CM Punk will go head-to-head with Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns in a Triple Threat match at WrestleMania in Las Vegas. Meanwhile, Logan Paul, who eliminated Punk from this year's Rumble, recently called The Straight Edge Star out on his IMPAULSIVE podcast for being the reason why he wasn't allowed to compete in UFC.
CM Punk eliminated both Reigns and Rollins simultaneously from the Royal Rumble match. However, he was eliminated by Logan Paul shortly after. Before returning to professional wrestling in 2021, Punk had a short stint as an MMA fighter in UFC.
Logan Paul, while talking to UFC star Tom Aspinall on his podcast, blamed CM Punk for reducing his chances of competing in the UFC. Logan said he tried to approach Dana White, but he was completely ignored.
“He f*cked it up... After that Dana was like ‘I’m never doing this again.’ But dude, I’m not CM Punk. He’s a great wrestler, not a great UFC fighter. I think I would be a much better UFC fighter than I would just a boxer,” said Logan. (From 25:52 to 26:19)
