During the Clash at the Castle post-show presser, Hunter referenced some things Punk told. He acknowledged a new atmosphere in WWE and a lot of it in some way was started by Punk back in the day. Triple H felt that they did not agree on many things earlier, but that was all in the past now.
"He mentioned some things up here and yeah, there is a change and there is a new era, new atmosphere and new all those things. And yes, absolutely, in some ways, they are things that he was asking for and started a long time ago. At a time that he and I, for a lot of reasons, just saw things differently from each other. We saw eye-to-eye but it was angry eye-to-eye, it was opposition eye-to-eye. [From 0:38 - 1:20]
