CM PUNK SAYS HE IS RETIRED...WWE ADVERTISING HIM FOR SMACKDOWN APPEARANCE !

CM Punk was interviewed today by Red Eye Chicago, discussing taking part of an art project commemorating Wrigley Field's 100th anniversary. 50 custom painted pairs of ballpark showing a famous moment from the Ballpark's history will be placed on Michigan Avenue in Chicaqo. Punk has painted a chair showing Kerry Wood's 20 strikeout game from 1998. The article stated that Punk was retired from WWE at the age of 35. Punk noted that doing charity work "felt good" and left the door open to do more based on the level of celebrity his career has given him. Thanks to Billy Krotchsen.

As irony has it however, (and I expect this will quickly be changed), WWE currently has CM Punk and AJ Lee listed on the WWE website as talents appearing on the 7/24 Smackdown taping in Corpus Christi, Texas. Thanks to everyone who sent that along this morning.
