That’s the beauty of what we do. We don’t have to pull punches. It’s almost like a therapy session on live TV. There is a lot of personal history there between me and CM Punk, and different perspectives. He’s on a different side of and is ten years older than I am. He sees our relationship a lot different than I did. It’s been very interesting to kind of lay all of this out to the world because I think people see it from both sides, especially someone who might be a fan of CM Punk, they root for him and want him to come back and long for him to come back to WWE. Then you hear the side of the people who he sort of stepped on along the way, with no apology and no remorse. You start to hear that and ask questions about, ‘Whose side am I really on here? Who is a good guy and who is a bad guy?’ I think that’s what makes it interesting. For me, it’s been an interesting time and year to lay all of that out, stuff I’ve kept inside for a long time. You see it pop out here and there in little interviews. Now, I finally get a microphone and be able to unload on the guy, the truth is the truth and sometimes it hurts.
Punk defeated Rollins at the January 6 Raw on Netflix premiere and eliminated him from the Royal Rumble. A potential rematch could happen at Elimination Chamber if Rollins defeats Finn Balor in a qualifying match, as Punk has already secured his spot.
