calling him by his government name wow

I don’t know if I can handle any more “friends” turning their backs on me. However, I know that there’s always a bright side if CM Punk is giving me his words of encouragement. Even if I had to hear it like it is—I do respect his honesty for making his intentions known.

Even if that happens, big if that CM Punk could once again create another moment. I hope it’s him that wins the Royal Rumble just so I can prove to the world that the best is no longer the best in the world with all due respect. But lately? I’m just reaching my breaking point.

I’ve known you for a long time Walking on cloud nine. ξ NOT @CMPunk., all the way back to when I was still finding my foot into this industry. When we did make it, we were at very different paths. You were the man for a long time. ‘But that dynamic has changed now. I’ve become the man you want to beat.

I know that I’ve got a bounty on my head for as long as I continue to hold the WWE Undisputed Championship. I admire that you didn’t mince your words about your intentions. ‘But I also want you to realize that this isn’t the same business, that you left behind over ten years ago.

The world brought you back after all this time, because they still believed in you. They still believed in CM Punk. The truth is I hope you do win the Royal Rumble, because I intend on being the one to show you that the words ‘Best In the World,’ doesn’t belong to you anymore.
