A UFC vet recently opened up about CM Punk's exchange with Golden Globe winner Kieran Culkin, which went viral on social media. It was a significant night for WWE and they ensured they had all their top stars on hand to make a great first impression on their new platform.
WWE, UFC's partner under the TKO banner, hosted their flagship show Monday Night Raw at the Intuit Dome in Los Angeles, California this past Monday as they ushered in a new era on Netflix. The streaming giant is now the new broadcast partner for Monday Night Raw in the United States and has the broadcast rights for all WWE content in other markets. Culkin was among several celebrities in attendance including his brother Macaulay, Vanessa Hudgens, and Travis Scott.
WWE posted the exchange between the two on their Instagram account along with captions and audio, so fans can hear what they said to each other:

Former UFC competitor CM Punk reacts with 'Home Alone' reference
CM Punk also weighed in and shared his reaction to WWE Instagram's post showing his exchange with Kieran Culkin. The former UFC competitor made a 'Home Alone' reference, which was one many fans picked up on.
The WWE superstar mentioned that they both have an appreciation for Pepsi, which is a reference to his tattoo and Culkin's role as Fuller in 'Home Alone'. In the holiday classic film, Kevin McCallister, played by Culkin's brother Macaulay, is reluctant to share the bed with him because of fears he'll wet the bed due to all the Pepsi he consumes.

"We both love Pepsi. IYKYK"
