WWE writer speculates on CM Punk's favor from Paul Heyman

Former WWE writer Freddie Prinze Jr. shared his perspective on CM Punk’s potential request from Paul Heyman following the alliance with Roman Reigns at Survivor Series: WarGames. Prinze Jr. suggests the favor could impact Cody Rhodes’ position in the title picture.

Heyman introduced Punk as the crucial fifth member of Roman Reigns’ WarGames team, with the agreement hinging on a future favor. After helping secure victory for The OG Bloodline, speculation has grown about the nature of this mysterious arrangement.

Speaking on his Wrestling with Freddie podcast, Prinze Jr. proposed a scenario involving the Undisputed WWE Championship. “Maybe if one day Roman gets the title back off Cody then that’s the favor that CM Punk asks for,” he said. “Yo, I want a shot at the title. That’s what I want you to give me.”

Potential favor could create tension within The Bloodline

The proposed scenario suggests potential complications for both Cody Rhodes and Roman Reigns. If Reigns recaptures the title from Rhodes, Punk could immediately invoke his favor for a championship opportunity, potentially leaving Rhodes without a rematch clause.

This development would put Heyman in a precarious position between his current alliance with Reigns and his obligation to Punk. The situation highlights the complex dynamics at play following the unexpected partnership formed at Survivor Series: WarGames.
