Roman Reigns Says He’s Going To Make WWE ‘Worth Every Single Dollar’ Again After Beating CM Punk At WrestleMania 42

Roman Reigns and CM Punk are ready for war in Las Vegas.

Just six days before their match at WrestleMania 42, Roman Reigns and CM Punk met in the ring to cap off the go-home edition of WWE Raw. Reigns was out first, drawing a major reaction from the crowd as usual.

After rattling off his introduction, ‘OTC1’ was interrupted by Punk, who walked through the crowd with his entrance music blasting. Punk got on the apron and made it clear that he hates Reigns because he envies his success with championships and WrestleMania main events.

Punk continued on and apologized for previously bringing up Sika Anoa’i, the father of Roman Reigns. He also admitted that he envied the fact that Reigns was born into a dynasty. Instead, Punk celebrated the fact that he found his family in locker rooms on the independent scene.

Continuing on, Punk closed out his portion of the promo by saying that he hates that he has to share his first singles WrestleMania main event with Reigns.

Reigns fired back and admitted that he also envies Punk in some ways. After admitting that he hopes fans are still chanting his name for ten years after he’s gone, Reigns locked in and said that he’s going to bring an end to Punk’s nostalgia act experiment at WrestleMania.
