Drew McIntyre takes sly dig at CM Punk after injured WWE star’s WrestleMania dream ends

Drew McIntyre has been playing the role of a heel in recent months and has shifted his focus to CM Punk, who had to give up his aspirations of wrestling at WrestleMania 40 due to injury.

With the recent situation of Punk, McIntyre has chosen to mock him once again in a brutal manner. In a recent promo, McIntyre indicated that he’s embracing his darker side. He mentioned that he prayed for Punk to get injured, which created a lot of tension between them. Given Drew’s recent family tragedies, his words were even more impactful, particularly when he physically attacked Punk.

Drew McIntyre blasts CM Punk

WWE superstar Drew McIntyre has been performing exceptionally well as a villain for the past few months. Recently, he targeted CM Punk, who, unfortunately, had to abandon his plans for WrestleMania 40 due to an injury. McIntyre has decided to mock and ridicule Punk with the utmost cruelty in a not-so-pleasant move.

It was reported earlier that CM Punk had suffered a triceps injury during the Royal Rumble match. This had raised concerns about his participation in WrestleMania 40. Fans were worried about the possibility of him missing out on this big opportunity. Unfortunately, that became a reality. CM Punk confirmed on the latest episode of Monday Night Raw that his injury was legitimate and he wouldn’t be able to participate in the main event of WrestleMania 40.

On the latest episode of Raw, Drew McIntyre insulted CM Punk and then went on to attack his already injured arm. Later, McIntyre took to Twitter and shared a meme to mock CM Punk after ruining his chances of participating in the main event of WrestleMania 40.

Drew McIntyre is reportedly looking to achieve what CM Punk has always dreamed of. It remains to be seen whether Drew McIntyre will emerge victorious in the Men’s Elimination Chamber match and secure his spot at WrestleMania 40. If he does, it would be a major setback for CM Punk.

CM Punk’s WrestleMania dream ends after injury

The Royal Rumble match is a pivotal event in the wrestling world. It’s a time when wrestlers can break alliances, start new feuds, and ultimately solidify their place in history by earning a guaranteed title shot at WrestleMania. Unfortunately, for CM Punk, this past Royal Rumble match harmed him and transformed him in a way that was not favorable.

At the beginning of the latest edition of WWE Raw, Punk announced a possible injury. The Best in the World confirmed that he tore his right tricep during Saturday’s Royal Rumble match. Despite trying to perform despite the injury, he will not be able to participate in the Elimination Chamber and will also miss WrestleMania 40.

Although it was widely anticipated that he would miss most, if not all, of this year’s Road to WrestleMania, Punk didn’t disappoint the crowd in Tampa. He gave a passionate speech that was aimed at the masses, acknowledging the struggles of those who battle cancer and work in ordinary professions, such as teachers and garbage collectors. He reassured the WWE Universe of his certain comeback by likening himself to the Chicago Cubs and saying that there is always next year.

Then Drew McIntyre interrupted him towards the end. McIntyre praised Punk’s determination but then announced with excitement that he would take Punk’s place on the road to WrestleMania and live CM Punk’s dream again. He then attacked the already-injured Punk, and it was only with the help of Sami Zayn that the situation was resolved. The segment ended with Zayn assisting Punk to stand up.
