WWE RAW rolled into the KFC Yum! Center in Louisville, Kentucky tonight, and it was quite a show. CM Punk was on hand, and that always means newsworthy events are bound to happen.
CM Punk lost his main event match at WrestleMania when Paul Heyman turned on both him and Roman Reigns during that triple threat contest. Punk hasnt made much of an impact since then, but things were set to change this week.
CM Punk kicked off WWE RAW this week. Naturally, fans gave him an incredible reception as he made his way to the ring. Once he picked up the microphone, it was all down to business.
The Second City Savior was not happy, but he was glad to be in Louisville. He still cant shake his anger, and he started talking about his list of enemies, with himself being number one with a bullet. He said that weve been here before, because Paul Heyman has stabbed him in the back before.
CM Punk proceeded to call Paul Heyman a fat, little snake. He also admitted to being mad at the Temu CM Punk, Seth Rollins. Then Punk said he cant wait to squeeze Paul Heymans head until his eyes came out of his head. At that time, Paul Heymans voice was heard on the microphone. Punk told Heyman to come out, while calling him The Penguin.
Before Heyman could come any further, Seth Rollins music hit, and the Visionary came out with Bron Breakker behind him. CM Punk said that Rollins is just a song, and fans barked at Breakker. Seth Rollins then proceeded to say that Heyman is Punks best friend, but he made his life a living hell on the road to WrestleMania. The way Rollins saw it, Punk was the one who betrayed Heyman instead.
Seth Rollins said that his belief is that CM Punk is trash, and that is correct. Then Rollins said that Punk loves to play the victim. Then he sent Bron Breakker to the ring to arrange that for Punk. Punk and Breakker started fighting in the ring as Rollins got in. Breakker got the upperhand and beat Punk down, but then CM Punk got around Breakker to take down Punk before Breakker took him down. Suddenly, Sami Zayn rushed the ring, and he tried to help, but Bron Breakker took care of him. Then it was a two on one situation with Punk against Breakker and Rollins, who was given a chair by Heyman.
Jey Uso rushed the ring after that and helped Punk, but the Rollins and Breakker stopped him. Suddenly, Punk and Sami got in the ring with chairs to chase them all off. This is how the opening segment of RAW ended, and it was quite an exciting beginning.
We will have to see what CM Punk is able to do as WWE heads toward the summer. He still has a ton of attention on him, so whatever he does is sure to make some noise.
Whats our take on CM Punks direction in WWE at this point? How should they book him creatively? Let us know what you think in the comments section!
