He sounds bitter. One of the biggest wrestling stories of the year was the return of CM Punk to WWE. Following nearly ten years of absence, Punk made a surprise return at Survivor Series and has since seemingly set his sights on Seth Rollins. This comes after years of statements from both sides and those statements have not stopped now that Punk is back in the fold.

WWE ran a live event in Toronto, Canada on Friday, with Rollins successfully defending his World Heavyweight Championship against Drew McIntyre and Shinsuke Nakamura in the show’s main event. Following the match, Rollins spoke about how Punk only cared about himself and how he wasn’t going to be at the show. Rollins went on to lead the fans in a CM PUNK chant, which evolved into the fans singing his song. Punk was not advertised for the show. No match between Punk and Rollins has been announced.
It was a busy night. Check out the promo, plus Punk and Rollins:
Opinion: This is the kind of thing that makes things all the more interesting, as Punk and Rollins are more than on their way towards a major showdown. The story is already set up and all they have to do is get to the match itself. Even promos like these, which would usually only be for the live crowd, will now be available online so the story can be advanced just as quickly.
What do you think of the idea? How will the eventual match go? Let us know in the comments below.
