WWE Issues Official Statement Regarding CM Punk’s Fan Altercation on Raw Last Night

By Nick Paglino

CM PunkIn response to CM Punk's altercation with a fan on Raw last night, WWE has issued the following statement:

During last night’s Raw televised event, WWE Superstar CM Punk exited the ring into the stands as part of the show.  WWE security was unfortunately not in the appropriate place at the time.  Given CM Punk’s persona as a ‘bad guy,’ fans were naturally heckling him, but unfortunately a few fans began shoving him and one struck in him in the kidney and on the back.  WWE regrets that proper security measures were not in place, and CM Punk apologizes for reacting in the heat of the moment.  Other than this isolated incident, WWE always provides proper security to ensure the safety of our fans and our performers.
