CM Punk was pretty amused at some aspects of an angle that played out on WWE programming last night. Smackdown this week opened up with a scene that implied Jeff Hardy had driven under the influence, hit Elias with his car and then took off. CM Punk then took to Twitter and pointed out what he found amusing about the segment.

The angle led to both Elias and Jeff Hardy being removed from the Intercontinental tournament. AJ Styles was granted a bye to the finals. Sheamus then won a battle royal to determine who would face Daniel Bryan later in the night with Bryan winning the match between the two after Hardy returned and distracted Sheamus.
