AND IT WAS A CRASH OUT! CM Punk kicked off this week’s Monday Night Raw with pure frustration. The Best in the World took aim at WWE’s higher powers—The Rock and John Cena—calling them out for their actions at Elimination Chamber. Punk didn’t hold back, branding the Hollywood icons as hypocrites.
In a scathing rant, The Straight Edge Superstar vowed never to give up on his dream of main-eventing WrestleMania. Taking a direct shot at John Cena, he declared that, unlike Cena, he would never sell his soul for glory. Punk claimed that when Cena turned heel, he didn’t just abandon himself—he abandoned his fans.
Listen up Dwayne…You bald fraud, you think because you are on the board of directors, you’re immune from criticism? Well you don’t know who you’re dealing with. You are dealing with The Best in the World.

Punk also took aim at The Rock, declaring that despite the Hollywood icon’s power and status, he has no respect for him. Additionally, the former AEW star made it clear that while the time may not be now, he will cross paths with both megastars later this year. However, before he could say more, his epic promo was abruptly cut short by Seth Rollins, who wasted no time in attacking The Second City Saint.
CM Punk having the ability to absolutely COOK The Rock and John Cena in one promo proves just how godly Punk is with a microphone in his hand.

Chaos erupted on Monday Night Raw as CM Punk and Rollins brawled all over the arena. Despite WWE officials’ attempts to separate them, both men relentlessly went after each other. With fire in their eyes, they tore into one another, adding another brutal chapter to their heated rivalry. The question remains—what’s next for these two superstars?
CM Punk set to face Seth Rollins in a ‘Steel Cage’ match next week
CM Punk has been seething with frustration ever since Seth Rollins cost him his WrestleMania opportunity at Elimination Chamber. On Raw, he unleashed his fury on The Visionary, taunting him as a “little brother” while taking the fight to him. As their chaotic brawl spilled across the arena, Raw GM Adam Pearce was left with a bold decision to make.

In the aftermath, Pearce made it official—Punk and Rollins will collide once again next week at Madison Square Garden. However, it will not be a singles showdown; the two stars will square off inside a ‘Steel Cage’. This announcement brought a smile to Rollins’ face, who then vowed to end The Best in the World in New York.
