#4 Triple H's heat with CM Punk

It is a well-known rumor that Triple H and CM Punk never really got along. Bruce Prichard had revealed that Hunter was never really pleased with CM Punk and did not consider him to be a major deal.

He had also stated that Shawn Michaels and Triple H did not particularly like Punk and thought of him as 'unclean'. Triple H allegedly believed that the master of the GTS did not have 'it' in him and had too many attitude problems. Triple H had also referred to Punk as a 'waffle house cook'.

It is believed that one of the major reasons Punk had left before WrestleMania 30 was due to his disagreement over booking plans for a match against Triple H at the grand event.
