I remember when ALL of wrestling felt like this. Even though it was scripted, the characters and their animosity always felt real. Glad to see HHH, Seth and Punk bringing back that incredible vibe.
bro this is nostalgia right here. the built up, unlike any other returns, hasnt been like this hidden. feels like 90's all over again. seth vs punk will be legendary
Well Seth in real life, doesn't like Punk and wasn't shy of outright saying he didn't want him coming back to WWE and thst due him getting fired, that everyone finally understood why CM Punk was a cancer. Even AJ Styles doesn't like CM Punk and CM Punk and AJ been throwing shots at each other for years, with CM Punk even bashing AJ for his Christian faith since Punk is an atheist. Seth even admitted he and Cody still have a degree of heat to this day. And I don't think Cody is happy that CM Punk now took his shine in both AEW and WWE. Eventually people will get over their obsession over Cody winning the belt and they will want CM Punk to win. But both Seth and Cody realize business comes first, so they gonna put their feelings aside and be professionals and not risk getting fired because they have the most cushy sitautions in their life right now. It's amazing how we average common people have to do this daily at our jobs but somehow fans are having their brains explode at wrestlers having to do the same thing 😂😂😂
@@2Good2BeTrue45seth is lying lol. He's keeping kayfabe Seth bought cody a cake and get along fine backstage. He was also baiting the punk return months ago with his interviews.
Love how even Cole was out there in the midst, you dont see that often. It looked chaotic, like no one really knew what to do, there wasnt fake security guards, and Rollins was as pissed as you'll ever see him. So well done.
This is gonna be a great storyline. CM Punk basically made the shield, Seth Rollins always felt like he was over shadow by Punk, they have unfinished business and I’m here for it.
Lol what ?, that's not at all what this is about, he literally mentioned he hates punk in a recent interview, considering punk was out of AeW by that point, I think they already had worked things out about him joining, in all honesty I've got no clue if they're going to connect shield back to this...but I'm sure just the way they did with Matt Riddle and Seth, they're going to take it the route of Seth hates him but respects him, depending on if they wrestle for the championship or not, honestly don't see punk winning the championship in his first ppv back, Mania is a different story though, punk hasn't won a Rumble either so, maybe Seth wins the first match punk wins Rumble sets things up..probably
@@edgesucks09sounds good! don't forget roman reigns also said that he doesn't like cm punk at all but he is willing to put everything behind because business and work comes 1st.
@@kingblxckheart Honestly if Punk loses to Seth then I don't think they're going to do punk vs Roman, maybe they might do a punk vs Roman instead of punk vs Seth first, unless Priest cashes in then the Seth vs punk match can happen without any qualms, but it seems like Seth is going to retain until Mania then leave for a long period of time like randy did to rehab his back, but honestly it does look like Cody vs Roman is going to be the match where Roman drops the championship
bro it just might be Roman has nothing more to prove Mox already had the feud Seth is the only one actively feuding with those from AEW, and we know how personal his feud felt with Cody@@zoeyl4d939
Lol, Seth can't hold up a mic against CM Punk, CM Punk made John Cena look like face Roman Reigns on the mic. He legit got under Cena and Triple H's skin. Held his own with The Rock. Who TF is Seth Rollins to compete with that?
@smdownh9 No? That's the whole point of not putting it as part of the show; you let the fans show it off the broadcast so it gives the aura of it being a shoot.
I don't think so. Seth was making references and dropping catchphrases of Punk when he was feuding with Nakamura. I doubt with all those stuff going he'll be surprised to see CM Punk especially in Chicago.
Incorrect, according to insiders they all knew Punk was going to make an entrance at the end of the event. Do you really think that they did not know we was back with the WWE and just showed up out of nowhere? That is not how companies work and the WWE sets the stage for these things weeks and months in advance. They ALL knew he was returning at the end of the show, now some of them may not care for him but it is all a work as they have to work together as employees, it is not the wild west.
