Speaking during a recent episode of Live Q&A on Backstage Pass, JBL shared his thoughts on CM Punk's viral WWE live event run-in. The Hall of Famer praised Punk for his ability to entertain fans, saying it appears the Straight Edge Superstar was enjoying his current run with the company.
"Right, that that's an old spot, but I'm not taking away from it. I mean, that was it was awesome. I knew that real fans today haven't seen it. You know what's old is new. And he looked like he was having so much freaking fun."

He continued:
"I saw him on some social media clip in the house show, live event, whatever you want to call it. He was doing the (Ultimate) Warrior shake on the ropes. He did the the Cena, you can't see me. He's just having a ball out there and fans have got to be eating this up like crazy." [43:36 onwards]

About the author
Manik Aftab
Manik Aftab writes Exclusive articles for Sportskeeda Wrestling’s WWE division. A BA (Hons) in English Literature helped him improve his writing skills before starting his career as a pro wrestling writer.
Before joining Sportskeeda, Aftab worked for Ringside News and The Sportster, where his wrestling articles and feature pieces consistently ranked on the first page of Google SERPs.
He prioritizes accuracy, relevance, and ethics in his reporting by conducting thorough research, verifying sources, and adhering to professional journalistic standards.
While Aftab’s favorite wrestler in AEW is Hangman Adam Page, he doesn’t have a favorite in WWE yet. However, he considers Stone Cold Steve Austin to be the greatest professional wrestler of all time. His earliest memory of watching pro wrestling was when The Rock faced The New Age Outlaws in a handicap match, but it was the John Cena vs. Edge match from Unforgiven 2006 that got him hooked. If given the chance to manage a star from the Attitude Era, he would choose The British Bulldog, as he believes Davey Boy Smith was a terrific worker and could've benefitted from having a mouthpiece for his lack of mic skills.
When not watching pro wrestling, Aftab enjoys reading science fiction and watching anime.
