Since his return from a torn tricep, CM Punk is on fire, earning acclaim from fans each on the microphone and within the ring. Two weeks ago, on the March third episode of “Raw,” Punk cut a scathing promo on The Rock, John Cena, and Seth Rollins. The impassioned sylliquoy caused the live crowd to erupt and shows that Punk is dialed in heading into WrestleMania 41.
One such legend who acknowledges the segment is Kevin Nash. Speaking on his podcast, “Kliq This,” Nash heaps praise on Punk’s promo and his past month in WWE.
“I assumed the Punk promo was superb. He’s been the highlight of the last month for me, I feel.”
It’s kind of odd hearing Nash praise Punk for those of us who lived through the Pipebomb-era Punk, who had harsh things to say to the WWE Hall of Famer during their program together in 2011. Nash also comments on the pull apart brawl between Punk and Rollins that followed his promo and the coordination it takes.
“Primary, from a standpoint of being one among the boys and doing a pull apart, that’s some of the exhausting f****n’ things you possibly can do. I’m sure that the people who they’ve as security are from the performance center, since the worst thing that you would be able to do is definitely grab the f****n’ guy. See how their hands are all loose? No person is cinching, because that is the way you tear a tricep.”
Most recently, Punk faced Seth Rollins in a steel cage match, resulting in a Roman Reigns run-in, presumably organising a triple threat match between the three at WrestleMania 41.
