D-Von Dudley Opens Up About Meeting CM Punk
WWE Hall of Famer D-Von Dudley shared a heartwarming encounter with CM Punk at WrestleMania weekend, offering a refreshing perspective amidst the event’s intense moments.
CM Punk left a significant mark on WrestleMania 40, influencing the event’s outcome by orchestrating an assault on newly-crowned WWE World Heavyweight Champion Drew McIntyre. This act paved the way for Damian Priest to successfully cash in his Money in the Bank briefcase. Furthermore, Punk’s ongoing feud with McIntyre remained a focal point throughout the weekend’s festivities.
However, amidst the whirlwind of excitement, D-Von Dudley experienced a pleasant surprise when he unexpectedly met Punk in an elevator, as recounted by Dudley during a recent episode of Gabby AF. Dudley described the encounter as a moment marked by mutual respect and friendliness. He recalled how the interaction with Punk was filled with warmth and camaraderie, stating:
This past weekend at WrestleMania, me and my wife and kids, we were in the elevator and Dominik [Mysterio] comes in. I’d known Dominik for a long time, even when I was producing. Then all of a sudden the next stop was CM Punk. He looked at me, I looked at him. I was like, ‘Yo, what’s going on, man?’ He was like, ‘D-Von! Hey!’ I was like, ‘Hey, nice to meet you, man. I’ve never met you before.’ And I told him the whole story of how he met Bubba first, and I said, ‘But don’t worry about it. I’m the better looking of the Dudleys.’ He kind of cracked and smiled. I was like, ‘No, all jokes aside, pleasure meeting you, man.’ He came off as one of the most pleasant guys I think I’d ever met.’
Reflecting on the encounter, Dudley recounted the exchange with fondness, highlighting the light-hearted banter exchanged between them. Despite any prior controversies surrounding Punk, including backstage altercations at events like AEW All In 2023 and All Out 2022, D-Von Dudley emphasised the importance of forming opinions based on personal experiences.
