WWE RAW Superstar CM Punk was impressed by the performance of The Rock during the Final Boss’ first wrestling match in close to a decade.
At WWE WrestleMania 40 (Night One), The Rock teamed with Roman Reigns to defeat Cody Rhodes and Seth Rollins.
On the “WWE on ESPN” post-show, Punk gave his thoughts on the Brahma Bull’s performance in what was billed as the biggest tag team match in WrestleMania history. He said,
“I thought he looked great. As someone who wrestled him ten years ago, the same questions were raised. Everyone wanted to know what he was going to look like, how his endurance would be.
“While there’s a significant difference between a tag match or returning to face the champion, I thought he did well tonight. I thought he looked really good. He won the match, what more can I say?”
Because of the win, tonight’s Undisputed WWE Universal Championship match will be contested under ‘Bloodline Rules’ which means that anything goes.
Tonight’s title match between Roman Reigns and Cody Rhodes will also be Rhodes’ final shot at Reigns, an edict put in place by the Final Boss.
