CM Punk Wants To See People Get Punched, Trinity’s Farewell, Athena Returns | WWE x TNA x ROH Fight Size
Here’s your fight size update following TNA iMPACT, ROH Wrestling, and WWE’s WrestleMania 40 Kickoff on Thursday, February 8, 2024.
– CM Punk was a panelist during the WrestleMania kickoff. Throughout the night, especially following the confrontation at the end of the night that would see The Rock align with Roman Reigns in defense of their family after Cody Rhodes chose to face Roman Reigns at WrestleMania 40 and claimed that Roman’s ancestors would be ashamed of him, Punk made it clear that Cody Rhodes is being too nice and he needs to start punching people in the face.
Punk also claimed that Seth Rollins, who was on stage for this confrontation as well and would also get in the face of The Rock and Roman Reigns, is being too nice and that he needs to start swinging at people as well. To put it simply, CM Punk believes that issues can be solved in professional wrestling when men punch each other in the face.
