Many WWE Superstars have expressed their desire to face CM Punk since his return to the company in 2023. One such name is Karrion Kross, who subtly hinted at a storyline with The Best in the World.
The Final Testament leader recently sat down for an interview with Bully Ray and host Dave LaGreca on the Busted Open podcast. LaGreca asked Kross whether there was anyone on the RAW roster whom he believed would be the perfect opponent for him from a storyline perspective.
Initially, the two-time NXT Champion hesitated to name-drop someone, as he felt it could hinder the possibility of WWE booking him in a program with the said wrestler. Bully Ray agreed with Karrion Kross' opinion.
Later, The Herald of Doomsday hinted at a potential feud with CM Punk, saying that everyone should keep an eye on the clock because "clobbering time" would eventually arrive. By using Punk's signature phrase, Karrion Kross subtly expressed his interest in a feud with the former WWE Champion.