@@MiketheratguyMultimedia The only ones who knew prior to the event were Cody and Randy. Hunter told Randy out of respect for his big return and Randy was fine with it. Cody had to know due to the finish (because why would you have Cody get the pinfall when it's Randy's big return night) and also due to the fact that he was in their plans for the title picture (at this point the Wrestlemania stuff wasn't finalized to what it ended up becoming). Rhea only knew when she was in gorilla waiting to come out with the briefcase tease. There's another angle of the entire sequence from ringside where you can see her during the post-match celebration communicating it to the others (Calls Dom over to the other side of the ring, Jay leans in at one point and she says something to him, Sami is rattling the cage back and forth and that's when she tells him.) Seth really had no idea and has since admitted this was the most unprofessional moment of his career. He says something to Rhea or Damien right before Punks music hit and looked as if it was a "ya'll playing a gag on me or something" -type reaction
@@Kneelift2099 nah nah seth is good on the mic, he never really got the chance but he really delivers when it's needed, and seth is def better than punk when it comes to wrestling skills
Punk could easily main event against Roman. Paul Heyman being the advocate for both in the past would be good for the story, as would Punk having his hand in Roman’s start to his main roster career.
@user-py9pt2ic9sI doubt it...have you watched an AEW show recently? It’s nothing but dead crowds, garbage matches, cold feuds, and locker-room drama. Cody had creative freedom in AEW; a company he helped found. When he was there, he gave them everything he had. When he left - which coincidentally signified the beginning of the end of AEW - it was for good.
Triple H didn't tell any of the Superstars Punk was returning. Even though he had an epic return, this kinda over shadowed the great work these Superstars put together for that match
when even Michael Cole and Graves are sick of the shit that hasn't even started yet (Even Cody, the most professional guy around looks angry) this isn't a work at all.
Just remember, Rollins got where he was when punk left. Like cena got to where he was when Brock left. If Rollins was to vs punk, punk might get the belt on a sliver platter
@@antmck99Feel like Seth knows that, and as soon as he saw Punk, he knew he was probably getting a WrestleMania main event for a World Championship, and it ain't Roman's. Saw that reign slip right away.
@@FredFredFaz From what I can remember, Riddle and Seth never mended bridges, just kinda left it at the door when they went to work. I think a similar thing is gonna happen with Punk and Seth just with a little more security present.
Come on guys, you really think that WWE management wouldn't go to Rollins (who is one of their top stars) and give him a heads up? Especially considering the "Punk is a Cancer" comment that went viral months ago? Rollins is a pro. This is WWE doing the groundwork off an angle. Total work.
@@twk8520 yep we don't want chairs flying again 😂 Honestly was expecting Randy to betray Cody and do one of the best feuds ever but Punk coming back is a shock and a mystery.
@@Altered-Beast relax. Unlike aew, WWE has a fucking structure in place so no wrestlers fuck around. There's proper management in place . I just hope everyone squashes beef if there's any and enjoy wrestling
You gotta remember Seth vs Punk has been a thing even before Punk came back to Wrestling. This match has been talked about since like 2018. So the fact punk returned tonight and Seth is upset. I see this as a way to turn this into a Fued going into mania.
This is a total work. They are using the heat from the way he was fired from AEW. It's smart as hell to have the guy who verbally trashed him to be pissed... who also has the title. Punk will win the Rumble and challenge Seth Rollins for the Title at WrestleMania. It makes for REALLY GOOD TELEVISION
CM Punk and Seth both have real life beef. This was not a work. Seth said bad things about Punk in interviews and on twitter. You brought this on yourself ROLLINS.
This is most definitely a work. Rollins is a pure professional. He wouldn’t do this if he didn’t have the all clear from Triple H to do so. They’re for sure building up a future feud between Punk and Rollins using some real life heat they had.
@@RANDYORTONRKO12I mean Seth might legitimately hate punk but that doesn't mean he won't do business with him. Wwe is most interesting when the line between reality and fiction starts to blend.
@@karthiknarayanan3705 funny thing is, no one knew punk was coming back not even the staff, this was supposed to be very hush hush, that’s why sami was clearly trying to stop Seth
It was a genuine surprise and I am all in for it. I am pretty sure that if they put their beef aside CM Punk can elevate Rollins as the ultimate baby face. Also, honestly, I am already tired of Rollins reign after less than one year…we need some spice on the ring.
@@bb-gc2txthere’s rumors Drew was being lowballed by WWE and Fightful reported talent was made aware before main event punk was debuting so no he’s not making shit up and it’s a good observation. Drew probably left before punk came out so he wouldn’t get physical with him. If he was that hurt he didn’t stop for medical as reports are he slammed his locker room door got dressed fast and ran out of the arena. I had a coworker who worked WWE production part time before retiring being Covid. That sign the camera guy gave Drew was a legit they want you the fuck backstage. Fightful reported one talent was visible upset when told about punk prior to match that could be either Seth or Drew.
