During a recent edition of the NotSam Wrestling podcast, Sam Roberts stated that Punk proved a lot to himself with his victory last week. He added that the Second City Saint's recent work against Drew McIntyre and Seth Rollins after an injury proved the eight-time WWE champion to be "unstoppable."
“I think he was really, in a very real way, I think Phil Brooks, after that match with Seth Rollins, proved everything to himself… He had three great matches with Drew, one of them on People's list of Match of the Year… and now he has this incredible match with Seth Rollins in the main event of the biggest RAW in the history of the industry. And he's having a good time, and he's happy. I think that was a real person that was letting some steam off and letting everybody know that this feeling that he's got now—he's unstoppable,” stated Sam Roberts. [56:07 onwards]
