UFC fighter Phil Brooks a.k.a CM Punk doesn't even know who and when he fights next inside the octagon, but one thing is for sure, sports fans honestly don't want to see the former WWE superstar fight in the UFC anymore.

Everyone wants the veteran to return to his pro wrestling roots.

Much has been written about his possible return to the WWE at some point in time, but the likes of Vince McMahon and Triple H are not really keen on having him back, thanks to their strained relationship.

However, a relatively unknown British pro wrestling promotion '5 Star Wrestling' is going the extra mile to bring Punk back to the world of ring ropes. So much so that they are even ready to shell out $1m for a one-off pro wrestling match, featuring Punk, who has worked earlier in the Indy stage with Ring of Honor and other promotions.

Former WWE superstar Joe Morrison is also part of the event. 

Daniel Hinkles, the chief of '5 star wrestling' wants Punk, 38, in the first-ever 128-man wrestling tournament, scheduled to start on June 10 at the Liverpool's Echo Arena.

"We've been trying to contact CM Punk on and off for well over a year. We wanted him on the first show we did in Edinburgh in 2015," the Sun quoted Hinkles as saying. "I've tried going through friends in the industry, I've gone through his website and sent dozens of emails but the opportunity has never been this big.

"We want to offer CM Punk $1 million dollars (£770,000) to come and join the 5 Star Wrestling tour starting June 10th. It's a genuine offer. We'd love to hear back from the man himself. We want to do this with him.

"We are hugely ambitious. When we ask the fans who they want to see, CM Punk's name is on everybody's wish list and we're willing to spend big to make it happen. I know he is seemingly focused on MMA at the moment and this wouldn't have to end that, but wrestling is in his blood and $1 million has to be worth thinking about."
