Seth Rollins has spoken in regards to the history he shared with CM Punk and discussed if there’s scope for them to bury the hatchet.
Rollins and Punk have a real-life rivalry dating several years, and the previous recently spoke to Shannon Sharpe on “Club Shay Shay” if the 2 at the moment are friends.
“I would not say so [that we’re friends. I mean, there’s obviously some kind of working relationship, otherwise, you already know, we would not find a way to go on the market and have matches. But there’s just a lot. It is so complex. I believe perhaps once we’re each away from the business or retired or have hung it up, there could be a possibility for reconciliation there. It’s just so hard for me to separate the CM Punk that there may be now from the CM Punk that was a extremely rotten friend to me 10 years ago,” he admitted. “And so it’s just those wounds take time to heal. I believe whether or not he cares to take the time to do this and I care to care if he makes the hassle to do this, I do not know. I do not know if either of us have the time for it in the intervening time.”
Rollins disclosed that WWE management hasn’t asked them to patch things up, but he was asked by WWE, before Punk’s return, about his feelings towards the previous AEW star rejoining the corporate. While he doesn’t see eye-to-eye with Punk in any respect, Rollins said that he’ll put aside his differences with Punk to work with him within the ring.
Rollins recalled his past friendship with Punk, which works back way before either of them was a component of WWE. He credited Punk for taking part in a component in him and Jon Moxley being called as much as the major roster, and even revealed how Punk let him stay in his house. But, things turned sour between the 2 following Punk’s controversial departure from WWE, with Rollins claiming that Punk went silent despite him reaching out to talk to him.
