The wrestling world was set ablaze when CM Punk made a jaw-dropping return to WWE at Survivor Series. However, not everyone was cheering, and two superstars, Seth Rollins and Drew McIntyre, made their sentiments known in a fiery fashion.
Seth Rollins is vocal about his opposition to Punk’s return, and didn’t hold back during WWE’s house show in Peoria, Illinois. As the crowd erupted into a “CM Punk” chant, Rollins responded with a pointed remark, “I’m not gonna waste any more breath on somebody who’s been gone for eight years, has done nothing but try to tear this place down.” Despite the tension, Rollins shifted the focus to the fans and the WWE crew, emphasizing their dedication to making WWE a “hot ticket in town.”
To cap off the night, Rollins chose to end on a positive note, leading the crowd to sing his theme song. A strategic move to redirect the narrative and keep the spotlight on those who’ve been integral to WWE’s success.
Drew McIntyre, who reportedly left Allstate Arena in frustration after Survivor Series, addressed the online buzz during a backstage promo. Though he didn’t delve too deep, McIntyre acknowledged the rumors and hinted at his disappointment, saying, “Not in a great place.” However, he swiftly shifted gears, expressing a burning desire to secure the World Title and turn things around. His proclamation that Peoria, Illinois, would be the ideal stage for this triumph was punctuated with a cheeky “Cheap pop.”
As the wrestling drama unfolds, with worked shots and genuine emotions entwined, the WWE universe is left eagerly anticipating the next chapters. The stage is set for a compelling storyline to unravel on Raw and in the weeks ahead.
In the unpredictable world of professional wrestling, where emotions run high and storylines intertwine with reality, Rollins and McIntyre’s responses to Punk’s return add an extra layer of intrigue to the unfolding narrative.
