CM Punk is grateful to be on the run he’s having in WWE.
Fresh off his title win at Saturday Night’s Main Event, Punk spoke with Nick Olczyk during an intermission at a Utah Mammoth hockey game.
“Yeah, I won the title here last night and a happy accident, I get to come watch some hockey today. I’m enjoying my day off.
Punk was asked what it has been like being back in WWE. He used hockey to explain how he feels as a grizzled veteran, but said it’s been a dream run for him.
“Every day’s been like a dream. Honestly, every day is gratitude. Obviously, I love hockey so much, I draw the parallels between my wrestling career and hockey. And I’m the old guy in the room now,” CM Punk explained. “I’m happy I get to lace up my skates and have the privilege to walk the locker room and the halls with a lot of talented young stars and seeing all the fans, all the places I’ve been all around the world. Getting to revisit stuff and see the young and the old, we all love wrestling, it’s great. It’s been a dream.”
CM Punk teases what’s next for him
After speaking about his love affair with hockey and first impressions of the Utah Mammoth, Punk teased what’s next for him in the ring… or at least what’s next at the concession stand.
“What’s next? What’s next is the next shift. Second period, I might go check what kind of food you guys have, send some pictures to my wife. If you guys got some crazy nachos or something, she’ll be excited,” Punk said. “I’m on my way after the game to Albuquerque for Monday Night RAW, so tune in, Netflix, RAW, and let’s go Mammoth?
