Nah. Punk and wrestling are a bad marriage.

He may not get away with some of his nonsense in WWE and he's still entertaining. But generally no, I think he would be best to leave wrestling behind.
On a side note, who's most likely to slip "do we have a problem here?" into a promo as a shot at him?

Only if he’s booked solely against Brock. lol
Realistically he’s be constantly buried on the mic though because there’s tons of guys that have way more leeway than he would ever have if he returned. He would know this and have no interest in having Seth, Cody, Roman, etc. shredding him every week

He's forced to return during a segment of Miz TV and proceeds to lose his shit the moment he sees Miz.

I imagined Seth no selling one of Punk's pipebombs by laughing and dancing.

Yes, but almost entirely for the wrong reasons. Exactly; I think it would be extremely interesting for all the wrong reasons. Would definitely love to see how it turns out, though.

There’s really no upside for WWE. They are already in a financial boom so they don’t need him for that, and what could they possibly do with him that would be worth the potential headache? AEW wasn’t even 2 years old when Punk got there so bringing him into AEW in 2021 made sense. That was a risk worth taking, and even AEW now after that London show proved they don’t need Punk either.

F*** no. Cody made it very, very clear he hates Punk for sitting idly by for a decade and taking credit for the "anti-monopoly sentiment" that Cody actually worked to enact in his last AEW promo, and I am certain that he doesn't like him any more these days.
Punk might be the single most toxic backstage presence in wrestling history right now, and that's with him having his own show with creative control. It'll be an unmitigated disaster if he has to go back to just being another cog in the WWE machine.

Now that I think about it... This might be what Punk needs. Get that mania main event (there are 2 nights now) and it's like that weight being lifted off his shoulders and he can finally move on...

I want Punk back in WWE…just for the fun of seeing him get his comeuppance if he tried to do what he did in AEW. Unlike in AEW, he would fail miserably. He would get shown the door in short order.
Real shame that despite how much nicer Tony is compared to Vince, he also apparently can’t discipline his stars and he let them walk all over him.

I'd just want to see who in WWE would be his Danhausen. Why do I feel like Ricochet would be the type?

For the sake of my own personal amusement and sense of chaos, yes.
For the sake of the WWE locker room, f*** no.
