Seth Rollins has made clear he isn't a fan of CM Punk, but people change and time can heal all wounds.

CM Punk returned to WWE at Survivor Series in Chicago and an angle was worked where Rollins and Drew McIntyre in particular were "irate" at Punk showing up. All that certainly makes sense in today's WrestleMania 40 landscape considering that the reported plan was for CM Punk to face Rollins, but Punk's triceps injury clearly tabled that and Drew McIntyre has seamlessly fit into the role of a true "raw" antagonist who will challenge Rollins in Philadelphia.

Punk made his return to the All State Arena in Chi-town this past Monday on RAW and eventually found himself in the crosshairs of Rollins and McIntyre. Rollins happened to take on a heelish persona as he ran down Punk, making note that he doesn't even think about him and told him flat-out that would find it appropriate if Punk was on commentary to announce that he retained his World Heavyweight Championship against Drew.

The Reported Dynamic Between CM Punk & Seth Rollins Backstage

Last year, way before CM Punk came back to WWE, Rollins unbashedly called CM Punk a "cancer" when asked of his thoughts regarding 'The Best In The World,' making it quite clear he wasn't exactly fond of Punk.

To substantiate that, earlier this week, Wade Keller of the Pro Wrestling Torch wrote "by all accounts" there was no love loss between Punk and Rollins, but then reports how that dynamic has changed since Punk has been back in the fold.

"While Seth harbored legitimate gripes with Punk, the two are getting along backstage when planning their segments. Punk continues to get all positive reviews from many sources regarding how he is carrying himself amongst colleagues and management."

CM Punk will indeed be guest commentator during the WrestleMania match between Seth Rollins and Drew McIntyre.
