 What's good? Josh Boyros back at again with another video. So I'm going to check out why CM Punk and Seth Rollins hate each other by top 10 wrestling. Um, we've all known the history between CM Punk and Seth Rollins and even just a self-tape set on interviews about each other or what not or on social media. There's no love loss between these two now that CM Punk is back in WWE. The story they can definitely tell that incorporates a little bit of realism to the angle can make this one of the best stories WWE tells in quite some time. And we've seen it with Seth Rollins before. Seth Rollins had issues with Matt Riddle, like real issues behind the scene stuff that we've heard about and they were able to turn those real life issues into a great storyline. And those are the best storylines in WWE where they blur the lines of what's real and what's not real. So we're going to check this out by top 10 wrestling man. Appreciate all the love and support you guys have shown on the channel. Let's see how far their hatred goes for each how deep their hatred runs for each other. CM Punk made his shocking return at WWE Survivor Series 2023. But right after he did this happened. And people have came out and it does seem like it is more of a work, but they're either kind of hyping up that angle of their hatred for each other. Because once again, if you got Michael Cole holding you back, yeah, that kind of lets you know this is more of a work than anything else. Seth Rollins can be seen being held back and seems legitimately angry about CM Punk returning to the company. And well, that's because if you didn't know, these two do not like each other behind the scenes have had a long standing rivalry with each other. However, while we all know that these two dislike each other, it's never really been known why they dislike each other. So today we're going to get into just that and we're going to talk about it. Why do Seth Rollins and CM Punk hate each other? Despite both having extensive careers on the independent scene, Seth Rollins and CM Punk wouldn't work together until they were both in the WWE when Seth Rollins was signed in 2010 and then called up to the main roster as part of the Shield in 2012. And during this time in the Shield and during this time that Seth Rollins and CM Punk shared in the WWE together, they worked together a lot. In fact, Seth Rollins credits him for helping him get his start in the company as the Shield's creation was helped by CM Punk, with Punk actually being the one to put Rollins name forward to be a part of it. Which is crazy when you think about it. CM Punk was the one that kind of was the one of the people that created the Shield and thought Seth Rollins was a perfect fit to be in that group, which ultimately, I mean, Shield is one of the greatest groups WWE has ever created and all of them each member has been respective champions and at the top of the company, even in other companies, you know, because of it. In their time in the WWE, Punk and Seth Rollins tagged together, tagged against each other, face each other in singles competition and were even number one and number two together in the 2014 Royal Rumble match, which would also of course end up being CM Punk's final match at the time before he departed the company initially. So what actually even happened to cause the breakdown in the relationship between the two, CM Punk was at the company. So how could it have happened? These two worked together all the time. They seemed fine when they worked together and now he's gone. So how do they hate each other now in 2023? Well, you might remember that when CM Punk departed the WWE, he would make an infamous podcast appearance where he spoke about all his issues with the WWE, leading to him leaving the company, including the time he worked with the Shield towards the end of his career. And he had this to say in particular about Seth Rollins, right? But there's also a very, I have a very strong philosophy about the business and I don't think, I don't think a guy like Seth Rollins or Dean Ambrose, I don't think they do. I don't think they look at it and question things and say to management like, well, why are we doing that? Now at the time this clip came out, there was no talk of any feud between the two and nobody really batted much of an eye at this clip. And now with CM Punk out of the company, there was no way these two would interact again, right? CM Punk said he's never returning to the WWE. Well, that was until CM Punk would return to the WWE in 2019. Well, not really. Yeah, you might remember that in 2019 and I remember this. Yeah. Like he was in the WWE, but not really. It was just really more so affiliate with Fox, but, you know, had ties to WWE. So it's one of those type of things where it's like, he wasn't really back and now he's really back. So it's crazy how things happen. It comes full circle. Punk would become the host of WWE Backstage, a WWE talk show airing on Fox. And as part of this deal, Punk wasn't technically an employee of the WWE, but rather an employee of Fox. And as a result of Punk being on WWE Backstage, the feud between him and Seth Rollins would become public again. Seth Rollins would start tweeting at CM Punk in the wake of the news of him being on backstage, seemingly trying to start an angle and create a match between the two, but CM Punk responded very harshly on WWE Backstage by saying the following. I want my journalistic integrity to be intact. So this isn't the show where you come on and shoot your little angles. Seth Rollins needs to stop tweeting and realize that sometimes it's better to be viewed as the fool and shut your mouth or open your mouth and remove all doubts. Ouch from CM Punk. Ouch. But Seth Rollins would actually reply calling him a coward on Twitter and then would elaborate even further in an interview responding a few weeks later by saying, you know, it's a good bit of banter back and forth. The bottom line is, the funny thing is for me, for a guy telling me that I need to look for relevancy, here's someone who's been in the doldrums for the last few years because he got his butt kicked on the octagon so bad that he didn't want to show his face anywhere. And now he shows back up on a WWE show. It's called WWE Backstage. You can say it's an FS1 show all you want, which it is and you might be paid by Fox, but that show doesn't exist without our company, the company that you left five years ago. So say whatever