WWE Star Accuses CM Punk Of Crying To Get WrestleMania Spot

CM Punk isn’t popular with everyone in WWE.

At WrestleMania 41, CM Punk finally achieved his dream and stepped into the ring in the main event. The star had spent years trying to land one of the coveted main event spots, having been denied by factors outside of his control on more than one occasion.

Elsewhere at WrestleMania, Dominik Mysterio secured arguably the biggest win of his singles career as he won the Intercontinental Title. But that victory has done little to dampen his annoyance at Punk.

The pair have repeatedly taken shots at each other since Punk returned to WWE in 2023, and that shows no sign of going away.

Dominik Mysterio “F*cking Hates” CM Punk

In a new interview with The Wrestling Classic on Casual Conversations, Mysterio accused Punk of crying to get his WrestleMania spot before mocking his age and “Best in the world” moniker.

“I think we just both mutually hate each other, equally. I f*cking hate CM Punk. I don’t know what it is about that guy.

I don’t know if it’s because he looks like Eddie Munster and I want to kick him in the fucking face, or the fact that everyone is like, ‘He finally did it, he finally got his WrestleMania main event.’ Good for you, old man. 60 years old, it took you what, 45 years to accomplish your one goal? It’s about time.

It’s what they say about babies. When they have tantrums, you give them what they want so they shut the f*ck up. I’m pretty sure that’s what happened. That’s why he needed a favor from Paul Heyman.

There is a reason he was never in the main event. You call yourself the Best in the World. I don’t need to go around calling myself the Best in the World. People know I’m better than the best. I don’t need to call myself Best in the World at 70 years old.

People do it for me. You have [John] Cena talking about me, JBL, AJ Styles, legends talking about me. I don’t need to do it for myself or say these things about me because people say it for me. My work speaks for itself. Here you go with CM Punk. I could go on this rant forever but I need to stop myself,”

At Saturday Night’s Main Event, CM Punk will team with Sami Zayn to take on Seth Rollins and Bron Breakker. At WrestleMania, Paul Heyman abandoned Punk to join forces with Rollins, and they recruited Breakker 24 hours later.
