CM Punk isnt afraid to peel back the curtainand this time, hes revealing the unspoken truth about WWEs time management rule.
In a new interview with SPORTbible to promote the WWE Unreal docuseries, Punk got real about how going over time works in WWE and why its not always a bad thing as long as the segment is fire. Punk explained theres a secret rule in WWE: you can push your time limitif your segment delivers.
He made it clear that he tries to stay within his time, or even go short if he feels it helps the show. Respecting his fellow wrestlersespecially those in the next segmentis a big part of that mindset.
Punk says that kind of mutual respect drives how the WWE locker room manages time on the fly. And while hes careful about his own limits, some actslike The Bloodline or The Rockget more leeway when the crowd is red-hot.
He also broke down how overseas crowds factor into timing. When theyre locked in, WWE lets them run wild.
CM Punks perspective shows how timing in WWE isnt just about clocksits about instinct, respect, and knowing when the crowd is truly locked in. Hes not here to hog the spotlighthes here to make sure the whole show clicks.
