CM Punk and Paul Heyman are reunited as a result of a long-held favor. During last night’s SmackDown episode in Chicago, Punk revealed the favor that has been owed to him for years.
The favor dates back to 2006 when Heyman was fired by Vince McMahon and Punk’s ally was gone from WWE. On his way out the door, Punk asked Heyman what he could do for him, and the response was to force WWE to deal with “us” at WrestleMania. With Punk now main eventing WrestleMania 41, the favor has been fulfilled.
Heyman initially refused to fulfill the promise, citing that Paul loves Roman Reigns and needs his support. However, Punk’s actions spoke louder than words, as he attacked Reigns with a GTS. This led to Heyman making a surprising decision: to join CM Punk in his corner at WrestleMania 41.
The outcome has sparked mixed reactions among fans, leaving the question of what this means for Roman Reigns’ chances at WrestleMania 41.
