CM Punk may have bitten off more than he can chew after invoking the memory of Roman Reigns\’ late father, Sika, on Monday Night Raw — because now the Anoa\’i family is firing back.
During the March 2 episode of Raw, Punk — the reigning World Heavyweight Champion — told Reigns he would \”bury him next to his father\” as the two traded words ahead of their WrestleMania 42 main event showdown.
Now, an extended family member is making sure Punk knows that his remark reverberated more than he might have thought.
Zilla Fatu Issues Direct Warning
Zilla Fatu, son of the late Umaga and cousin of Roman Reigns, took to an X Livestream to address Punk\’s comments directly. He didn\’t hold back:
\”I am not a CM Punk fan no more. I\’m about to slap CM Punk when I see him! Y\’all clip this sh*t. When I see you CM Punk, I\’m gonna slap the f*ck out of you.\

The Anoa\’i family is one of professional wrestling\’s most storied dynasties, and Punk\’s decision to invoke Sika by name on live television clearly struck a nerve that goes well beyond the WrestleMania stage.
You can be sure we\’ll be hearing from more of Reigns\’ extended family in the lead-up to April 19.