you want, play it however you want. That's what Punk always does. And after WWE Backstage, once again, they're back and forth, it's been heavily documented. So it's crazy to see how this is all playing out and how it may play out in the future. Stage got canceled due to COVID and Punk went to AEW. The beef between the two would fizzle away in the public eye and there was no interactions between the two until CM Punk got into a couple of fights backstage, fired from AEW. And then Seth Rollins was asked about Punk coming back to the WWE in a February 2023 interview where he says this. I know you're a Midwest boy with ROH roots. We don't know what's going on with CM Punk, but you guys have had some barn burners in WWE. Would you like to see Phil Brooks back in WWE? Oh, Philly Phil, stay away. Stay away. You cancer. Get away from me forever. Wow. Yeah. No, I don't like Phil. I don't like Phil. He's a jerk. Oh, did we just figure that out? Did we just figure that out? Everybody in the room is like, oh, no, did he say that? Yeah. No, he's a jerk. Come on. We figured it out over there. We knew it over here. No one back. Go do something else. Bye-bye. Bye-bye. See you later. Here's a spingroof and a muffin. There we go. That was an all out joke. He had the spin drift, didn't he? He had the spin drift and he was eating that. He was the muffin. He was the muffin. Yeah. He was in my face about my improv. No, no, no. Sorry. I won't be that harsh. Seth would also do it. I remember watching as Seth didn't give a damn. And once again, it's all come full circle. An interview where he would follow up on these comments about Punk. And he stated, that guy has given my career so much that it pains me to have to say bad things about him because he helped me out. He really did. Wow. He's been a good guy to me for a lot of my career. But for whatever reason, the past maybe six or seven years, he's in a different head space and we're not on the same page. To see what he's done and taken and taken and taken. And it's always been about him. I'm just not a fan. I'm not a fan. There's a place for a man. He's got a lot to give. I just wish his head was in the right spot. And I'm sure Seth Rollins was one. And that's crazy for him to say because he knows that, you know, seeing Punk is a very integral part of his career being where it is. He just hasn't liked the routes that he has taken. Granted, you can say the same thing about Seth Rollins because Seth Rollins has not, and I mean, has not been the most likable person. We've seen it on his rant on Twitter too. So, you know, you can kind of, you know, say, you know, well, Seth, you're not the most easiest to work with as well too. You know, there's good and bad to people everywhere and individuals and how they interact with certain people. So, you know, nobody's perfect. So, once again, this is just wild that we are really on the cusp of seeing this feud actually happening in a WWE ring of all places. Probably saying this, thinking that there was no chance that Punk would ever come back. But alas, we all saw what happened that survivors this past weekend. And Seth Rollins would give his first thoughts on the return when he would make reference to Punk in a promo on a live event the day Arthur survived by saying, I'm not gonna waste any more breath on somebody that's been gone for eight years. Someone who has done nothing but try and tear this place down. Instead, I'm gonna take my time and use my breath on talking about the people who've been here all along. That's everybody in the back who's made WWE the hottest ticket in town. And that's every single one of you who are here tonight. A good corporate reply from Seth Rollins. And he would also reference him in a promo on this week's Monday night at Raw where he called him a hypocrite. The feud between Punk and Rollins is definitely real, I think, behind the scenes. However, it's very clear that the WWE are playing into it and these two are currently setting themselves up for a feud on screen. Like, there's no way Seth Rollins was actually that angry about Punk. Like, he was being held back by Michael Cole. It was clearly... Like I just said. Just in character. Though, to be fair, Michael Cole is absolutely ripped to shreds. Regardless though, I'm excited for this feud. Rest in Fuse of the Bats. Shout out to Michael Cole, man. My boy out there losing weight. Out there being in shape. I love to see it. That's when they blurred a line and used real life in Storyline. So, CM Punk versus Seth Rollins. Wait, what did he say? Fuse of the Bats. When they blurred a line and used real life in Storyline. So, CM Punk versus Seth Rollins ought to be good. Bats. Hey, this was a great video, man. Definitely a great video. I don't think he says anything else afterwards. Let me go ahead and give this a like. As y'all should, too. Go ahead and give this a like. Subscribe to Top 10 Wrestling, man. If you haven't already, I'm already subscribed. This was a great one, man. This was a great one. This feud right here is the money-making feud. This feud potentially most likely will be the main event of Night One of WrestleMania as it should be depending on how they build it up because the back and forth on the promo side of things is going to be fantastic. We saw what Seth Rollins did with Cody Rhodes. How good that feud was. I can only imagine this is going to be cinematic. That's going to be so great. We got something great with Matt Riddle and Seth Rollins. That was fantastic what they did there. So I can only imagine what we're going to get with CM Punk and Seth Rollins. This is, man, this is fantastic. It feels good to be a WWE fan. It has been feeling good for quite some time, but just to know that WrestleMania season right around the corner and we may be in for one of the better WrestleMania seasons leading into WrestleMania in quite some time. And hell, the WrestleMania card itself may be one of the best shows we've seen as well. So comment down below. Let me know. Are you guys excited to see Seth Rollins, CM Punk have their back and forth, have their promo battles and eventually have their match for the World Heavyweight Championship because I do feel like that is right on the horizon and I do think it's going to be great. Let me know how y'all feel about that as well. But I appreciate all the love and support. Guys, y'all are on channel Road to 150K and I'm still here on speedy YouTube wrestling champion in the world.
