If I had to guess, I would imagine this is Punk's way of slowly moving back in. He made a big deal of his exit and seems really concerned with maintaining his rep as a "rebel" of some sort, so I imagine he'll let them make the first move. He is definitely a talented guy and I would be lying if I said I didn't want to see him again. I think he wants that one last run and for it to be a big deal. Nothing wrong with that.
