He’s not a fan. Last night at a WWE live event in Utica, New York, Seth Rollins successfully defended the World Heavyweight Title against Shinsuke Nakamura. Following the match, the crowd started chanting for CM Punk.
Rollins had the following to say in response to the chants:
”Excuse me, who’s that? Wait, [the] serious question is, was that guy on the show tonight? No, hey, maybe one of these days he’ll grow a set and he’ll come up here to Utica, New York. He’s the best in the world, right? No, in all seriousness, I’m the freakin’ best in the world. Because every single town, every single night, it doesn’t matter the opponent, I show up and I show out. I was here the last time we were in this building.”

Editor’s Opinion:
At first, I thought that Rollins was legitimately mad that Punk was back, and maybe he was. However, based on these interactions, and what we heard from Punk on his promo last week on SmackDown, this is going to be one of the Wrestlemania main events and might be one of the greatest of all time. I can’t wait.
