#1. WWE COO Triple H and AEW star CM Punk seem to dislike each other

It’s no secret that Triple H and CM Punk never got on the same page in WWE. Punk had already taken a few shots at Triple H before he joined the promotion, and the two men had a few problems with each other while working together.

CM Punk sat down with Colt Cabana to talk about his exit from WWE in 2014. The Straight Edge wrestler noted that Triple H never liked him anyway.

“Triple H never liked me in the first place.”

On an episode of Jim Ross’s podcast Grilling JR focusing on CM Punk, JR recalled why Triple H did not like The Second City Savior as a wrestler:

“I remember someone saying, ‘Well, his a** is too big. His a** is too big, and it’s too soft.’ Wait a minute, where are we here? What are we doing? The crowd is telling you, this guy’s over. Our job is to put an a** every 18 inches in the stands! … [It was] Hunter. It was all about the workout s**t, man. Or how he looked in an 8×10 or whatever. He’s not gonna look the same because he’s not the same, and if all you’re gonna do is put out androids that all look alike, then what the hell do ya got? You’ve got no uniqueness. You’ve got no individuality. So that was the whole deal.”

CM Punk has also had some differences with Triple H’s wife, Stephanie McMahon. Punk never made his problems with The McMahon family a secret.

The Game did talk about trying to get in touch with CM Punk recently but did not know whether he would return to wrestling or not. Punk seems to have answered the question by making his debut for WWE’s rival brand in August 2021.
