CM Punk is scheduled to appear on two WWE Raw episodes in January.

In a post made to his Instagram stories on Friday, Punk shared his upcoming WWE schedule. It includes the January 8 and January 22 episodes of Raw. The January 8 show is being held in Portland, Oregon. The latter episode is taking place in New Orleans and is Raw’s go-home show for the Royal Rumble.

Here are all of the dates Punk has been announced for:

Tuesday, December 26: WWE Holiday Tour house show at Madison Square Garden in New York, New York
Saturday, December 30: WWE Holiday Tour house show at the Kia Forum in Inglewood, California
Monday, January 8: WWE Raw at the Moda Center in Portland, Oregon
Monday, January 22: WWE Raw at the Smoothie King Center in New Orleans, Louisiana
Saturday, January 27: WWE Royal Rumble at Tropicana Field in St. Petersburg, Florida

Punk is facing Dominik Mysterio at both of the Holiday Tour live events.

Punk and Cody Rhodes are the first two entrants to declare for the 2024 men’s Royal Rumble match.

WWE appears to be building toward a WrestleMania match between Punk and World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins. That has been the direction since Punk returned to WWE at Survivor Series. The two had their first face-to-face confrontation on Raw earlier this month.
