Roman Reigns had a heated message for CM Punk ahead of their clash at WWE WrestleMania 42.
With only a few days left for their World Heavyweight Championship match in the main event of WrestleMania 42 Night 2, Roman Reigns blasted CM Punk for saying he’s been coddled by WWE management. In a video posted on his X/Twitter account, Reigns claimed that Punk is not on the same level as him, and also took a subtle shot at his failed UFC run.
“You defended the title three times. You’ve had it, what, the whole year? You’re not a fighting champion, you’re not even a fighter. We’ve seen how that went. Coddled by management because I’m money? And they’ve known that since the beginning, I told them? I’m an unsigned billion-dollar check. Go back and find it. It’s in the archives,” Roman Reigns began.
“You don’t have that type of confidence because you’re not the type of man I am,” Roman Reigns continued. “You’re not cut from the same fabric as me. It blows my mind that you think we’re fu**ing equals. In which way? It’s only gonna take the first couple of minutes for the whole world to see there’s no way we could ever be on the same level.
Roman Reigns says the whole industry coddles CM Punk
Speaking further, Roman Reigns claimed the whole wrestling industry coddles CM Punk just because some internet marks loved him from the beginning. Reigns then sent a final message telling Punk to keep his name out of his mouth and claimed that his reign will end on Sunday.
“Coddled. The whole industry coddles you just by having you in it. You talk about the old timers, those were tough guys. We’ve seen what happens when you try to be a tough guy. We put our whole reputation, the whole art form, on the line for you because what? 100,000 internet marks love you from the beginning? Roman Reigns said.
“Let’s go back to your journey days when you were on the indies. It was the shts and embarrassment. There’s not a legend in my family that respects you. You’re the reason we don’t let Marks in the business. Keep my fu*ing name out of your mouth. On Sunday, it ends for you,” Roman Reigns concluded.
