In a new interview, a WWE star has weighed in on the backstage demeanor and behavior of CM Punk in his experience.
Acknowledging that he hadn’t gotten the chance to meet CM Punk until after there were “rumors about his character”, NXT Champion Trick Williams opened up about his experiences with Punk.
In a recent conversation on the No-Contest Wrestling podcast, Trick Williams spoke about his backstage relationship with CM Punk.
Williams said:
“I didn’t meet CM Punk until after the rumors about his character were brought about from other places.
“I didn’t know what to expect when I met him, but all I’m gonna say is that dude, Punk, man, good dude, like, solid. You can just tell when some people are just genuine, and he’s very genuine.
“He takes pride in helping us, the next generation, to become the superstars that we need to be. He gives us real advice, too. He talks about how to handle yourself, in the ring, outside the ring, with everything it takes to become a superstar.
“Even closer to today’s time when we are dealing with different stuff, like social media and how to handle everything that comes with being a superstar in 2024 that other other superstars didn’t really have to deal with all the way. He’s been very helpful for a lot of us.”
Trick Williams is set to defend his NXT Championship at this Saturday’s Deadline premium live event against Ridge Holland.
