VIDEO: Chris Jericho Responds to Comments Made by CM Punk During Colt Cabana’s Podcast

December 1, 2014

Chris Jericho has released the video below, which features him responding to comments made by CM Punk on Colt Cabana’s recent podcast interview.

The following is a brief recap:

-For those of you who missed the Punk interview, Punk claimed Chris Jericho contacted him after he left WWE, but then insinuated Jericho might have had a hidden agenda in place which was to get Punk to tell his story on the “Talk is Jericho” podcast.

-Jericho responded by saying that he and Punk are friends, and that while he did ask him to appear on “Talk is Jericho,” it was in December prior to Punk leaving WWE. He said at no other time did he ask Punk to appear on his podcast.

-Jericho said him and Punk had a date setup for Punk to appear on the podcast, but Punk pulled out because he didn’t have anything positive to say about pro wrestling.

-Jericho said he texted Punk several times after Punk left WWE, but it was never about getting him to talk. Jericho said others were trying to get information from Punk but he was not one of them. With regards to Punk walking out on WWE, Jericho said he can somewhat understand Punk’s decision because he too was in a similar situation with WWE back in 2005:
