CM Punk is currently the hottest free agent in pro wrestling, after being fired by AEW in September.

Since his exit from AEW Punk has stayed quiet, giving fans no indication of where he'll be stepping in the ring next and that's if he decides to keep wrestling.

But during an appearance on the Bernstein & Holmes sports radio show in Chicago on Thursday (October 26) Punk was asked directly if he's going to be at WWE Survivor Series in his hometown on November 26.

When told fans were asking if he'd be at the event, Punk said (via Wrestling Observer) : "They're asking if I'm going to be there? I think it's sold out. I think tickets are hard to get."

Punk was then asked if it's possible that he'd be in action at Survivor Series. "I don't want to burst anybody's bubble," he answered.

"I'm kind of just sitting at home right now enjoying this beautiful Chicago weather. I have an injury in the family, my dog blew his little dog ACL.

"So I'm literally just spending my time with him. And I know that sounds a little crazy, but he is my son and I take care of him and treat him as such. So everything has kind of stopped.

"I'm fortunate to be able to just take time off from everything. I've canceled a couple of things I have coming up," he added. "Traveling is just, it's hard trying to leave him here with my wife April. So if there's two of us here taking care of him, it seems to be easier."

Punk did leave his home at the weekend however, when he attended Impact Wrestling's TV tapings in Chicago over the weekend.

Impact Wrestling has recently used Punk's best friend Ace Steel as a backstage producer and Punk previously attended a Chicago Impact event in April.
