CM Punk made his big return to WWE at Survivor Series and almost everyone was happy to see him. Seth Rollins made it clear immediately that he wasn’t happy about Punk’s return then later confronted him during a promo segment on Monday Night Raw. Now it seems that CM Punk and Seth Rollins are on a collision course.
During the 2024 preview special CM Punk talked about the career path that Seth Rollins has taken while pondering if Rollins would have gotten the opportunities he’s received in his career if Punk hadn’t paved the road.
“I viewed Seth as somebody who was following my footsteps. I think there are a lot of people who are in WWE now who, for better or for worse, looked up to a guy like me. I always like to thank the legends that helped paved the way for the roads that I travel now. Guys like Terry Funk, Eddie Guerrero, Bret Hart, Tracy Smothers, Chris Candido. There are a litany of guys that I always feel, I wouldn’t have gotten the opportunities that I got if it weren’t for them. I guess I’m in a position where, it feels maybe strange, me vocalizing it, but Seth is a guy, at least I definitely thought it ten years ago. He’s a dude that I don’t think would have gotten the opportunities that he’s gotten if it wasn’t for me. That might hurt some people’s feelings, but facts are facts, they don’t care about your feelings.”
CM Punk then went on to speculate that maybe Seth Rollins is jealous before saying that if Seth is still champion after the Royal Rumble then maybe they can settle their differences inside the ring.
