CM Punk’s issues with ‘Hangman’ Adam Page are seemingly not over yet, despite the pair no longer being a part of the same wrestling promotion.
The issues between the two resumed on social media this past weekend, when Page spoke about his moveset, and his hope that whoever uses his moveset next being “kinda cool.” Though the Cowboy didn’t specify, many took this as a nod to Logan Paul, who has used Page’s signature Buckshot Lariat in matches.
After Saturday Night’s Main Event, CM Punk was interviewed by Jackie Redmond and Peter Roseburg, the latter of whom spoke highly of the moveset of WWE Hall of Famer Koko B. Ware. This comment irked Punk, who believes it’s foolish for somebody to use the moveset term, especially if they’re a wrestler.
“It’s garbage. If you say that, you’re an idiot. Especially if you’re a wrestler, and you say ‘moveset.’ That 100% tells me you don’t know what the hell you’re doing.”
Punk didn’t mention Page by name, but fans online certainly spotted a connection between their two comments. Punk infamously called Page an “empty-headed f***ing dumb f**k” during his now-infamous AEW All Out 2022 post-show media scrum rant. Punk’s comments, and a backstage fight with The Elite, would see both sides suspended, andthe incident would forever change Punk’s relationship with AEW.
