CM Punk Reacts To WWE Star Expressing Interest In Facing Him In MMA

UFC

CM Punk has reacted to his WWE rival expressing interest in an MMA fight against him, and calling for UFC’s Dana White to make the match.

Seth Rollins recently made headlines with his response when asked if he’d be open to facing CM Punk in an MMA fight.

Noting that he’d be down to face Punk following a training camp, Rollins noted on Outta Pocket with RGIII:

“It might be the only one I do, but yeah, I would do it. You put me in there with like any of the other guys in my weight class, I’m out, but yeah.

“I mean Dana, you wanna make some money? Book it, brother, just give us a few months, give me like a training camp, but I feel like I could handle myself.”

CM Punk has now responded to Rollins’ comments in an interview on the Ringer Wrestling Show.

Making it clear that he’s focused on WrestleMania 41, Punk said:

“I really appreciate my time in MMA, and I really appreciate that everyone can look at that and underestimate me.

“I think it’s the most fantastic thing in the world. I’m gonna punch this motherf**ker in the face on Saturday. He’s talking about wanting to do an MMA fight. Alright. I’ll see you Saturday, kid. Welcome to hell.”

CM Punk, Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns will meet in the main event of WrestleMania 41 Night 1.
