CM Punk has been heavily involved with the fans in his run as a babyface on Raw. However, there is a large part of the fanbase that still has serious doubts about The Second City Saint. Taking it to Instagram, the latter shared such an incident where a fan questioned his advocacy for transgenders since joining WWE.

The 45-year-old shared a screenshot of a message from a fan who was calling him cynical for not mentioning transgenders in WWE. With deep anger, Punk lashed out at the fan with a profanity-filled message. He defended himself by expressing his support for the trans rights, even though he has not mentioned it in WWE.

It was a stern response by CM Punk that looked quite out of character. The former AEW star has been open about trans rights in the past. During his stint in AEW, he publicly supported the LGBTQ+ community in various interviews. Therefore, his views about the transgender community are unquestionable.

Nonetheless, The Voice of the Voiceless has a tough task ahead of him this weekend. He is going to face Drew McIntyre inside Hell in a Cell to write the final chapter of their iconic rivalry. It is going to be interesting to see what Punk’s future is going to look like following this barbaric encounter with The Scottish Warrior.

Speaking on the No-Contest Wrestling Podcast, Punk said that he felt lost about his move once he walked through the curtain. Meanwhile, The Game was lashing out on him, saying that he was supposed to stand between the WarGames cages. However, the 45-year-old stated that it was difficult for him to hear anything due to how loud the crowd was.

I don’t know what the set looks like, I don’t know if there’s a ramp. I’m literally in the dark, and so I’m trying to talk to Triple H over the table, and it’s so loud and there’s so many people and they hit my music and I’m like, ‘I don’t know what I’m doing. What am I doing?’

Therefore, it caused a wave of confusion momentarily at the gorilla position. Punk added that Hunter then removed his headsets as he provided him the directions. Even after the hassle, The Best in the World said he felt quite good to be back at the scene, making his way in front of the fans.
