CM Punk has been out of action since September of 2022, but he recently got people talking on social media when he posted an Instagram story where he talked about his feud with Jon Moxley last summer for the AEW World Championship. In the post, which was quickly deleted, Punk claimed that Jon Moxley refused to lose to him and he also took a shot at Chris Jericho when he posted the following:
“SIGH. I wasn’t cleared to come back to wrestle yet. Then plan was to wrestle at the ppv. I sat and listened to moxleys Rocky three idea. I explained how I’d never seen a Rocky movie. I thought the idea sucked but if the boss wanted to do it whatever. He said he wouldn’t lose to me. I’d never experienced someone refusing to lose to me. I just laughed.”
“I asked Tony if this was what he wanted. He said yes. He’s the boss so I said okay but I’d need to be cleared first. They kept saying it could just be a squash I didn’t need to be cleared. I scoffed at that. My health is more important. Dave Meltzer is a liar. Jericho is a liar and a stooge. There were plans but plans always change but I’ll never put a company above my health ever again.”
Booker T reacted to CM Punk’s rant in the Instagram story that he posted on his Hall of Fame podcast, and he made it clear that he thinks Punk handled the situation in a manner that was childish.
“One thing about insider information and stuff like that, brother, it just goes to show me what this business is. Where you’re talking about the business, and giving all of the insider information to the fans that watch. They’re the ones that’re writing your check. That’s the dumbest thing I could ever imagine in my life! Certain terms being used in that little soliloquy… It just amazes me how childish these guys really are. The (most) childish thing I’ve ever seen in my life, as far as a 44-year-old man talking on (Instagram).”
