WWE Superstar Drew McIntyre has reacted to CM Punk's furious outburst on tonight's episode of RAW. Punk verbally ripped The Rock, John Cena, and Seth Rollins in his promo.

CM Punk isn't happy one bit about the events last weekend. Seth Rollins cost him an opportunity to headline WrestleMania 41 during the final moments of the Men's Elimination Chamber match. Shortly after, John Cena turned heel and joined forces with The Rock.

Punk took massive shots at The Final Boss on RAW, and his former rival Drew McIntyre couldn't help but react to it. He replied to a 14 years old post from The Rock and told Punk to cry more.

"14 years on and still relevant. Cry more you bi*ch Punk. I’ll see you down the line," Drew wrote.

The post that Drew McIntyre replied to was made by The Rock in 2011, mere days after Punk's iconic Pipebomb promo on RAW. The Great One took a personal shot at Punk in his post and said he draws more money in a night than Punk will in a lifetime.

14 years later, Punk is still waiting to headline WrestleMania, and judging by what happened last weekend, he might not be headlining The Show of Shows this year. WrestleMania 41 will be headlined by John Cena vs Cody Rhodes in an Undisputed WWE title match.

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.
