As seen below, as part of the hype for his appearance on Saturday for Starrcast III, CM Punk recorded a video of himself in a wrestling ring.
Punk cuts the promo inside of a Pro Wrestling Tees wrestling ring and jokes that it doesn’t feel right on the top rope, and that the middle rope hurt. Punk also sat down in the corner like ECW Original Raven at one point, and then sat in the middle of the ring like Aleister Black, and like he once did. He said, “Everybody sits this way now, right?”
Punk then cut a promo to hype Saturday’s live interview and discussion at Starrcast III.
“Should I be Phil or CM Punk? I have no idea what I’m gonna say,” Punk said of the gig. “There’s no script, I’m not following a storyline. I’m coming to hang out with some fans and yes, I’ll have a live microphone in my hand, so who knows what’s going to happen? And that’s the thing, every time I have a live microphone in my hand they never know exactly what I’m going to say, and that’s got me in a lot of trouble. I’m hoping to avoid any kind of trouble come Saturday, but you never can tell.”
Punk then took a basic bump on the mat and joked that Starrcast founder Conrad Thompson would have to pay up for it.
“I just took a bump. That’s like $20,000 right there. Thanks, Conrad!”
Punk ended the video by cutting another promo for Saturday. He knocked other wrestlers who have canceled their previous Starrcast bookings, which could be a shot at The Undertaker or Kurt Angle.
“I’m sorry to inform you all that I have to cancel my upcoming appearance at Starrcast,” Punk laughed. “That’s what everybody does, right? Everybody cancels. Well I’m not f–king canceling because I don’t cancel, because I do what I want. Nobody can tell me where to go, who to work for, who to sign autographs for, whether I have to smile to take pictures or not. I will smile because I am actually going to be happy to see you, but I’m not going to cancel unlike everybody else who’s ever done Starrcast. I will be there and I’ll see you Saturday.”
