WrestleMania 41 is set to be a spectacular event. In April 2025, WWE is going to take over Las Vegas’ Allegiant Stadium to have their Show of Shows. One of the key figures for the event is the Best in the World CM Punk. Recently, the 45-year-old proposed that he face The Rock and Stone Cold Steve Austin on consecutive nights at the Grandest Stage of Them All.

During the Fanatics Fest, CM Punk was asked about the possibility of facing Steve Austin at WrestleMania. Punk addressed it by saying he is available for WrestleMania next year, and people want him to face the Texas Rattlesnake. The Second City Saint suggested an idea to compete on both nights at the extravaganza. How about the idea of facing not only Austin but The Rock as well? said the Straight Edge Superstar.

You can sign me up. They were asking me about Steve Austin over there. WrestleMania is a two-night event. Give me Steve on one night, give me Rock on Night Two, let’s go!

This statement received a huge reaction at the Fest. The match between Steve Austin and the Voice of the Voiceless has been teased a couple of times in WWE. In 2012, the two stars even had a rugged interaction that was a sign of a possible ‘Mania match. However, the stars were never aligned for the two to square off. Moreover, the Final Boss and the Best in the World have a rich history together, as the former was the one to end the 400+ day title reign of Punk.

Nothing is profound at the moment. The fans should take these comments with a grain of salt, as the former AEW wrestler might have said them rhetorically. It is speculated that he will face Seth Rollins at WrestleMania 41 next year. It has also been rumored that the duo might even main event one night of the Showcase of the Immortals.

CM Punk said one “nice” thing about Drew McIntyre

Drew McIntyre and CM Punk have been involved in a heated feud. They have been going against each other for months and have developed a lot of bad blood. Recently, the Best in the World was addressing his situation with the Scottish Warrior, where he made a hilarious comment about his arch nemesis.

During the Fanatics Fest, the Second City Saint called McIntyre the fourth-best person to ever wear a kilt. He mentioned Roddy Piper and the Highlanders, who wore it better than him. A kilt is the type of bottomwear in Scottish tradition that Drew wears in WWE.

He’s the fourth best wrestler to ever wear a kilt. Roddy Piper, The Highlanders, and Drew McIntyre. Number four with a bullet.

It was hilarious to note that the Voice of the Voiceless even put the lackluster tag team Highlanders above the former WWE Champion. Regardless, there are some rumors that the Voice of the Voiceless might go up against the Scottish Warrior at Bash in Berlin in a Strap Match.