What makes it seem real are the commentators being the ones trying to cool him down, like when do they ever get involved in things like this? This ambiguity about whether its real or a work though is wrestling at its best.
Cole inserting himself to stop Rollins is def a sign it wasn't a work. Cause why would they do that if Cole isn't inserted into this fued? Looked like he geniuenly had to hold Seth back
The wrestlers were unaware Punk was returning tonight. HHH kept it under wraps. Seth Rollins is geniunly pissed and this upcomming work is going to be fire 🔥
Seth actually hates punk in real life and said he hated working with him years ago in wwe and said he’s such a jerk to everyone behind the scenes and he even said punks a cancer that he needs to stay away and never come back.
Biggest mistake to let Fragile Phil back into WWE. There is a lot of bad blood between him and the entire locker room. He was a little B&$#@ on his run with the WWE. He was a little B&$#@ when he tried MMA, and he was a little B$%$# in AEW. If wrestling was legit. Every man on the roster could kick his but, and several of the women could to. You know people higher up than HHH brought him back, because Hunter could not stand him when he was in WWE. They will regret bringing him back.
I steadfastly was not in the conspiracy theorist camp when Punk and the Bucks exploded, but *this* has work written all over it. Seth is way too smart and professional not to know that he'd be all over social media if he legitimately went unhinged like this; it's 1000% deliberate.
Untill he cries, tries to destroy the company, and ultimately quits. AGAIN. Enjoy it while you can, I give it less than a year. There's a pattern with him.
I don’t know if this is real or not because I know a lot of superstars really don’t like Punk, but I love how Mami is just taking a seat watching the show like the rest of us😂😂😂
If they're smart, they'll bring Roman out AFTER everyone else has had their moment with Punk first. Let all the little puppies bark, before the big dog comes in and marks his territory.
This is a valuable lesson to everyone. One you finally get a great opportunity there's always haters....I Love It...hate Seth hate but you will appreciate the greatness of PUNK
"I know your anger, I know your dreams I've been everything you want to be" well... i mean punk has been using this song before seth was even on the roster but i like how you could put the lyrics into context here lol
If you watch the ring when Punk comes out you can see Seth start freaking out and kicking the ropes. I'd think it was a work if it weren't for Cole holding him back. Cole doesn't do that kind of thing on camera.
Seth is selling it. Doing good job too. He may not like him but respects punk because his honesty. Saying he didn't want punk back was a lie. Just building up the hype for his major pop return 🙌
Unlike AEW, WWE doesnt assume everyone knows rollins comments on punk in online interviews. Thats why they didnt show it on camera this is for the people who know and I'm sure will lead to a fued. Do people really believe if seth did want to get to punk 3 guys barely pulling him back would stop him?
@jonathanscott3914 How about the fact that Rollins is a company guy and far too professional to react like this unless it’s a work. And if your top star on raw hated your new signing, wouldn’t you send the new guy to smack down
This isn’t the first time they done something like this. Roman getting pinned by Jey off air he was on the floor screaming in anger. Seth stunt is just an extra content for those that when to the show live.
@@thomasdupree4529 No it's Hunter's way of saying this is WWE get along or leave. After all the cuts anyone can be out of a job tomorrow. HHH has also was never worried about controversy. His best friend is Shawn Michael's all time king of drama.
Seth doesnt like CM Punk in real life so Seth emotion you see here is real...I wouldnt be surprise if this 2nd go lots people in the locker room will hate CM Punk and he will be fire like he did at Aew twice
It’s work! Everyone in that ring knew CM PUNK was gonna return at the end of the match. You would know if it was real they wouldn’t have Michael Cole trying to hold Rollins back 😆.
What I'm thinking is that some people knew Punk was possibly being signed or in the midst of a deal, but that they didn't know he was going to come out tonight at the end of the match. Maybe the spotlight being taken away from the win is what set him off. It's hard to see this as a work because it wasn't filmed for the camera. Only makes the whole thing more interesting moving forward.
