CM Punk: Drew McIntyre’s constant jabs get under my skin

One big thing

CM Punk has admitted that Drew McIntyre’s relentless taunting on social media is getting on his nerves.

The details

• McIntyre has been constantly reminding Punk of the triceps injury he caused at the 2023 Royal Rumble.
• The Scottish Warrior frequently tweets jabs at Punk and now wears an “AJ and Larry” bracelet to further provoke him.
• Punk revealed on The Masked Man Show that McIntyre’s behavior is particularly irritating because he “never drops the beef.”

Key quote

“I think that maybe why [Drew] gets under my skin so much is because I feel like he’s always on, and he doesn’t turn it off,” Punk said.

By the numbers

• McIntyre injured Punk in January 2023.
• Punk is set to deliver a message to McIntyre on the upcoming Monday’s WWE Raw.

Why it matters

This feud demonstrates that compelling storylines in professional wrestling don’t always need to revolve around championship belts. The personal nature of this rivalry, centered on pride and a homemade bracelet, offers a refreshing change of pace for WWE fans.

What’s next

With Seth Rollins out of the picture, the Punk-McIntyre feud is likely to intensify. Fans can expect more heated exchanges and potentially multiple in-ring clashes between the two superstars.
