Huge title change; stunning return; CM Punk invited to affix The Vision? (12/29/2025)

Paul Heyman and The Vision kicked off the final WWE RAW of 2025, and Heyman said that CM Punk would be there with them if he had listened to The Oracle. Austin Theory was officially a member of The Vision, and just as he was about to speak, CM Punk made his entrance.

Punk talked about Theory drinking the Kool-Aid before saying that he was there for Bron Breakker. Punk called Bron stupid and mentioned that if he attacks the champ tonight, there won’t be a title match next week. Bron told the rest of the group to empty the ring so they could talk face-to-face and added that Punk was the only one who was scared.

Breakker went on to talk about being the future of the industry and then added that he knows both he and Punk are ready to die for the title. Punk said that sooner or later someone was going to beat him for the World Heavyweight Title, but it won’t be Bron.
