CM Punk Fined for Actions on RAW – During the August 26 episode of WWE RAW, CM Punk found himself in trouble after attacking Drew McIntyre and members of WWE’s security team with a leather strap. The incident occurred at the Amica Mutual Pavilion in Providence, Rhode Island, where Punk assaulted McIntyre from behind, igniting a brawl that quickly escalated. Punk then turned his attention to the security personnel, using the strap to beat them down as well.
Following the chaotic segment, WWE RAW General Manager Adam Pearce took to X (formerly Twitter) to announce that CM Punk would be fined for his actions. Pearce stated, “CM Punk has been fined an undisclosed amount for assaulting security with the leather strap that will be used in his Strap Match against Drew McIntyre at WWE Bash In Berlin.” This continues Pearce’s recent trend of issuing disciplinary fines to WWE Superstars for misconduct.
The Strap Match between CM Punk and Drew McIntyre is set to take place at WWE Bash In Berlin 2024 on Saturday, August 31, at the Uber Arena in Berlin, Germany. The match promises to be intense, especially after the volatile events on Raw.
