Boston, 24 November - As WWE's Survivor Series: WarGames approaches, many fans are eagerly waiting to see if CM Punk will make an appearance. However, despite the event taking place in his hometown of Chicago, Illinois, there is no evidence to suggest that the former WWE Champion will be at the show on Saturday. While some speculate that this could just be a well-kept secret, those close to the situation have categorically denied that Punk will be there.## Although anything is possible in the wrestling world, it is certain that Randy Orton will be returning at the upcoming Pay-Per-View. WWE announced Orton's return ahead of time to avoid fans expecting Punk to be the fifth man for the WarGames team. Had nobody been announced, chants for the former AEW star could have broken out.## While there may be some negativity towards Punk within WWE, it is not completely out of the question that he could return. WWE is not opposed to bringing him back if it is a situation they have to do based on fan responses. Given that WWE's current creative team isn't looking to be combative with the audience, if the crowd makes it clear they want to see Punk, there is a chance it could happen.## In recent weeks, speculation about Punk and WWE has been rampant due to certain references made on television and teases on Punk's social media. Many fans have been wondering about Shinsuke Nakamura's mysterious callouts, with some believing they were possibly opening the door to be answered by Punk. However, it remains to be seen whether Punk will make an appearance at the upcoming Pay-Per-View. ## Stay Tuned To Sacnilk...

WWE is gearing up for the upcoming edition of WWE Friday Night SmackDown on November 24, 2023, set to take place live at the Allstate Arena in Chicago, IL. ## On November 25, the go-home episode for Survivor Series will air. Currently, there are only two segments scheduled. The first segment will feature Kevin Owens as a special guest on The Grayson Waller Effect.## The second segment will be an Undisputed WWE Tag Team Title Match between The Judgment Day and The Street Profits. It's worth noting that this week, the show will air on FS1 instead of Fox, which is its usual network. ## #1. The Judgment Day To Defeat The Street Profits ## The Judgment Day will defend their Undisputed WWE Tag Team Championship against The Street Profits. The Street Profits earned their title shot by defeating The Brawling Brutes and Pretty Deady in a Triple Threat Match. In my opinion, The Judgment Day is unlikely to lose its title against The Street Profits. Therefore, I predict that Judgment Day will win the match. #2. Kevin Owens To Attack Grayson Waller Austin Theory ## On tonight's show, The Grayson Waller Effect will feature a special guest appearance by Kevin Owens. It promises to be an intriguing segment as we rarely see Kevin Owens leave empty-handed. It's highly likely that Owens will put him in his place if Waller starts trash-talking about him. Another possibility is that Owens will confront another man, specifically Austin Theory. ## #3. Bianca Belair vs. Kairi Sane In A WarGames Advantage Match ## Last week on SmackDown, Damage CTRL issued a WarGames challenge for Charlotte Flair, Bianca Belair and Shotzi to find a partner to face Bayley, IYO SKY, Kairi Sane and Asuka in a WarGames Match before getting the better of their adversaries in a fierce brawl. ## #4. Solo Sikoa vs. LA Knight ## LA Knight made his intentions clear last week on SmackDown, when he interrupted Paul Heyman's boasting about Solo Sikoa's victory over John Cena. Knight declared that he would eliminate The Bloodline. In his first challenge against the group, he defeated Jimmy Uso with the BFT on the same night.## In his quest to destroy The Bloodline, LA Knight faced an attack from Jimmy Uso and Solo Sikoa following his match. Fortunately, The American Nightmare came to his aid and helped him overcome the attack. ## #5. Dragon Lee To Be In Action ## Dragon Lee has been active since his main roster debut. Last week, he continued his winning streak by defeating Axiom from NXT. ## Stay Tuned To Sacnilk
