CM Punk has now revealed how Triple H threw away a script Punk was reading following his return in 2023.
While speaking on SportBible, CM Punk talked about coming back to WWE at Survivor Series and said there was a bit of friction with Randy Orton. Randy had just come back after being gone for a long time and having major surgery, and Punks return at Survivor Series ended up taking the attention away from Randys big moment.
The next week, Randy had a match with Dominik Mysterio. Their match ran longer than planned, which meant Punk didnt get enough time for his promo. But he didnt take it too seriously, he joked around about it and figured he could always say what he needed next week since there are live shows every week.
Punk also revealed a funny story from backstage with Triple H. He was walking around holding a piece of paper with his promo written on it, and he kept looking at it. Triple H saw him and asked what he was doing, saying that Punk was freaking people out. Triple H said no one was used to seeing him carry a script.
Punk told Triple H he didnt want to step on anyones toes since he was still getting used to being back. Triple H took the paper, crumpled it, and threw it away. He told Punk to just be himself and talk to the fans like he always does. That moment gave Punk the confidence boost he needed and reminded him why he was there in the first place.
This comes after CM Punk made it clear he and Triple H are on the same page and they have a great relationship now. Therefore, its clear Triple H ultimately wanted whats best for Punk and thats all that matters in the end.
