R-Truth takes a massive shot at CM Punk

WWE Superstar R-Truth has taken a shot at CM Punk via his TikTok handle.

CM Punk has put the AEW roster on notice with his debut in All Elite Wrestling on last week's Rampage. A long list of AEW and WWE stars have reacted to the big return so far.

WWE Superstar R-Truth recently posted a comment on TikTok reacting to an audio clip that highlighted the reasons behind CM Punk's 2014 WWE exit. The clip was extracted from Punk's interview with Colt Cabana, which came several months after his exit.

WWE has given up on Paul Heyman? Here's the story!

Towards the end of the clip, CM Punk can be heard saying that when he was white-hot, he was booked to lose to Triple H, as well as "Awesome Truth." R-Truth didn't mince his words while addressing CM Punk's comments and had the following to say on TikTok:

CM Punk you lost to me and Miz cause we were HOTTER than you sorry, and I neva thought you were impressive at all, just typical entitlement.

CM Punk and R-Truth aren't exactly strangers

Fans may remember CM Punk's legendary Pipebomb promo, which he cut on John Cena back in 2011. Mere seconds before the promo kicked off, Punk had helped R-Truth defeat Cena in a Tables match, in what was a major upset.

Truth formed a tag team with The Miz that same year, and the duo engaged in a series of battles with WWE's top babyfaces, including CM Punk. Records prove that CM Punk came out victorious on most occasions. Truth and The Miz did register a big victory against CM Punk and Triple H at Vengeance 2011.

Truth's comments about CM Punk have left a lot of fans in confusion. R-Truth is regarded by many as an incredibly nice guy who rarely speaks ill about anyone, and that's why his comments about CM Punk are garnering major coverage.

It seems like Truth didn't appreciate CM Punk putting him and The Miz down while talking about his WWE exit, and decided to clap back.

Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.

When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
