CM Punk asks Adam Pearce to lift Drew McIntyre’s ban, Seth Rollins threatens to take him out

CM Punk wants revenge on Drew McIntyre, but Seth Rollins has threatened to take him out.

The feud between CM Punk and Drew McIntyre has reached new heights in recent months. Punk cost Drew McIntyre his World Championship match at WWE Clash at the Castle. After McIntyre defeated Punk with a brutal attack on the June 28 episode of WWE SmackDownPunk cost McIntyre again at WWE Money in the Bank. Punk ran out and fought McIntyre when he cashed in his Money in the Bank contract and Damian Priest took advantage by laying McIntyre to the mat.

CM Punk then came to the ring on the July 8 episode of WWE RAW and expressed his excitement. He first congratulated and thanked John Cena before reiterating that he wanted to face Cena one more time before retiring. He mentioned that McIntyre was suspended for his behavior at WWE Money in the Bank. Punk said he came back to get his hands on McIntyre and he wanted to show McIntyre that his behavior had consequences.

Punk detailed the road to that point and reiterated his promise that McIntyre would never be world champion again as long as he had air in his lungs. He said that he wanted to get his hands on McIntyre. Punk asked Adam Pearce to lift McIntyre’s suspension so he could fight McIntyre, but Seth Rollins answered instead.

Seth Rollins confronts CM Punk

Punk left the ring and Rollins wondered if Punk was afraid he was going to kick his ass. Punk told Rollins that he gave him a warning last time and that’s why he should be careful what he said. Rollins said he was out there because he wanted Punk to help him understand why Punk decided to do the one thing he told him not to do by sticking his nose into his business at WWE Money in the Bank. Punk replied that he was minding his business.

Punk then apologized to Rollins and said he didn’t mean to mess anything up for him, but he couldn’t be that sorry because it was Rollins.

Rollins said Punk never sincerely apologized for anything and he would let him be a “selfish bastard” anywhere else, but now that Punk cost him the title, he wouldn’t let it go. He told Punk that it was his turn to take something away from Punk. Rollins promised Punk that if he was acquitted, he would break his arm and put him back on the bench. He told Punk that actions have consequences.

Update: Pearce later said he would set up a meeting with McIntyre next week, but told CM Punk to go home so he could take care of Drew.
