World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins recently spoke about whether he will ever lock horns with CM Punk.

Punk was originally advertised for the Elimination Chamber Premium Live Event in Perth, Australia. However, those plans were changed after he suffered a torn tricep during the Men's Royal Rumble Match. The 45-year-old star is currently sidelined for a few months, missing out on a coveted spot at WrestleMania.

During a recent interview with Wrestle Radio Australia, Rollins spoke about Punk's current predicament. He said the current situation reminded him of Jon Moxley's (fka Dean Ambrose) line about the star having a fragile mind, body, and ego.

The Visionary claimed that the Straight Edge Superstar would now have to work harder to find his way into the World Heavyweight Championship picture.

"I don't wanna say I told you so but me and a lot of other people told you so. What's the line - Fragile mind, fragile body, fragile ego. I think somebody I know said something like that about him and it rings true. Look, here's the deal and I told him this in the ring. You wanna find a way to me and the World Heavyweight Championship, you're gonna have to work for it. The deal is he's just gonna have to work a little harder now," he said. [From 03:38 to 04:03]
