CM Punk references Vince McMahon in blockbuster promo battle with Seth Rollins; explains WWE exit

CM Punk came face-to-face with Seth Rollins tonight on WWE RAW. He referenced Vince McMahon in his promo.

CM Punk's exit from the WWE 10 years ago is well documented. He had a controversial departure when he walked out of the company. While the Stamford-based promotion has accepted him back with open arms, the same can't be said about some of its talent, particularly Seth Rollins, who has been vocal about Punk's return.

It was clear since Punk's return that the two men were headed to a collision course. This finally happened after Survivor Series when Punk and Rollins came to blows with each other in the ring. These two men are set to lock horns next week during RAW's debut on Netflix.

Rollins and Punk met tonight on WWE RAW before their highly anticipated match. The Visionary accused the Straight-Edge Superstar of taking his ball and going home. Punk replied that he loved the WWE but hated the man in charge. This was his direct reference to Vince McMahon, who was the CEO and Chairman when Punk left.

It will be interesting to see whether Seth Rollins can get his revenge on CM Punk next week.
