During a recent appearance on the Angi Taylor Show, AEW Superstar CM Punk commented on Thunder Rosa nearly making him cry prior to his AEW debut on Rampage, and more. You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On his return on Rampage being his greatest moment in wrestling and why he thinks he won his comeback: “Yeah, hands down. Because there’s a triumph in that moment. You know, there’s a washing away of sorrow in that moment. It’s very much like, ‘Hey, I won.’ You know what I mean? Like, I did things on my terms, and I didn’t compromise myself one bit, and I came back with my integrity intact. Now let’s get back to business and that business is having fun.”
On Thunder Rosa nearly making him cry: “I’m going to call out Thunder Rosa. I was a nervous wreck the whole time I’m pacing the hallway that can’t sit still. I can’t watch the monitor. I can’t talk to people, you know, I’m running around. Then from waiting to go out waiting for my music to hit and she just looks at me. She goes “Hey, welcome back!”. And like I almost just burst into tears. I was just like, you son of a b*tch. Yeah, so she got me pretty good with that. I don’t think that was her intention. But man, she got me.”
