This week’s episode of Monday Night Raw featured a huge main event as CM Punk, AJ Styles and El Grande Americano faced off in a Money in the Bank qualifying match.
Unfortunately for CM Punk, Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed decided to interfere which led to El Grande Americano picking up the win. Sami Zayn and Jey Uso tried to save CM Punk, but Seth Rollins then made his way out into the arena, and Raw went off the air with Reed, Rollins and Breakker standing tall.
After Raw went off the air CM Punk addressed the crowd and the audience started multiple “we want Truth” chants as Punk was cutting his promo. CM Punk reacted to the chants when he jokingly said to the crowd, “Let the record state that I said how dare you chant for someone who’s not here.” The Second City Saint then called for Jey Uso’s music to be played.
