CM Punk returned to the world of professional wrestling last week when he appeared on WWE Backstage, and he’s already making waves. The former WWE Champion got a lot of people talking when he posted the following on Twitter:
“It IS weird trying to catch up on 5+ years of rasslin’, I’m doing what I can. There’s bright spots, mostly women from what I can tell. There’s BAD too. I’m gonna talk about it, and no one is safe. Join us. @ReneeYoungWWE @WWEonFOX @BookerT5x @RealPaigeWWE @VinceMcMahon @TonyKhan”
Tony Khan then got Randy Orton talking when he responded to Punk with:
No one is safe? Sounds like a plane full of wrestlers in Saudi Arabia!

Orton tried to take a jab at the Khan family by posting an article about Shahid Khan being investigated for corruption along with the caption, “What’s that whole thing about glass houses and stones?”
Tony Khan then took it upon himself to call out Orton for using the n-word on Twitch.
“I thought you only tagged me in your posts when you were grasping for leverage. That article’s over a year old + is about baseless claims made about my dad years ago. That’s the best you can do, nothing. Meanwhile in the time since that was written, you used the N word on twitch.”
Now Randy Orton has taken another jab at Tony Khan by calling him “Jacksonville Dixie” which seems to be a reference to Dixie Carter and her run with TNA/Impact Wrestling.
Jacksonville Dixie:
Why else would I tag you? If I wanted to talk business, I’d call your father.
😘
