CM Punk and Seth Rollins Brawl to Kick Off WWE RAW in Boston – The December 16 edition of WWE RAW opened with fireworks as CM Punk kicked off the show live from the TD Garden in Boston, Massachusetts. Punk wasted no time addressing the crowd and his ongoing issues with Seth Rollins, setting the stage for what would become a chaotic segment.
Punk began by joking with the crowd, warning them to be careful about chanting his name because “someone might not like it.” He poked fun at a fan wearing New York gear before admitting he was in a bad mood. Punk referenced Rollins’ comments from two weeks ago, where Seth claimed Punk had “ghosted” him in the past. Punk dismissed that, saying he isn’t dwelling on the past but looking toward the future, one where it seems inevitable that he and Rollins will collide in the ring.
Taking verbal jabs at Rollins, Punk compared him to Liberace and Elton John, saying that dressing flashy doesn’t make him an icon like those legends, nor does idolizing CM Punk make Rollins the man himself. Punk then declared Seth as his “failure,” claiming that a bad student is the result of a bad teacher. He vowed to give Rollins the wrestling lesson he has been begging for — free of charge.
Seth Rollins, sitting in the crowd, began chanting alongside the audience before grabbing a mic to respond. Seth didn’t mince words, calling Punk an “ass****” and reminding him that while Punk walked away from WWE, Rollins carried the company and made it stronger. Seth took another personal shot, proudly stating that he has more WrestleMania main events than Punk ever will.
The tension boiled over when Punk left the ring and confronted Rollins in the crowd. The two began trading punches as officials rushed to separate them. Punk, undeterred, leaped over the barricade, plowing through the chaos to attack Rollins once again. Rollins retaliated with a dive off the ring steps, and the brawl spilled back into the ring.
Officials struggled to maintain order, pulling the two apart multiple times. Punk was eventually escorted through the crowd, but Seth wasn’t finished. Rollins taunted Punk, only for another skirmish to erupt as the brawl reignited in the audience.
The segment ended with both men being forcibly separated, leaving the RAW crowd electric and clearly hungry for more. This explosive confrontation undoubtedly escalates their brewing rivalry, making their eventual showdown feel inevitable.
