CM Punk can’t take Seth Rollins seriously because of the way he dresses.
The two WWE stars made history last night. They wrestled in the main event of the first-ever episode of Monday Night Raw on Netflix. CM Punk beat Seth Rollins in that match, starting his 2025 with a bang.
CM Punk spoke at the Raw on Netflix post-show and was asked if he had gained a newfound respect for Seth Rollins following their match on Raw.
The former WWE Champion revealed that he doesn’t take Rollins seriously because of the way he dresses outside the ring. He said that he doesn’t view him as “a killer” due to this, hilariously comparing his gimmick to the Purple Pieman of Strawberry Shortcake lore.
although he noted that CM Punk always makes wrestlers step up their game when they face him.
“I’m not gonna disparage Seth (Rollins)—at least not his ability. Maybe the way he dresses. Honestly, I don’t think he needs to do all that. I think Seth Rollins is a killer. But when he dresses that way and acts a certain way, I don’t think he’s a killer. So, I can honestly say maybe I don’t take him as seriously as he wants me to take him,” CM Punk said.
“The Seth Rollins I faced tonight, the one that was face-to-face with me last week—that’s Seth Rollins to me. Not the Purple Pieman from Porcupine Peak. It’s funny, but I will bring the best out of you if you step into the ring with me. If you hold the microphone against me, I will 100% make people say, ‘Where was that person this entire time? Where was that Drew McIntyre? Where was that Seth Rollins?’ It’s rare air when I step into the ring, and if you don’t step up, you get stepped right on out,” added CM Punk.
