CM Punk has a battle ahead of him at Saturday Nights Main Event. Thanks to Seth Rollins being stripped of the WWE World Heavyweight Championship due to injury, Punk will face Jey Uso for the title in Salt Lake City. Punk had already won a #1 contender match prior to that, and then Jey Uso clinched the other spot after winning a battle royal This all puts Punk at quite a crossroads, and there are many opinions out there about how things should play out.
During a recent interview with TMZ Sports, Tyrus was asked for his opinion on CM Punk possibly winning a championship at Saturday Nights Main Event. After all, that could be the world were living in when November 1 is over.
Tyrus said CM Punk should focus on helping younger wrestlers instead of chasing titles. He praised Punk for helping him in the past, that being said, he still believes its now time for others to shine. He went on to use Chris Jerichos work in AEW as an example of how veterans can elevate new talent.
Chris Jericho has done a lot in AEW when it comes to helping out new talent, but CM Punk has also made frequent stops by the WWE Performance Center. Both have also influenced a generation of pro wrestlers after them. Odds are, that will not stop in the years to come.
Only time will tell what happens with CM Punk and Jey Usos big World Heavyweight Title match at Saturday Nights Main Event. Tyrus will likely be watching along with the rest of us, and his opinion about how the match should turn out is more than clear.
