#4 CM Punk's birthday wish to Rey Mysterio's daughter

The road to WrestleMania 26 saw CM Punk and his Straightedge Society set their sights on Rey Mysterio. The match was set for The Show of Shows, with Mysterio coming out on top in front of a packed stadium in Arizona.

What the WWE Universe most remembers from this rivalry is a segment that aired on SmackDown Live in the weeks leading to WrestleMania.

Mysterio came out with his family and addressed the crowd. It didn't take long for Punk and his sidekicks to come out and confront the family. Punk proceeded to harass Rey in front of his wife and children. He finished it off with singing "Happy birthday" to Rey's daughter, in one of the creepiest and disturbing visuals you'll ever witness. He also slapped Rey right in the middle of the ring, and the segment left a bad taste in the mouths of the fans present in the arena that night.

He completed his MBA from the Symbiosis Institute of Telecom Management in 2016 and worked with multiple banking institutions, including Tech Mahindra. While he started writing WWE articles for Sportskeeda in 2019 as a hobby, it eventually became a significant part of his professional journey.

Abhilash checks his articles thrice before sending them to the editing team, ensuring his work is highly accurate and reliable.

He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.

Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.

When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
