Backstage Update - CM Punk's Injury & Surgery

The WWE creative team has been told CM Punk is out of physical storylines for at least three months due to his hip issue. According to a source, Punk underwent an MRI last week and the results came back over the weekend. The injury/surgery doesn't necessarily mean he is gone from TV as WWE creative have also been told to come up with ideas for him in a non-wrestling role.

One source says that Punk may be having surgery within the next week or so. It is said that Punk could work through the injury, but that it will only get worse and WWE management wants him to get this taken care of. Right now Punk is not scheduled for TV this week, although that could change at the snap of a finger.
