CM Punk failed to win his first televised match in WWE in 10 years, as he was the final man eliminated from the Men’s Royal Rumble match.
Punk suffered a torn triceps during the Royal Rumble match. He confirmed on this week’s RAW that he will miss WrestleMania 40 due to this injury.
The injury occurred during a DDT from Drew McIntyre, and it’s noted that this is a new injury, not a recurrence of a previous one. He tore the triceps in his left arm during this match, while he tore the triceps in his right arm in AEW.
Former WWE Superstar Ryback has had his issues with Punk. They feuded in 2012 & 2013 for the WWE Championship.
The Big Guy posted a video about Punk’s injury, where he claimed that Punk will blame McIntyre for the injury in the future, just like he blamed him a decade ago:
“Prior to Cody Rhodes eliminating CM Punk from the Royal Rumble, Drew McIntyre hit a Future Shock DDT on CM Punk which saw him tear his right tricep.
From my professional point of view, and by all other backstage accounts, Drew McIntyre delivered the move flawlessly, but we can expect at some future date for CM Punk to come out and label Drew McIntyre dangerous on a podcast episode.
Doctors have estimated for CM Punk to be out for 4 to 6 months with this current tricep tear, but as you saw prior the year in AEW he was out for 9 months, a very lengthy recovery time for that injury.
On behalf of myself, my Feed Me More LLC Brand, and Feed Me More Nutrition I just want to wish CM Punk, Phil, a very speedy recovery.”
