Well, The Straight Edge Superstar has shared a picture which shows the original WrestleMania 30 match card. According to the picture, he was scheduled to face The Cerebral Assassin in the WWE's leading pay-per-view event at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome in New Orleans, LA. According to him, he came across the paper when he was spring cleaning.

Unfortunately, the plans went for a change after CM Punk decided to stay away from the WrestleMania 30. As a result, the Triple H took on Daniel Bryan, who defeated the The King of Kings in the match. The snap apparently reveals that this was the plan as of 20 January 2014, till a week before the Royal Rumble (26 January).

CM Punk had issues with the company and was planning to leave the sports entertainment. He had walked out of the Raw stating that he was going home. In the months later, the issues escalated between him and the company and he walked out of the WWE in the same year. He reportedly left citing health issues.
