The CM Punk-Drew McIntyre storyline has always been the most intense brainchild of the creative since Punk’s return in 2023. From stealing the former AEW star’s bracelet to dragging up his family, the Scottish Psychopath lived up to his name by showcasing the lengths he goes to settle scores.

The Chicago-based star has retorted in trademark CM Punk manner as he dished out his savage remarks in his promos making this an extremely personal feud. As the saga continues to unfold on Raw tonight, Punk emerges from under the ring to give McIntyre a rough rub, interrupting his scathing promo.
