WWE held a live event in Chicago, IL at the Allstate Arena on December 29th 2024. The main event was Gunther vs. Chicago’s own CM Punk in a steel cage match for the world heavyweight championship.

For the finish, Punk was on the verge of escaping the cage. However, Dominik Mysterio interfered by slamming the cage door into Punk’s face. Gunther was then able to escape to retain his title.

In his Instagram story, Punk commented on the event…

“Chicago. What can I say? I love you with all my heart. Been over ten years since I was able to wrestle in what I will always call the rosemont horizon. It is my privilege. Two million dollar houses, on our way to a third in Houston. Proud of everyone on the crew who worked hard and made it all possible except little Dominick Mysterio who is a greasy twat.”

According to @WrestleTix, nearly 12,000 tickets had been distributed for the event.
