In his promo, Breakker said he was upset that it was so easy to pin Punk at WarGames and that Punk is a “soft ass bitch.” He said that Punk is no different than Seth Rollins, who needs to be more concerned about Becky Lynch being a bigger star than him.
Breakker said that Punk tried to break his neck at WarGames, so now he’s going to ruin his life and his career. Breakker also told a story of Punk seeing him backstage at WrestleMania 41 and saying, “Congratulations, let’s see if you can cut a promo with the big dogs now.” Breakker said “consider the promo cut” and that Punk would be looking up at the lights as they announce him as the new champion on January 5th.
"CM Punk is nothing but a SOFT A** B****!" 🤬
