5 Times Superstars targeted WWE on social media: The Undertaker is unhappy, Paige's emotional rant

#3 CM Punk goes overboard while bashing The Miz and takes a shot at WWE as well

Earlier this year, The Miz appeared on an episode of WWE Backstage on FS1. After the show came to an end, The Miz took a cheeky jibe at former WWE Superstar CM Punk, who didn't appear that week. This infuriated Punk to no end, and he took to Twitter to send a response to the former WWE Champion. Punk sent out a profanity-filled rant to The Miz on Twitter and didn't forget to target WWE in the process.

The former WWE Champion later deleted the controversial tweet

In his tweet, CM Punk referred to The Miz as a dork. Additionally, he dubbed the money WWE earns from its shows in Saudi Arabia as 'blood money'. Punk's tweet immediately garnered tons of social media attention, and the WWE Universe was divided in its response to his rant. Punk later realized that he had gone too far while responding to The Miz's jibe, and went on to delete the tweet. The Miz was asked about the tweet months later, and he seemed genuinely surprised at Punk's outrage.

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.
