CM Punk Says He’s Had Discussions With Wrigley Field Executives About Holding A WWE Event At The Stadium

CM Punk still wants to bring WWE to Wrigley Field.

WWE has run a number of baseball stadiums over the years, recently holding Survivor Series at Petco Park, home of the San Diego Padres.

Appearing on Rock 95.5, Punk was asked about bringing WWE to Wrigley Field in Chicago.

“Oh yes. I’ve had discussions with some executives, I’ll say. Yeah, they 100% want it. The hard thing for us is the scheduling and getting in. We need load in and load out day. Believe it or not, it’s probably a lot easier for Wrigley to book Green Day because they don’t have the man hours for load in. They are doing a stage, some sound, and that’s technically it. You need a little more time to roll our trucks in there and set things up because our production is that much more than a rock concert. We’ve been in discussions with it, it’s just going to make it so much easier to get it done if there is no baseball,” he said.

The United Center in Chicago will host WWE Elimination Chamber on Saturday. CM Punk will defend his WWE World Heavyweight Title against Finn Balor on the show.
