• 2x WWE Hall of Famer Says CM Punk Is “Done,” Calls Him Slow and Criticizes Wrestling in a T-Shirt

Kevin Nash discussed World Heavyweight Champion CM Punk’s current in-ring work, offering a blunt assessment that centered on Punk’s physical decline and overall presentation on WWE television.

Speaking on his Kliq This podcast, the 2-time WWE Hall of Famer questioned whether Punk is still capable of performing at the level expected of a World Heavyweight Champion, and his criticism focused heavily on what he saw during Punk’s recent RAW match.

Nash pointed directly to Punk’s movement and striking, saying, “I watched Punk in the main event of that match last Monday… his punches looked really slow. He looks slow.”

He was particularly critical of Punk wrestling in a T-shirt while positioned as the top champion, framing it as symbolic of a larger problem. “If you’re the heavyweight champion of the WWE and you wrestle in a T-Shirt… Ouch.”

Nash went further, openly questioning whether Punk should still be in a featured role at all. “I think it’s time for him. I think he’s done.” He followed that statement by suggesting a clear booking direction, arguing that WWE should move forward with its younger talent rather than continuing to rely on Punk in marquee positions.

That led Nash to Bron Breakker, whom he believes should decisively defeat Punk. “I think Bron should beat him,” Nash said, reinforcing his stance that the future of the company should take priority over maintaining Punk’s status. In Nash’s view, Punk’s current performances no longer justify protecting him at the expense of emerging stars.

• Mick Foley Calls Out 2 Pages For Spreading Fake Stories About His WWE Relationship

Mick Foley recently announced that he’s ending his relationship with WWE due to U.S. President Donald Trump. Some pages made false stories about Foley after this, which led to the Hardcore Legend issuing the following statement:

“STOPPING A LIE.

An Instagram page called @itswrestlinglover and a Facebook page called ‘Wrestling Corner’ have posted a completely false story about me being furious that WWE is continuing to use my wrestling footage. That’s simply a lie. It’s WWE’s footage and I’m very proud of it. End of story.”

Foley later wrote:

“@itswrestlinglover has removed the post and apologized. It turns out he was duped by a post he saw on Facebook from a page called Wrestling Corner. They have apparently shared a number of false stories about me recently, and I would appreciate if they followed his lead.

Now more than ever it’s important to look a little deeper into stories we read online before sharing them as if they’re true.”
