CM Punk did "Deadlift Wednesday" on a Thursday and was feeling so out of sorts that he decided to host a Twitter Q&A.
Punk was asked a variety of questions ranging from hockey to movies and of course wrestling. In one tongue in cheek answer, Punk was asked who he sees as the "next megastar" in wrestling. Punk replied, "there is nobody." Another user chimed in saying, "Is that in part because you retired just before it was your turn to put young guys over?"
Punk replied, "I put over such young lions that are the future of the business like the undertaker, hhh, the rock, and brock lesnar! The future looks good!"
You can check out highlights from the Q&A session in the embedded tweets below.
