#4. WWE Superstar Samoa Joe has labeled AEW star CM Punk as his brother
Samoa Joe and CM Punk teamed up for several matches outside WWE. The two also had the honor of facing each other in the ring before making their WWE debut.
The two men never crossed paths in the WWE ring. However, they have continued to have some fun on social media and talk highly about each other during interviews.
Helen Yee of Eyes on the Game caught up with The Samoan Submission Machine in 2017 and asked him what CM Punk thinks about his main roster debut. Joe confirmed that the two still stay in touch and are like brothers.
“Punk obviously he was here for a long time and he did pretty well for himself and has moved on to other things. When I came here I remember for years he was kind of championing my cause to be here in WWE and to see me now he’s kind of like, ‘Oh of course, the minute I’m not there you’re here now.’ Between me and him it’s always been an interesting relationship. We’re kind of like brothers that fight all the time. There’s never a dull moment when it comes to our conversation.”
Samoa Joe is back in WWE NXT while CM Punk recently made his AEW debut. It will be interesting to see if their paths cross in the wrestling world again.
