CM Punk and MJF were involved in yet another war of words on this week’s episode of AEW Dynamite.
During the show, the two men made several references to the recent WWE releases and WrestleMania. CM Punk came out to screw over MJF during his planned match with Shawn Dean. Punk hit Dean with a GTS, which resulted in Dean picking up the win by DQ and costing MJF his first AEW match of the year. Punk then went on to say that this will happen in all of MJF’s matches until he gives him a one-on-one match.
Following the segment, MJF grabbed a microphone and said that Punk is no Roddy Piper “because unlike you, he was talented enough to main event a WrestleMania. And if I am not shown the proper respect around here, maybe I’ll main event a ‘Mania too.”
Punk then responded with a brutal shot at WWE, saying,
“If you think the grass is so greener on the other side, be my guest. Go ahead. Leave. Main event Night Four of a buy one, get one free extravaganza, and then get released faster than you last in the sack. When you come back, I’ll still be here, and that ass kicking will be waiting for you!”
Holy burn!
MJF then announced that Wardlow will be facing CM Punk next week on AEW Dynamite.
