World Heavyweight Champion CM Punk has commented on the finish of John Cena’s WWE retirement match at Saturday Night’s Main Event.
The finish of John Cena’s final match has led to a lot of divisiveness among fans since December 13, when Cena submitted to Gunther with a smile on his face.
Speaking about the finish during an appearance on My Mom’s Basement, CM Punk weighed in on the finish, calling it ‘beautiful’.
He said:
“Some people maybe I don’t think you understand what you’re watching, but if you didn’t like it, I can also understand that, but to overnight make it your entire personality and spend an unhealthy amount of time talking about it.
“Put it this way, if John won, they’d be mad about that too, but we wouldn’t be talking about it anymore, and we’re still talking about that finish. The smile, the tap, ‘oh my God the guy that said don’t give up just gave up’, did he?
“Everybody’s an expert, I thought it was beautiful.”
