CM Punk Addresses WWE Universe After Raw Goes Off Air
CM Punk had a special message for the WWE Universe after Raw went off the air.
CM Punk made a surprise appearance after WWE Monday Night Raw went off the air. The main event of the February 19th edition of Raw featured Gunther defending his Intercontinental title against "Main Event" Jey Uso. Gunther was successful in continuing his long streak with the Intercontinental championship, thanks in part to interference by Jey's brother, Jimmy Uso. Royal Rumble winner Cody Rhodes was on hand to get the Anaheim crowd firmly behind Jey Uso, but seeing CM Punk really got a huge pop from the audience. CM Punk is currently on the shelf due to a torn triceps at the Royal Rumble, but he had an important message for the WWE Universe to share.
The WWE Instagram account shared a video of CM Punk coming out to greet the crowd after WWE Raw was off the air following the matchup between Jey Uso and Intercontinental champion Gunther. "Good to see you, CM Punk. Get well soon! #WWERaw," said the Instagram post. As for the video, it begins with Cody Rhodes telling the Anaheim crowd that there is one more person who wanted to say hello. Then, CM Punk's theme music hits, and he jogs out to the ring in street clothes and a brace on his right arm.
"This is a bump in the road and I promise you that next time we are in Anaheim, I will be here and I will have my boots on!" CM Punk declares.
