Seth Rollins Keeps Feud with CM Punk Alive at WWE House Show in Toronto – Seth Rollins has been weaving CM Punk into their ongoing storyline since the night of Punk’s return at WWE Survivor Series after the Men’s WarGames Match.
In the storyline, Rollins reacted intensely, expressing frustration and hostility towards Punk by cursing and gesturing angrily. Their confrontation escalated on the night Punk announced his Raw brand affiliation, exchanging verbal jabs and setting the stage for Punk’s entry into the Men’s Royal Rumble match.
On the upcoming Day 1 edition of Raw, Rollins is slated to defend the World Heavyweight Title against Drew McIntyre. As of now, Punk is not listed to appear on the show.
At a recent Friday house show in Toronto, Canada, Rollins participated in a triple threat match and directed some choice words towards Punk after the bout, further fueling their ongoing narrative.
“What do y’all think, he’s going to pop through that curtain tonight? He ain’t going to come tonight because, you know what, he doesn’t give a damn about y’all. Hey, I’ve been honest,” Rollins said. “I’ve said this about CM Punk from day one. CM Punk only gives a damn about CM Punk. But hey, you know what? You’ve all paid your hard-earned money to come here and chant for the dude who isn’t going to show up.”
Rollins told CM Punk fans to get their chants out of their system, and they did just that.
Here are the results from the show:
- Becky Lynch defeated Zoey Stark
- Kofi Kingston defeated Ludwig Kaiser
- WWE Women’s Tag Team Titles Match – Kayden Carter & Katana Chance (c) retain over Chelsea Green & Piper Niven
