Seth Rollins recently criticized CM Punk harshly during an appearance on the UP & Adams show with Kay Adams. Punk responded by saying Rollins is “not good for what we’re doing” and expressed a desire for Rollins to disappear.
Rollins described Punk as a negative influence, calling him a “bad guy” and insisting he’s been dealing with the “commercial Punk” for too long. He demanded that Punk stay out of his way and leave the scene entirely.
This tension stems from lingering issues related to how Punk left WWE in 2014, and both wrestlers are currently involved in the same storyline. Rollins leads a faction of villains on Raw, including Bron Breakker, Bronson Reed, and Paul Heyman, who recently turned against Punk. Meanwhile, Punk made a comeback but failed to secure a spot in the men’s Money in the Bank ladder match, which Rollins managed to earn.
Fan Take: This escalating rivalry between Rollins and Punk adds a compelling storyline for WWE fans, promising high-stakes drama. It could redefine character alliances and rivalries, potentially shaping future main event scenes in WWE.
