CM Punk has a long list of talents he would love to face in WWE.
The Straight Edge star was recently interviewed by Peter Rosenberg of Rosenberg Wrestling. He talked about things such as the potential of his wife AJ Lee returning to wrestling, his regrets about his AEW career and more.
When asked which are some superstars he would love to get in the ring with, Punk mentioned talents who have shown a great understanding of in-ring psychology in recent times. The list included names such as Chad Gable and Ludwig Kaiser:
“When you ask me ‘Who do you want to get in the ring with’ I go ‘Oh the list is…it’s pretty lengthy’ I think Chad Gable’s on the top of the list. I think Bronson Reed’s on the top of the list.
[Ludwig] Kaiser is somebody I see a lot in. I think could be fun. Gunther…I’m selfishly talking about guys that I would love to wrestle on House shows.”
The Money Stuff
CM Punk then mentioned how there is a whole other list of names that he could main event PPVs with, such as Cody Rhodes and Roman Reigns:
“But then you talk about the money stuff. You talk about the marquee stuff. You talk about what is a match that you could see Main Eventing a pay-per-view. That’s what get my juices flowing.
I think whenever myself and Roman Reigns are face to face on television, I think that’s going to be a moment. I think there’s the table set for myself and Cody. You never know when The Rock’s gonna come back.”
When the name of John Cena was brought up, Punk admitted that he would love to get in the ring with his old rival. Although he explained that Cena has earned the right to call his own shots in his final year:
“There’s Big Match John coming right around the corner. Another guy that I don’t want to talk about because he’s gonna do his own thing. If I’m a part of that…what a fortunate career I’ve had but John deserves everything that he wants. He calls his own shot is basically what I’m saying. But yeah, I’d love to get hands on him too.”
Starting from Raw’s Netflix premiere on January 6, John Cena will be going on a retirement tour. He’ll be active throughout the year competing at events such as Royal Rumble and WrestleMania. The Cenation Leader will bid goodbye to his in-ring career at the end of the year.
