Vince Russo claims WWE added CM Punk to spite him after RAW criticism

Vince Russo suggests his social media criticism of Triple H influenced WWE’s decision to add CM Punk to Team OG Bloodline for Survivor Series: WarGames. The former WWE writer shared his perspective during Sportskeeda Wrestling’s Writing with Russo.

Russo’s theory stems from a tweet he posted following RAW, where he questioned Triple H’s creative direction after Solo Sikoa stood on a table during Seth Rollins’ match. He believes WWE originally planned to include Rollins in the WarGames match but changed course after his criticism.

“I honestly believe that was the plan and somebody read the tweet and said, ‘Let’s stick it up Vince’s backside,'” Russo explained. He added that without proper follow-up, the situation could damage Rollins’ character unless he interferes with Punk during the match.
