CM Punk talks AJ Lee segments, fans chanting his name, possible return, more

CM Punk speaks again on Colt Cabana’s podcast

CM Punk returned to Colt Cabana's Art of Wrestling podcast show last night to discuss more about his WWE exit in details. After revealing his reasons behind his departure few days back, Punk spoke again only this time the interview was less controversial.

After Vince McMahon apologised to Punk on Stone Cold Steve Austin's podcast, Punk gave his reactions and also talked about several other things including watching his wife AJ Lee's segments,if fan chants bother him and if a big Wrestlemania return was possible.

You can listen to the full segment here on Soundcloud. Here are some of the highlights.

On watching AJ Lee’s segments

Punk said he hasn’t watched wrestling in three years. When he re-signed with WWE, he would re-watch the big shows but that’s it. He said he couldn’t stomach it anymore. He watches AJ Lee’s segments now because she’s his wife.

On fans still chanting his name

Fans chanting his name still does not bother him. He says it’s weird because fans do it in two cases – when they see his wife AJ Lee or when something awful is going on in the ring. Punk says he sees both sides of the argument – people who say don’t chant his name and those who do.

Punk says we shouldn’t chant at the guys busting their ass but added that he will be biased and say you bought a ticket so you can chant what you want, “just don’t chant it at my friends and just chant it at the guys that f****** suck and wear lifts in their boots. That covers everybody.”

If a big Wrestlemania return can be expected

Regarding fans asking if he would return for a big WrestleMania spot, Punk told a story about how the legendary band The Doors had an incident on The Ed Sullivan Show and were told they would never play there again. Jim Morrison of The Doors told Sullivan that they just played The Ed Sullivan Show, saying they didn’t need to play it again.

Punk said he’s “been there, done that” in regards to coming back for WrestleMania. Punk says it’s become such a big deal with everyone about him not getting a WrestleMania main event and he tried to communicate that to WWE for so many years that he feels the door is closed now.

Regarding people saying Punk will be back eventually and how could he turn down the money, Punk said it’s “way too f****** early and I have no interest in f****** going back.” He said the difference in his appearance, his mental stability and everything else is so drastically different than it was nine to ten months ago.

He talked about how feuding with The Wyatt Family was supposed to be a learning & teaching experience but it wasn’t fun. He said being in the ring with The Shield is when he realised it wasn’t fun anymore. He took a bump off a tackle one night and looked up at the lights, wondering what he was doing with his life.

Finishes by thanking his fans

Punk said if anyone was ever a fan of his, wanted to see him wrestle or purchased any of his merchandise, he appreciates it and thanks you. Punk said he had to wait this long to tell the story due to legal reasons but it got out when it could.

He said if he offended you then he’s sorry but there’s a chance you might need to lighten up and a chance he meant to offend you. If you support him, that’s awesome and if you don’t like him, don’t follow him on Twitter.

If you don’t like KISS, don’t buy their albums. Punk said find something you love to do, do it and don’t worry about what everyone else is doing unless they’re trying to murder you.
