WATCH: 5 most controversial wrestling segments

In 2023, wrestling went above and beyond to make moments that fans enjoyed. However, some of these segments were rather controversial. CM Punk returning to WWE is something that nobody expected considering the controversy that surrounded his initial departure from AEW.

The surprising comeback took place during Survivor Series: WarGames and while fans were thrilled to see Punk back in WWE, not everyone in the company shared the same sentiment. Wrestlers like Seth Rollins openly expressed their dissatisfaction with his return and started filling out at Punk.

2023 has been the year of Christian Cage in AEW where he has emerged as one of the most impactful villains in the current wrestling scene. His heel reign sank to a new low when he talked about Nick Wayne's deceased father and called him a less talented wrestler who couldn’t be a world champion.
