Today is the one year anniversary of CM Punk’s return to WWE at last year’s Survivor Series. Punk’s return was a shock to so many people because of the feeling that he left the company on bad terms and there are still people in the business who did not get along with him.
Matt Hardy, on the latest “Extreme Life…” podcast, cleared up misconceptions that fans may have on his feelings about Punk.
“I don’t have any issues with Punk. I think Punk is extremely talented. I think he’s great. The only thing I said which, you know, people will hold over my head, like, ‘Oh, my God, he doesn’t like CM Punk’ was just that I think he was wrong in the All Out deal where he called out The Elite and Hangman and everything else. I just think he was in the wrong there and kind of started the problem.
As far as Punk goes ,I don’t have issues with Punk. I think Punk is talented as sh*t. He’s very special. He truly is one of a kind, especially the way he connects with people. He connects so deep to people. His emotional connection to his fan base is unreal. It’s very reminiscent of the way Jeff’s fan base connects with him because they’re loyal to the very end, to the ends of the earth.”