You know that wrestlers don't only work for cameras, right? There's a crowd, so there's always word of mouth, and every person has a camera nowadays, so odds are that people would film this and post it. Kayfabe isn't dead, just evolved.
I think they're playing off of trying to make this fued seem as a real as possible, and that means not capturing this moment on crispy WWE tv and letting social media do it's thing. Often times what generates the buzz is the unknown or the things we "weren't supposed to see". It's a work and it may very well lead to Seth vs Punk at 40.
Even backstage, Seth was said to have been looking for Punk while being held back by Triple H and Michael Cole. They're also saying that when Drew McIntyre left he was upset and that it was related to Punk as well
@@ansufati1678 Quite a few people feel he is a pretty toxic person. There's a reason he was fired from AEW and WWE(on his wedding day no less lol). None of the talent knew he was coming either. Anyway, we'll see after Raw how everybody reacts
Of course this is a work. lol. They are giving him (Punk) storylines from the get go. Ones that have context & meaning! Wrestlemania is calling. And this next year’s show will really be “immortal”.
Nah I thinks it’s a real reaction cause you can see Michael Cole had too hold Seth back and plus Cm Punk have been trashing the company for a decade & Seth who really love this company don’t appreciate that
Punk and Rollins are friends this is all to set up a feud. It started when punk was on back stage and then it just never happend cuz of Covid. If not for Covid I bet punk would have been back in WWE off the backstage angle. Punk is the one who made the shield .
I feel like they conflicting emotions. Its like they want to be happy but are cautious about it. Then theres seth whos acting like the heartbroken ex who hasn't gotten over the break up yet. 😂
There are so many great Wrestler who work hard the last Years and bring WWE back too greatness. Than many of them make a great show. After that, the Snake comes to your House. I totally understand why Rollins and others are pissed off.
Deal was done mid-day, I don't think he had enough time to tell anybody. I think everyone, including Seth, had no idea this was happening, and anyone that didn't like Punk was completely furious. Hopefully, they can mend fences and do business. Still an incredible night.
@@1e_tard Apparently, Drew McIntyre was also pissed off and immediately stormed out of the arena. That's all I've seen reported so far. I knew Punk and Rollins had heat, but I don't know why Drew would be upset. Kind of odd.
Not watched Raw in over a decade... this will bring me back to check it out. As long as it's not as lame as the Summer of Punk. WWE have a habit of dropping the ball on overhyped storylines. Well, least they did while Vince was in charge... I will be watching Raw with fresh eyes though. Hope they can keep my attention this time.
Makes you wonder if what H was saying last night at the press conference was directed at SR when he said “People change, I’m not the same person I was 10 years ago and Punk isn’t the same person he was 10 years ago”
Actually people, if there is real heat between Rollins and Punk, there will never be a match between them, until it's resolved, so if Punk plans on sticking around, this would be a work. However ALL the wrestlers in that last match have every right to pissed that Punks return happened after their big match. That really wasn't a good time for his return, that should have happened before that match, so the fan's would be more hyped going into the beginning of the match, not to mention, taking away from Ortons return. But I'm sure others have their own opinions.

@@antmck99Feel like Seth knows that, and as soon as he saw Punk, he knew he was probably getting a WrestleMania main event for a World Championship, and it ain't Roman's. Saw that reign slip right away.
@@FredFredFaz From what I can remember, Riddle and Seth never mended bridges, just kinda left it at the door when they went to work. I think a similar thing is gonna happen with Punk and Seth just with a little more security present.
So I've heard that there's beef between Rawlins and punk. Can somebody tell me why? what happened between the two that started the heat / drama?
Imagine the next raw segment, seth kicks down triple h door and demands a explanation for hiring punk.
And spews all his beef with punk only for punk to answer back and have the beat each other
They either working the shit outta us or the things Seth said were from the heart
Cody and seth has someone to make history on Monday night raw
we need the unedited wwe docu about this 😅
Come on guys, you really think that WWE management wouldn't go to Rollins (who is one of their top stars) and give him a heads up? Especially considering the "Punk is a Cancer" comment that went viral months ago? Rollins is a pro. This is WWE doing the groundwork off an angle.
Total work.
Not if they were desperate to keep punk coming in quiet. No leaks no chance of it getting out.
HHH said that only a few people knew about his return.
So Punk might end up being a locker room morale killer.
