As you might know by now, CM Punk was betrayed by Paul Heyman in the main event of WrestleMania 41. While an overjoyed Roman Reigns thought that his Wiseman had just come to his senses, he, too, was a victim of betrayal as Heyman ultimately aligned with Seth Rollins, who won the match thanks to his help.

However, while CM Punk looked visibly distraught after WrestleMania 41 Saturday went off the air, he was with the referee and even surprisingly cracked a smile in between. This was a surprising response to what took place minutes earlier. You can watch the responses of Punk and Reigns parallel in the video below. Notice Punk's reaction before he exited the ring.

Ultimately, Punk fulfilled the one goal he had left to achieve in his wrestling career - to headline WrestleMania. This was something he managed to do thanks to Paul Heyman's help.

It had less to do with winning the actual main event itself. With that said, he put his body on the line and even took a shot to the head from a trash can.

Punk's response seemed to be one of disbelief, which is perhaps what led to him cracking up a smile amid all of that.
