WWE hasn’t wasted any time in getting CM Punk his first match since returning to the company. Fans, however, will be unable to watch it at home.

Punk’s return was kept a closely guarded secret at Survivor Series, with only the main eventers being aware. The deal for him to return was made ten days before he returned and is a multi-year agreement.

Punk returned to RAW on Monday night, where he had a heated exchange with World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins before declaring his intention to compete in the Men’s Royal Rumble match.

Punk will face Dominik Mysterio at a WWE live event on Saturday, December 30th, at the Kia Forum in Inglewood, California. The arena made the announcement today. Punk’s last WWE match was at the 2014 Royal Rumble.

At the show, Mysterio was supposed to wrestle Cody Rhodes in a Last Man Standing match. The show will also feature Rollins vs. Drew McIntyre vs. Shinsuke Nakamura, as well as Bianca Belair vs. Charlotte Flair vs. WWE Women’s Champion IYO SKY.

CM Punk is not scheduled to wrestle at any other live events as of this writing.
