WWE has partnered up with the Susan G. Komen foundation once again to raise money for the fight against breast cancer. Just prior to Monday’s RAW, Punk went on a rant about the Komen organization, calling them a scam and encouraging fans to do research about where the money they donate is going.
For those unaware, Komen has been under fire for years because such a small percentage of the money they raise (close to 20%) actually goes to breast cancer research and treatments while their executives collect big salaries. Punk tweeted:
If you're going to give money to a company that claims to raise money for finding a cure for cancer, please do some research.Komen is a scam

@MrCreepyBoss I'm talking about people collecting money for themselves in the name of breast cancer and you're talking about fake wrestling.

@Stephen_R96 no. It has nothing to do with wrestling.

@AdamentlyPoised I hated on nobody. I didn't mention wrestling at all.
