In the world of WWE, maintaining kayfabe, the portrayal of staged events as real, is paramount. Superstars often go to extreme lengths to maintain kayfabe. A similar incident occurred between the power couple of WWE, Becky Lynch and Seth Rollins. Recently, The Visionary chose to suffer instead of saying nice things about CM Punk.

Seth Rollins appeared on the Hot Ones Versus Show alongside Becky Lynch. During the show, The Man asked The Visionary to say three nice things about Punk. In response, Rollins chose to eat the hot wings instead of saying anything good about the Best in the World. As a result, the World Heavyweight Champion chose to suffer instead of saying nice things for the Second City Savior.

Lynch then hilariously remarked that this was the real hatred, and she pondered who the true winner was in this situation. The feud between Punk and Rollins has been ongoing since Best in the World’s return to WWE at Survivor Series. The World Heavyweight Champion has always expressed his hatred towards the Straight Edge Superstar since the latter’s exit from WWE in 2014.

You know what, here is the thing about Punk. I'm sure there are some nice things to say about him. But, this is a game of choice. I would rather suffer through this hot wing than say anything publicly nice about him. So, this one is for you Punk

Wow, that’s hatred right there. This… oh, who, who, who’s the winner here? You know, like, this is what I’m wondering.

Since Punk’s return, The Architect has shown his hatred towards him in various promos and interviews. It was rumored that Punk was set to face The Visionary at WrestleMania before the unfortunate injury to The Second City Saint changed plans.

Booker T believes Seth Rollins must drop his title to Drew McIntyre

Seth Rollins is set to defend his World Heavyweight Championship against Drew McIntyre at WrestleMania. The Scottish Warrior hypocritically won the Elimination Chamber, thus earning a shot at the title. WWE Hall of Famer Booker T has expressed his opinion on this mouth-watering clash.

Booker T expressed his belief that McIntyre should win the World Heavyweight Championship from Rollins at WrestleMania. He felt that while The Visionary has had an okay run, it hasn’t been particularly outstanding. The legend emphasized that it’s time for The Scottish Warrior to reclaim the top position and that McIntyre shouldn’t have had to work so hard, including winning the Elimination Chamber, without ultimately winning the title.

Nothing against Seth, but Seth has had an okay run. It's nothing been like standout as far as Seth's run. Like I said, it hasn't been a bad run or anything like that, but I do think it's time for Drew McIntyre to get back in that position. I really don't think we would have put Drew McIntyre in such a position where he had to work so hard to get back to it, to win a match like the Elimination Chamber, to go on and not win it.

Drew McIntyre has had an incredible few months, showcasing his new heel persona as one of the best in the business. His recent feud with CM Punk has been particularly noteworthy, with McIntyre taking multiple verbal shots at the Best in the World. Despite his recent success and acclaim, McIntyre’s WWE contract status remains uncertain.
