"Don't be a hypocrite" - Massive shots fired at CM Punk by former WWE Champion; major announcement teases potential match
Drew McIntyre has sent a message to CM Punk after a significant announcement by WWE.
On the latest episode of RAW, Drew McIntyre confronted The Best in the World, making his feelings about the latter evident. Besides seemingly accusing Punk of being a pseudo-leader, McIntyre announced his entry into the 2024 men's Royal Rumble match.
Before this week's WWE Live event in Las Cruces, McIntyre pointed out Punk's absence and labeled him a hypocrite. He asserted that The Second City Saint wasn't someone who led by example, contrary to his claims:
"I am at Las Cruces for tonight's live event. Guess who's not here. Same person that claimed on Monday that they would lead by example, CM Punk. Don't be a hypocrite, mate. Leading by example and suggesting that you are outworking everyone, we both know that's not true. I look at you and see the same old Punk. Very big name. Here to make money, not friends. Your words, not mine," McIntyre said.
