Seth Rollins has followed up on his heated reaction to CM Punk’s WWE return by firing yet another shot at the Best in the World.

After Punk made his return to his hometown faithful in Chicago, fans in attendance captured an irate Rollins flipping the former AEW star off and being held back by Michael Cole, Corey Graves and others.
While reports have suggested Rollins’ actions were to build an angle between the two, the World Heavyweight Champion has been outspoken in his genuine dislike for Punk in the past, adding a layer of ambiguity to the storyline.
While it remains to be seen if/how this will be followed up on during Punk’s return to Monday Night Raw tonight in Nashville, TN (November 27), Rollins has made his first proper comment on Punk at a WWE live event in Peoria, IL.
As captured by a fan in attendance, Rollins got a hold of a microphone after his match with Drew McIntyre and Shinsuke Nakamura and was met with chants for CM Punk.

This led to him to respond by saying:
“You already know how I feel about that, I said as much last night. I’m not going to waste any more breath on somebody that has been gone for eight years, has done nothing but try and tear this place down.
“Instead, I’m going to take my time, waste my breath, use my breath to talk about the people who have been here all along.
“That’s all the people in the back who have made WWE the hottest ticket in town, and that’s every single one of you who are here tonight in Peoria.”

Rollins’ promo and its theme of loyalty to WWE echoes some of his comments towards Cody Rhodes during their feud back in May 2022, where the Visionary made reference to Cody and The Elite trying to tear down what he had built in WWE.
As mentioned, CM Punk and WWE’s other massive returnee Randy Orton are both set to appear on tonight’s Raw from Nashville, TN.