@@Altered-Beast I'd be more worried about an AEW locker room fight again. I wouldn't be surprised if HHH is having a group sit down.
@@twk8520 yep we don't want chairs flying again 😂
Honestly was expecting Randy to betray Cody and do one of the best feuds ever but Punk coming back is a shock and a mystery.
@@Altered-Beast relax. Unlike aew, WWE has a fucking structure in place so no wrestlers fuck around. There's proper management in place . I just hope everyone squashes beef if there's any and enjoy wrestling
You gotta remember Seth vs Punk has been a thing even before Punk came back to Wrestling. This match has been talked about since like 2018. So the fact punk returned tonight and Seth is upset. I see this as a way to turn this into a Fued going into mania.
Nah mania is Punk vs Roman
@@MirzaBaig77777 nah I doubt it’s Roman and Punk. It’s probably gonna be Seth vs Punk and then Cody vs Roman.
Legend or not, Punk can't just resume His spot as WWE Champion.
The wrestlers looked baffled. Like they weren't expecting Punk to return and steal the show
This is a total work. They are using the heat from the way he was fired from AEW. It's smart as hell to have the guy who verbally trashed him to be pissed... who also has the title. Punk will win the Rumble and challenge Seth Rollins for the Title at WrestleMania. It makes for REALLY GOOD TELEVISION
Thank you for getting it. Seth is actually throwing shade at The Elite and Jack Perry with this in a way.
The winner of Royal rumble could chase roman I feel orton will get the shot
About to show the amateur show how to do things
CM Punk and Seth both have real life beef. This was not a work. Seth said bad things about Punk in interviews and on twitter. You brought this on yourself ROLLINS.
This is most definitely a work. Rollins is a pure professional. He wouldn’t do this if he didn’t have the all clear from Triple H to do so. They’re for sure building up a future feud between Punk and Rollins using some real life heat they had.
No, In a interview a couple months ago he said “Phil stay away you cancer” and also “did we just find out Phil’s a asshole”
@@RANDYORTONRKO12I mean Seth might legitimately hate punk but that doesn't mean he won't do business with him. Wwe is most interesting when the line between reality and fiction starts to blend.
@@karthiknarayanan3705 funny thing is, no one knew punk was coming back not even the staff, this was supposed to be very hush hush, that’s why sami was clearly trying to stop Seth
The fact Cole came up to Seth im gonna say they didnt know he was coming out and Seth's reaction isnt a work
Word is nobody knew, not even production or talent crews.
It was a genuine surprise and I am all in for it. I am pretty sure that if they put their beef aside CM Punk can elevate Rollins as the ultimate baby face. Also, honestly, I am already tired of Rollins reign after less than one year…we need some spice on the ring.
I think Rollins played this so well, Cole couldn’t have stopped him if he genuinely wanted to get to Punk, this will be an epic feud
@@DKGolf13trips said last night only he and kahn knew
@DKGolf13 actually I read a report saying that all the participants of the match were made aware of the end and Seth was told to make it look good
Love how Rhea NEVER broke character
They were friends at one point but he genuinely doesn’t like him now lol, and from what I was just reading. Drew was highly upset too
@@bb-gc2txthere’s rumors Drew was being lowballed by WWE and Fightful reported talent was made aware before main event punk was debuting so no he’s not making shit up and it’s a good observation. Drew probably left before punk came out so he wouldn’t get physical with him. If he was that hurt he didn’t stop for medical as reports are he slammed his locker room door got dressed fast and ran out of the arena. I had a coworker who worked WWE production part time before retiring being Covid. That sign the camera guy gave Drew was a legit they want you the fuck backstage. Fightful reported one talent was visible upset when told about punk prior to match that could be either Seth or Drew.
That does not make a feud not possible... remember edge took lita and still worked with jeff hardy
What makes it seem real are the commentators being the ones trying to cool him down, like when do they ever get involved in things like this? This ambiguity about whether its real or a work though is wrestling at its best.
Nah, watch Sami stay in character trying to talk Rollins down.
and that wasnt live anymore. it would get a lot more attention if they showed it live to all viewers. In my opinion this has a personal flavour in it.
Cole inserting himself to stop Rollins is def a sign it wasn't a work. Cause why would they do that if Cole isn't inserted into this fued? Looked like he geniuenly had to hold Seth back
When Phil comes out to disrupt Seth’s promo I would love to hear Seth say something like watch your step cause you may break your foot again.
