CM Punk likes Danhausen using a "kneevil" GTS but KENTA apparently still has heat with CM Punk over the signature move.
Tonight during Ring of Honor's 19th Anniversary Danhausen used a GTS and said he stole it from the former WWE Champion. In response, CM Punk said he liked the move for Danhausen but that Hausen should ask "the other guy."
You might wanna buzz the other guy because he seems sensitive about it. Fully endorsed over here though! Very kneevil.

The "other guy" Punk is referring to is KENTA, the innovator of the move. On Twitter, KENTA told Punk he was happy to see anyone but him use the move.
HEY This is “THE OTHER GUY”

I’m super excited to see anyone use Go 2 Sleep EXCEPT FOR YOU.

In the past, CM Punk has admitted to stealing the move from KENTA when he made the transition from the Anaconda Vice in the late-2000s. Even Colby Covington called him out for it in the past.
“@JCV1994: @CMPunk how did you come up with the GTS?”

Stole it from KENTA! That's right.
Speaking of plagiarizing... @CMPunk, you ever pay Kenta for stealing all his moves? Too bad you can't steal mine to win a real fight you poser.
