CM Punk On Kofi Kingston’s Big Title Win, If WWE Using “Best In The World” Is Dig At Him

Former WWE Champion CM Punk appeared on Stadium’s Sauce & Shram show where he was asked a few questions about WWE.

Right off the bat, Punk was asked about WWE using the “Best In the World” nickname for former WWE SmackDown Commissioner Shane McMahon since November.

This is where Punk noted that the “funny thing about the company, is I could say, ‘Yea that’s a little shot at me,’ And you know, it probably is. But they’d deny it until the cows come home.”

He was also asked was about Kofi Kingston winning the WWE Title from Daniel Bryan at WrestleMania 35 this past Sunday night, which marked his first major world title win under the WWE banner. Punk and Kingston have been good friends for years now.

Punk believes that WWE was too late and they should have put the title on Kofi 10 years ago. He also thinks that they should learn to be ahead of the curve in the future. He added that he’s stoked that it happened.

Punk decided to walk out of WWE on the Monday following the Royal Rumble pay-per-view event in 2014. Since he departed from the WWE, fans have wanted to see Punk compete in the squared circle again. Instead, he took his talents to the Octagon in the UFC.
