CM Punk makes major announcement after victory against Seth Rollins on WWE RAW
“46 is just a number. From 1 to 30, they’re just numbers. Royal Rumble, you’re next on the list,” stated CM Punk on Netflix.
CM Punk emerged victorious from his match against Seth Rollins on WWE RAW broadcast on Netflix. After delivering two “GTS,” Punk secured the victory in the show’s main event.
In an interview after the live broadcast, Punk announced his participation in the Royal Rumble Match and revealed his targets:
46 is just a number. From 1 to 30, they’re just numbers. Royal Rumble, you’re next on the list. Gunther, I’m coming for you. Cody, I’m coming for you. I’m Mr. October. I’m Game 7. I’m decisive. I’m the best in the world.
During the post-show press conference, Punk admitted that his rivalry with Seth Rollins might continue:
I’d like to say this was the only time I’ll have to deal with Seth Rollins, but we know that won’t be true. Drew McIntyre was a challenge, just trying to get rid of him was complicated. I don’t see Seth simply giving up or ‘going to sleep,’ so to speak.
