Back in 2013, CM Punk dropped another pipebomb, where he criticized WWE Hall of Famer Bruno Sammartino and stated that his schedule was tougher than Sammartino's. Although Bruno praised Punk for his heelish promo, fellow WWE Hall of Famer Billy Graham didn't take it well. He proceeded to bash CM Punk for insulting Bruno Sammartino and added that Punk should've said no to the writers when they pitched him the line.

WWE Superstar Chris Jericho joined in on the feud and called out Graham, calling him a mark for taking Punk's promo too seriously. Here's what Jericho had to say to Graham:
Dear Superstar Billy Graham, Shut the hell up and stop being such a mark. Your Pal, Chris Jericho.
Jericho's insult resulted in Graham posting a long-winded rant in response. There's a happy ending to this story though, as Chris Jericho recently donated $1,500 to Graham's GoFundMe campaign.

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.
