Fans jump off their seats whenever a massive return happens. However, the wrestling world was shaken when the polarizing superstar, CM Punk made his return to WWE. There has been a flood of reactions from all sides since then. While some dissed Punk for a seemingly hypocritical move, others are making amends for the sour relationship they had with the Best in the World. Former World Tag Team Champion Road Dogg is one of those names.

In his ‘Oh You Didn’t Know’ podcast, he discussed how his recent interaction with the Second City Saint eroded all negativity from his mind. The HOF’er explained how he felt brotherly love for him as they settled their differences. Further, the Hall of Famer also felt pangs of shame when he recalled his past toxicity against the former WWE champion.
