WWE Hall Of Famer Claims CM Punk Is “Not A Nice Person”

By James Holder. Published 15th September 2022.

A WWE Hall of Famer has claimed that CM Punk is not a nice person, accusing him not not showing them respect when they worked together.

CM Punk has found himself at the centre of controversy for the best part of a month. After the star went off script to call out Hangman Adam Page on an episode of Dynamite, he unleashed a verbal assault during the post-All Out media scrum on a number of key AEW figures.

This sparked a brawl backstage which saw fists and chairs being thrown. The incident led to all involved being suspended as the melee is being investigated by a third-party.

Road Dogg worked with CM Punk in WWE in early 2014 and has previously stated that it wasn’t a good experience, branding the star “hard to work with.”

Speaking on a recent episode of his podcast ‘Oh… You Didn’t Know,’ the WWE Hall of Famer again addressed Punk commenting that he is “not a nice person.” He went on to accuse the star of not showing him respect when they worked together, adding that he thinks he could have beaten him in a fight.

“He’s not a nice person. He’s not good. I don’t know. If you’ve been friends with somebody for so long and all of a sudden y’all are in a lawsuit over stuff and you can’t just talk, I don’t understand it. But that’s not the straw that broke the camel’s back. For me, it was when we actually had to work with him in our 2014 run and seeing the attitude that he had towards me and Billy.

Granted, we were not Hall of Famers at the time, but we were on our way to be for sure, and we were The New Age Outlaws. At least we’d been there as long as he had, and he showed us no respect. He showed us disrespect. I mean, that was that. You don’t get a second chance at that. I’m showing you respect. Why aren’t you showing me respect?”

“But the truth of it is, dude, respect is a two way street, and if you don’t give it, you dang sure ain’t getting it, not from me. You got one shot at that with me and Billy. He talked to us negatively. If I hadn’t had a job there, like if I wouldn’t have been newly hired, I would have probably fought him. I feel relatively confident that I would have come out on top and this was prior to his training. This was prior to his karate training.”

CM Punk is set for a lengthy period on the side-lines regardless of his status with AEW after undergoing surgery to repair a serious triceps injury.
