The deep-seated animosity between CM Punk and Seth Rollins has once again taken center stage, with the two top WWE Superstars continuing to clash both on and off-screen. What began as a war of words has steadily escalated into one of the most intense real-life rivalries in modern wrestling — and according to Rollins, it’s far from over.
CM Punk Called a “Bad Dude” by Seth Rollins
Appearing on the Up and Adams podcast, Seth Rollins didn’t hold back when asked about his long-standing issues with CM Punk. Speaking bluntly, Rollins said, “Punk is not good for what we do. He’s a bad dude. He’s not a good dude.”
This isn’t the first time Rollins has voiced his disdain for Punk. In past interviews, he went so far as to call Punk a “cancer” to the locker room, a label that drew significant attention from fans and fellow wrestlers alike. Now, Rollins has doubled down on that sentiment, making it clear that he doesn’t want Punk anywhere near WWE.
“I beat him in the main event of WrestleMania. I don’t want him anywhere near this (Money In The Bank) contract. I’ve dealt with CM Punk for far too long. Work smarter, not harder,” Rollins continued.
“This guy shouldn’t even be in my wind space. I want him gone. I want him out of here. He doesn’t deserve a spot at a high-profile match like this.”
Seth Rollins Has Important Wins Over CM Punk As Of Late
WWE has leaned into the real-life tension, featuring both Superstars in high-profile segments and matches.
On a recent episode of Saturday Night’s Main Event, Rollins teamed with Bron Breakker to take on CM Punk and Sami Zayn in a heated tag team bout. The match ended with Rollins and Breakker securing the win after a surprise return from Bronson Reed, who ambushed Punk and handed Rollins the upper hand.
While it remains unclear whether WWE intends to schedule a one-on-one match between the two at a major Premium Live Event, fans have been vocal in demanding one more one-on-one match between them.
