As we previously reported, CM Punk may feud with Brock Lesnar upon his return and transition back to babyface. With Lesnar attacking Punk on Monday Night Raw, these rumors have been confirmed and PWInsider.com is saying that you can count on CM Punk vs Brock Lesnar happening at SummerSlam in August.
WWE teased the SummerSlam encounter on their Twitter page as soon as Lesnar attacked Punk, hashtagging “Brock Lesnar,” “Here Comes The Pain,” and “SummerSlam.” Punk returned from his hiatus as a babyface, and then further solidified the turn by distancing himself away from Paul Heyman Monday night on RAW. Just after Punk defeated World Heavyweight Champion Alberto Del Rio via count out, Lesnar returned to RAW and laid out Punk with an F5. It is unsure as to what Punk and Lesnar will do at July’s Money In The Bank, but the feeling backstage is that they will wait until August to have them finally face off with each other one-on-one.
