Backstage News On Promo That CM Punk Cut On This Week's WWE Raw

On this week's WWE Monday Night Raw, CM Punk cut an emphatic "pipe bomb" promo where the lines of work-shoot were blurred.

According to BodySlam+, Punk was given multiple "bullet points" of topics to hit during his segment but he was not given a structured script to follow. In the end, Punk ended up cutting a nearly 15 minute promo where he brought up several people directly and indirectly including The Rock, Vince McMahon, Pat McAfee, Ari Emanuel as well as once again drawing attention to WWE's high ticket prices.

The report added that Punk was also told to further the agenda pushed by Cody Rhodes' promo on Smackdown the week before and use the platform to speak on behalf of all the wrestlers regarding topics that have frustrated them.
