During last night’s post-AEW Revolution media scrum, an emotional CM Punk commented on his Dog Collar match with MJF, referring to it as a “love letter to Roddy Piper.”
You can check out some highlights from the media scrum below:
On his match with MJF at Revolution: “Why am I creating these moments? It’s a love letter to Roddy Piper. During my career, I had a couple of good Dog Collar Matches with some good people. It just kinda’ made sense to tell the story. I love Roddy Piper, I don’t think that’s a secret. MJF loves Roddy Piper, too. I think it’s important that while telling stories, you can always go back to the bedrock of pro wrestling.”
On if he wants to have another Dog Collar Match in his career: “Hopefully not [laughs]. They’re hard. I think Dog Collar Matches are stupid dangerous, I’m happy that I still have all my teeth. They’re very brutal. It’s hard for fans to understand truly how brutal they are. I think most people have been punched in the face once or twice in their lives, so they can kinda’ relate to that. But having 10-20 feet of loggers chain attached to your neck – it sucks.”