This is going to be a GREAT feud for the next year
The wrestlers were unaware Punk was returning tonight. HHH kept it under wraps. Seth Rollins is geniunly pissed and this upcomming work is going to be fire 🔥
You think hhh is not working on this feud now?
you got worked kid
Remind me again: does Rollins have a history with punk? This sure doesn't look like an act.
Seth actually hates punk in real life and said he hated working with him years ago in wwe and said he’s such a jerk to everyone behind the scenes and he even said punks a cancer that he needs to stay away and never come back.
But im sure he will work with him in a dream feud up to wrestlemania
Punk gonna have a hell of time trying to keep up with Rollins
Man re-watching this and seeing Cody gives me chills
Biggest mistake to let Fragile Phil back into WWE. There is a lot of bad blood between him and the entire locker room. He was a little B&$#@ on his run with the WWE. He was a little B&$#@ when he tried MMA, and he was a little B$%$# in AEW. If wrestling was legit. Every man on the roster could kick his but, and several of the women could to. You know people higher up than HHH brought him back, because Hunter could not stand him when he was in WWE. They will regret bringing him back.
God Seth played this so well, he can smell the money
I steadfastly was not in the conspiracy theorist camp when Punk and the Bucks exploded, but *this* has work written all over it. Seth is way too smart and professional not to know that he'd be all over social media if he legitimately went unhinged like this; it's 1000% deliberate.
Yeah it was a work, but I can't wait for RAW baybay
Edit about two seconds later: The baybay sounded weird. I take it back.
No it's 100% real they really hate each other and cm punk pointed to him and waved at him punk antagonized
@sassyhassy Since when do commentators get involved if it's a so called work. Ya know
@@ErycRycan80 management could have told Cole and the other guy to play along.
Okay that F-Bombs and the wrestlers being pissed means something. AND I KNEW THIS WAS GONNA HAPPPEN.
Seth has always been a good worker.
Punk lost me long ago.
One of the happiest moments of the WWE. Cm punk is back.
Absolutley iam excited
Untill he cries, tries to destroy the company, and ultimately quits. AGAIN. Enjoy it while you can, I give it less than a year. There's a pattern with him.
yeah
@@griffin2901Thanks for saving me the trouble of typing it. That dude is a cancer.
Me too. What do you think his first injury that puts him on the shelf is going to be?
I don’t know if this is real or not because I know a lot of superstars really don’t like Punk, but I love how Mami is just taking a seat watching the show like the rest of us😂😂😂
Can't wait to see Roman's reaction to all this. He, too, will have something else to worry about other than The Bloodline's future.
CM Punk to take the title from Roman would be gold. i'm so over Roman drop the title and give some one else a go you flog,
If they're smart, they'll bring Roman out AFTER everyone else has had their moment with Punk first. Let all the little puppies bark, before the big dog comes in and marks his territory.
Cm punk going after roman, seth going after cm punk... then rollins punk feud after rollins cause punk the title
This is a valuable lesson to everyone. One you finally get a great opportunity there's always haters....I Love It...hate Seth hate but you will appreciate the greatness of PUNK
Main event jey uso just went down the ranks to regular event
"I know your anger, I know your dreams I've been everything you want to be" well... i mean punk has been using this song before seth was even on the roster but i like how you could put the lyrics into context here lol
Ohhh! After all these decades, I thought Reid had written, "I know you're in there, I know your dreams ..."
Let’s guess Seth didn’t know about his return 😂
I'm just like Rollins I can't stand that fool either.
This about to be a God Tier Feud!
Only seconds from his comeback we already have a feud
If you watch the ring when Punk comes out you can see Seth start freaking out and kicking the ropes. I'd think it was a work if it weren't for Cole holding him back. Cole doesn't do that kind of thing on camera.
Seth is selling it. Doing good job too. He may not like him but respects punk because his honesty. Saying he didn't want punk back was a lie. Just building up the hype for his major pop return 🙌
you got worked kid.
Seth is literally the most professional one out there, if you think he would behave like this, then you dont know him
I never thought cm punk was coming back to the WWE. This is awesome and excitement.
