend Bellal Muhammad will definitely support him no matter what and Punk wouldn’t have it any other way.
