Pat McAfee To CM Punk: When That TKO Merch Check Comes Through, Does It Go To The Needy Wrestling Families Who Can’t Afford WrestleMania Tickets Or The Bank Account Titled, ‘I’m Sorry, Saudi Arabia’

Pat McAfee responds to CM Punk.

Earlier this week on WWE Raw, CM Punk cut a promo where he discussed Pat McAfee, among other things. Punk referred to him as Pat MAGAfee and also responded to his comments about ticket sales. The Cult of Personality asked Pat to talk to his “agent” and ask him to lower the price instead.

On the 4/10 WWE SmackDown, Pat McAfee made an appearance where he responded to CM Punk.

“You cheer for these spineless bums like CM Punk. Did you like what he had to say on Monday when he called me Pat MAGAfee? See, for me, an adult with a brain, it’s hard to take serious. Because, as CM Punk was talking the other night about a lot of people that are a lot more important, a lot more famous, and a lot more in shape than he is. It was hard for me to get past the fact that he was wearing a WWE officially licensed CM Punk jacket. Underneath that was a WWE officially licensed t-shirt from WWEShop.com. He’s got 283 things for sale to all of you. I wonder to myself, when that TKO merch check comes through, which account does it go to? Does it go to the needy wrestling families who can’t afford WrestleMania tickets? Or, just simple question and I have a sneaky suspicion that money from the TKO merch account goes right into the bank account titled, ‘I’m sorry, Saudi Arabia.’ He’s a fraud like a politician – all talk, no action. A man who has the opportunity to change things, but he gets into a room, he sits down, gets on his stomach, and he rolls over like the little bitch that he is.”

“You were talking about the Attitude Era last week… hey bud, that was 30 years ago. Randy Orton debuted in 2002, he watched the Attitude Era in high school. You talk about fans, the IWC, the marks.” pic.twitter.com/NZaKDcFGhO
