Seth Rollins never backs down when it comes to taking shots at CM Punk. He referenced Punk's real-life rival from AEW during the latest edition of Monday Night RAW, which drew varied responses from fans.
The star in question is AEW's Jack Perry. During his time with the Jacksonville-based promotion, CM Punk got into a real-life backstage altercation with Perry at All In 2023. This led to Punk being fired from the company and returning to WWE in November.
On the May 12 edition of Monday Night RAW, Seth Rollins confronted Punk in the opening segment. He brought up the tensions between Punk and Perry with the infamous "Cry me a river" remark. This attracted numerous reactions from fans on X, with many posting about the former TNT Champion.
