Triple H was recently interviewed on the Sports Illustrated Podcast on which he was asked about CM Punk possibly returning to the company and the rumors of him working on the WWE Backstage show for FS1. Here is what he said:

"Look, I've read about that as well," Triple H said of the Punk - FS1 reports. "You know, to be clear, FOX is doing this show, and it's their show, and it's something they're doing to talk about the WWE Universe and everything going on in it. They've had a long list of people they've been interviewing and everything, but as far as for us, one of the things I think this company has shown over and over again, is never say never.

"If the opportunity is right for everybody and it's right for our fans, then we are willing to put the past behind us and move forward. So, I would say, never say never, but that's also probably a long way from coming to. I don't know. That's also a little bit outside of my purview at the moment, but like I said, never say never."

WWE Backstage premieres on Tuesday, November 5 with Renee Young and WWE Hall of Famer Booker T as the hosts.