Unlike AEW, WWE doesnt assume everyone knows rollins comments on punk in online interviews. Thats why they didnt show it on camera this is for the people who know and I'm sure will lead to a fued. Do people really believe if seth did want to get to punk 3 guys barely pulling him back would stop him?
Seth definitely let them hold him back
It's not like seth is brock there were several guys he just gave it up. Storyline or not he legit doesn't like punk. HHH just said i don't care.
@jonathanscott3914
How about the fact that Rollins is a company guy and far too professional to react like this unless it’s a work. And if your top star on raw hated your new signing, wouldn’t you send the new guy to smack down
This isn’t the first time they done something like this. Roman getting pinned by Jey off air he was on the floor screaming in anger. Seth stunt is just an extra content for those that when to the show live.
@@thomasdupree4529 No it's Hunter's way of saying this is WWE get along or leave. After all the cuts anyone can be out of a job tomorrow. HHH has also was never worried about controversy. His best friend is Shawn Michael's all time king of drama.
I love when I have to question if something is a work or not. Best moment of the year imo.👍🏼👍🏼🔥🔥
I’d love to see a side by side of what punk was doing that made Seth just let loose.
Seth doesnt like CM Punk in real life so Seth emotion you see here is real...I wouldnt be surprise if this 2nd go lots people in the locker room will hate CM Punk and he will be fire like he did at Aew twice
Seth was legit pissed you can see Corey Graves calling him by his real name (Colby)
you got worked kid
Ik seth and roman would hate punk but i didn’t think seth would break his cool like this in public unless it’s work
It’s work! Everyone in that ring knew CM PUNK was gonna return at the end of the match. You would know if it was real they wouldn’t have Michael Cole trying to hold Rollins back 😆.
The reaction from Seth is well funny. 🤣
What I'm thinking is that some people knew Punk was possibly being signed or in the midst of a deal, but that they didn't know he was going to come out tonight at the end of the match. Maybe the spotlight being taken away from the win is what set him off. It's hard to see this as a work because it wasn't filmed for the camera. Only makes the whole thing more interesting moving forward.
but im reading its a work and they are set to face off at RR.
You know that wrestlers don't only work for cameras, right? There's a crowd, so there's always word of mouth, and every person has a camera nowadays, so odds are that people would film this and post it. Kayfabe isn't dead, just evolved.
I think they're playing off of trying to make this fued seem as a real as possible, and that means not capturing this moment on crispy WWE tv and letting social media do it's thing. Often times what generates the buzz is the unknown or the things we "weren't supposed to see". It's a work and it may very well lead to Seth vs Punk at 40.
Also, sometime that shoot the "exclusive footage" after the PLE is off the air. Just to show it the next show.
Only Rhea and Randy Orton knew because the deal went off during the match
Even backstage, Seth was said to have been looking for Punk while being held back by Triple H and Michael Cole. They're also saying that when Drew McIntyre left he was upset and that it was related to Punk as well
Why are they mad at punk?
@@ansufati1678 Quite a few people feel he is a pretty toxic person. There's a reason he was fired from AEW and WWE(on his wedding day no less lol). None of the talent knew he was coming either. Anyway, we'll see after Raw how everybody reacts
For me, Seth is really surprised by the return
Bro they all no that cm punk was gonna return
My god.. this is gonna be an epic and unfinished rivalry between punk and seth
Of course this is a work. lol. They are giving him (Punk) storylines from the get go. Ones that have context & meaning!
Wrestlemania is calling. And this next year’s show will really be “immortal”.
Nah I thinks it’s a real reaction cause you can see Michael Cole had too hold Seth back and plus Cm Punk have been trashing the company for a decade & Seth who really love this company don’t appreciate that
@@Dre.2397 CM punk hated Vince not the WWE.
That's actual hate. Stop being such dumb marks. Dumb disney wwe marks
@@Dre.2397 Seth isn't the type to get mad, start yelling and cursing, and flip people off. You're getting worked brother.
in no way is that a work, cm punk got some serious work to do to mend fences
Punk and Rollins are friends this is all to set up a feud. It started when punk was on back stage and then it just never happend cuz of Covid. If not for Covid I bet punk would have been back in WWE off the backstage angle. Punk is the one who made the shield .
