As noted by wwefan4life, there are rumours that CM Punk has left the WWE.
CM Punk has been removed from advertising for all future WWE events, including the Elimination Chamber pay-per-view. It is reported that he had a meeting with WWE officials on Monday afternoon, and told WWE Chairman Vince McMahon that he was going home.
That afternoon, McMahon told the writers to make major changes to Raw’s script. One of the most notable changes was that Punk did not feature on the show. Early reports suggested that this was a response to the negative reaction fans gave at the Royal Rumble pay-per-view. Punk had been scheduled to advance his feud with Kane, but this was apparently delayed until next week’s Raw. Since then, Punk has been removed from advertising for the show.
Most of the reports on this incident are speculation right now. Punk had been unhappy with the WWE for some time, and made no secret of the fact that he didn’t want to renew his contract when it expires this Summer. Punk is said to have been in a bad mood after recent WWE shows, including the Royal Rumble, but this was also normal for him. Rumour has it that he was disinterested in the WWE product during his time at the Wizard World Q&A session in Portland, Oregon last weekend.
Our undercover reporter CBV tried to sneak an exclusive interview, but all he could find out is that Punk is a really cool guy.
Punk has a lot of reasons to be upset. He was recently told off for talking about an ice hockey game on Twitter before the ‘TLC – Tables, Ladder and Chairs’ pay-per-view last month. He also was frustrated with WWE management when they considered punishing his girlfriend, A.J. Lee, for an incident that occurred at the ‘Tribute To The Troops’ taping. Punk has also been requesting time to rest internal injuries for 5 months now, but he has been working 90% of WWE shows since.
Punk is apparently unhappy with how the Royal Rumble finished. Even though he is friends with the match winner, he strongly felt that it should have been Daniel Bryan that won the match. At one point, there was a solid plan to have Bryan win the Rumble, but he was then removed as early as last October.
Other reports are “confirming†that Punk was due to lose an Elimination Chamber qualifier to Antonio Cesaro. Others are “confirming†that Daniel Bryan will now face Triple H at WrestleMania XXX instead of Punk. With that said, the tag team match Cesaro had at Raw was also in the original script. And Bryan is still slated for facing Sheamus at WrestleMania.
The only people who have actually commented on the situation are Matt Hardy and JTG. Hardy claims to understand things from Punk’s perspective, and encourages fans to wait until they have heard the full story before commenting on it. JTG simply made a joke about Lita, who has dated both men.

So Punk allegedly walked out & quit WWE. Interesting. It's impossible 2 understand the toll that job can have on you-unless you've lived it.
…
A "screw you" from Punk? NO. Punk's gotta prioritize his own sanity & health. Sometimes WWE isn't conducive to those two things.
…
From my experience- When you're in constant physical pain, frustrated the majority of the time, & resent what u love, things have to change.
