CM Punk might be just weeks away from the biggest match of his WWE return, but thats not stopping him from making jokesespecially after getting locked inside another steel cage.
The Second City Saint was part of WWEs recent live event in Vienna, Austria, where he faced Gunther inside a steel cage for the World Heavyweight Championship. Spoiler alertit didnt go Punks way. After the match, Punk hopped on Instagram to thank the crowd and poke fun at his new streak of brutal matchups.
I strictly do cage matches now. No biggie. Thank You Vienna! Punk wrote in his story, clearly leaning into the trend of getting locked in with top-tier opponentsand coming out on the losing end.
This wasnt Punks first steel cage loss to Gunther. The two previously clashed in similar fashion, and Punk also dropped a cage match to Seth Rollins at Madison Square Garden after Roman Reigns decided to stick his nose in the action.
Still, despite the setbacks, Punk isnt letting the Ls ruin his momentum. Hes heading into WrestleMania 41 for the biggest match of his WWE comebacka triple threat against Reigns and Rollins that finally puts him in the main event spot hes chased for years.
The real question now? Will Punk keep joking about cage matchesor is he manifesting a new specialty?
Should CMPunk embrace the cage match gimmick full-time? Please share your thoughts and feedback in the comment section below.
