CM Punk grabbed the headlines last weekend after he decided to join the UFC, putting an end to any speculation of a WWE return. The move came after revealing his reasons behind his WWE exit during a controversial Colt Cabana’s podcast show.
The former WWE superstar shared his side of the story with the WWE universe and had a lot to say about the officials of the company including chairman Vince McMahon. Eventually, the media reached out to UFC, and none other than the UFC star Nate Diaz had some very harsh or maybe hard truths to say about Punk joing the UFC. This is what he had to say.
“I don’t dig it. He has got no fights. I know he’s a big draw. I looked him up. Everyone’s going to buytickets. It’s going to be great for the venue and the UFC, but at the same time, it downgrades all the fighters.”
“He might do great, but why does he get a chance? He’s an amateur. You’re going to put an amateur in there with pros? That makes us all amateurs, so I think it’s ridiculous. As far as I’m concerned, f-ck him, f-ck the whole situation. Anybody who takes that fight is tripping.”
“If I want to, I can’t go play in the NBA – not even Stefan Struve’s big ass. He can’t go play in the NBA if he wants to because he feels like making a change. For a publicity thing? They wouldn’t pay him no money, and they wouldn’t even let him play. It’s ridiculous.
“I don’t think you should just let some millionaire WWE guy just come on over and play a little game, like have fun with his career. I’m over here busting my ass, fighting for 10 years and doing my thing and having a serious job that I have to do for this. And this guy is going to come over and probably get paid more than everyone in the room.”
“I’m sorry, but this guy’s making a joke out of my serious life and getting compensated more for it. I don’t mean no harm on him, but I don’t think it’s right.” Clearly he’s got a grudge over all the WWE stars who make a lot of money. Well CM Punk, you’ve already made enemies before you even officially started. We wish him the best of luck.
