DJ Hed Recalls Meeting CM Punk, ‘We Have Mutual Perspectives On Life’
DJ Hed is a radio DJ and personality, who most notably worked with Kendrick Lamar for the Pop Out concert in June.
He’s also a wrestling fan, and he was in attendance when WWE Raw came to California last Monday.
Speaking on the Bigger Picture, DJ Hed recalled his experience and linking up with CM Punk.
“CM Punk and I have mutual perspectives on life. Big fan of CM Punk. He lives a straight edge lifestyle. He advocates for it publicly. He doesn’t do drugs or anything like that. I’ve been doing the same thing my entire career.
“Right now, it’s a cool production. Everyone knows it’s scripted and they’re not relying on kayfabe or the fourth wall. Now, it’s all about storytelling and it’s really really good. It’s the best it’s been in a decade. Currently, with Triple H taking over and running creative. We’ve seen all behind the scenes and storylines. You have two black women as WWE women’s champions right now. It’s a different era. You can’t fake ticket sales. All the tentpole events are going two days. They just announced Cardi B at SummerSlam. You can’t fake ticket sales. If you do a football arena two days in a row, there is no way to fake that. Monday Night Raw coming to Netflix in January, it’s going to be epic. It’s going to the landscape of how we consume content.”
Hed said that he also related to CM Punk because Punk was allowed to speak his mind on WWE TV and he was allowed to speak his mind at iHeartMedia during a past “discrepancy.”
Punk is set to face Drew McIntyre inside Hell in a Cell at WWE Bad Blood. Fans can check out the current lineup for the show by clicking here.