@user-wm1ye2eq8vwhy else do you think dude use your head… start of a new era its not gonna be pg anymore
I feel like they conflicting emotions. Its like they want to be happy but are cautious about it. Then theres seth whos acting like the heartbroken ex who hasn't gotten over the break up yet. 😂
He wants a high profile feud and he getting it
lol
Randy Orton just execuses himself like "Wellp, that's non of my business...." 😂
Now I need a huge rivalry between CM Punk and Seth Rollins
1:28 You can see Micheal Cole at one point say something like “ no need to act like that, c’mon”
At 1:08 you see graves say “hey, hey Colby ”
Dang good catch
Now I'm finally gonna watch MNR for the first time in like 5yrs
There are so many great Wrestler who work hard the last Years and bring WWE back too greatness. Than many of them make a great show. After that, the Snake comes to your House. I totally understand why Rollins and others are pissed off.
Yeah, and yet hhh still deemed it is best for business to have punk back...
Whether this is a work or shoot... we WWE fans win. What a way to start a new rivalry
This is a work. HHH wouldn’t bring punk in knowing that his top guys would be pissed
Deal was done mid-day, I don't think he had enough time to tell anybody. I think everyone, including Seth, had no idea this was happening, and anyone that didn't like Punk was completely furious. Hopefully, they can mend fences and do business. Still an incredible night.
@@ECB2000 yea, it could just be Rollins getting pissed cus he had no idea it was happening
@chuckbuskeehe confirmed that only he and nick khan knew. Punk didn't arrive at the arena until a few mins before he walked out
@@1e_tard Apparently, Drew McIntyre was also pissed off and immediately stormed out of the arena. That's all I've seen reported so far. I knew Punk and Rollins had heat, but I don't know why Drew would be upset. Kind of odd.
@@ECB2000 Lol Seth has already said if its good for business he's fine with it. This was all part of the show folks.
I know your anger, I know your dreams
I've been everything you wanna be…
The music is so fitting for this narrative
I feel ya Seth....I REALLY feel ya....😒
Wrestling is on the up right now and you’re sad about that? grow up
cry me a river
I cant wait for Raw this week this is the wrestling i love!!! We needed this as fans!!! Punk and Seth and Randy is definitely coming for Roman!!! ❤❤❤
Not watched Raw in over a decade... this will bring me back to check it out. As long as it's not as lame as the Summer of Punk. WWE have a habit of dropping the ball on overhyped storylines. Well, least they did while Vince was in charge... I will be watching Raw with fresh eyes though. Hope they can keep my attention this time.
And people think this is fake. They're clearly trying to calm Seth down
You're aware them "trying to calm Seth down" is also part of the work, right?
Makes you wonder if what H was saying last night at the press conference was directed at SR when he said “People change, I’m not the same person I was 10 years ago and Punk isn’t the same person he was 10 years ago”
Damn!!!!! Can't wait to hear the promos on RAW!!!!!
Rhea just chillin in the corner 🤣❤️ my love
Actually people, if there is real heat between Rollins and Punk, there will never be a match between them, until it's resolved, so if Punk plans on sticking around, this would be a work. However ALL the wrestlers in that last match have every right to pissed that Punks return happened after their big match. That really wasn't a good time for his return, that should have happened before that match, so the fan's would be more hyped going into the beginning of the match, not to mention, taking away from Ortons return. But I'm sure others have their own opinions.
Yeah let’s have the crowd chant CM Punk over the entire match? what a clever boy
After the match made the most sense because you don't want Punk chants during the match.
@whitead25 there were punk chants throughout the whole show.
Orton doesn't care about this he's probably on his last years of his career and wants to enjoy the ride while it last.
you got worked kid
Seth is jealous he will never receive a pop like that
correct :)
Rollins is way better wrestler than crybaby punk. And talking about the pop, it was in Chicago, so what do you expect?
@@Gbrowx Rollins doesn't get a pop like that even in his hometown And speaking of crybaby Rollins was the one who was crying all over the internet along with Becky for Cody hahaha, Did you see how Rollins' crying little girl screamed in the video that they had to put up with it hahahaha what a clown
@@KevinSmith-fo1sf everyone knows who is the real crybaby 🤡 crying everywhere he goes and getting kicked out here and there 🤣
@@Gbrowx yeah The man who had to bring a championship to give it to him and the same man who used his wife to defend him on the internet lmaooo Rollins should go to aew
