Roman Reigns will be in the same building as CM Punk once again as WWE Monday Night RAW heads to Madison Square Garden.

For the last four weeks, WWE Monday Night RAW has been headlined by promo segments involving CM Punk. Three of those episodes have also involved Roman Reigns, who will challenge Punk for the World Heavyweight Title at WrestleMania 42.

In the main event of WWE Raw on March 23rd, Roman Reigns was encouraged by his cousin Jey Uso to fight Punk, which led to Reigns beating Punk in a significant way. Reigns hit Punk with signature moves like a Superman Punch and Spear. Reigns also gave Punk a Powerbomb through the commentary table to end the show.

During an appearance on The Tonight Show, Roman Reigns continued to poke the bear, so to speak, by trashing CM Punk for being older than him.

On Instagram, Roman Reigns posted a video from behind the scenes when he was a guest on “The Tonight Show” with Jimmy Fallon in New York City. At the end of the video, Reigns had a message for CM Punk, whom he likes to call Phil, which is Punk’s real name.

“Imma head back down to Miami for a little while then I’m coming right back up here. Phil, get some rest. You need it, old a** b**ch.”
