CM Punk dropped his latest pipe bomb on Raw last night,
attacking Roman Reigns, former WWE Chairman Vince McMahon,
Pat McAfee, The Rock, TKO chief Ari Emanuel, and TKO for
raising ticket prices.
Punk, who opened the show, addressed his WrestleMania
opponent first, telling Reigns that he’s a “bucktoothed nepo
baby who ate dog food for a weird, old man.” This was in
reference to a Vince McMahon angle where Reigns was forced
to eat dog food during an angle with Baron Corbin.
“That weird, old man for years treated me like a dog and he
expected me to smile but I had F U money so I took that and
my dignity and left,” he continued, referring to his fall
out with Vince McMahon.
Punk also referenced Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, telling
Reigns that he does not have a “bloated cousin” who is on
the TKO Board of Directors.
The WWE World Heavyweight champion then turned his attention
to Pat McAfee. McAfee wondered why tickets for WrestleMania
remain available.
“Do me a favor and call up that agent that was foolish
enough to shoehorn you into this business and this show and
tell him to lower the ticket prices,” Punk said, referring
to TKO chief Ari Emanuel. It was Emanuel who pushed for
McAfee to be part of the angle with Orton and Rhodes. The
line got a massive cheer from the Houston crowd. Punk also
warned McAfee that he has a receipt coming his way.
“Lower the ticket prices because I want all of these
families to come watch me stand on Roman Reigns’ throat at
WrestleMania,” he continued. “Because my name is CM Punk,
and I approve this message!”
Punk said that he can “gleefully stand on the bridge and
blow it up” because, “bitch, I know how to swim.” The line
is a reference to about not being afraid to get fired
because he will still land on his feet.
