The WWE universe has been abuzz with the resurgence of a long-standing feud between two of the company’s biggest stars. CM Punk, the self-proclaimed “Best in the World,” has once again fired a verbal warning shot at Drew McIntyre, “The Scottish Warrior.” This time, Punk’s comments came during an interview discussing the upcoming WWE 2K26 video game.
In a recent sit-down with a popular gaming publication, Punk was asked about his thoughts on the new WWE 2K26 game, which features a robust roster of WWE Superstars past and present. While discussing his own in-game character and accomplishments, Punk couldn’t resist taking a shot at McIntyre, who has been on a tear of late, winning several high-profile matches and earning the respect of fans and peers alike.
A War of Words Continues
CM Punk’s comments about McIntyre were laced with his signature sarcasm and wit. When asked about the current crop of WWE talent, Punk quipped, “It’s great to see guys like Drew McIntyre out there doing what they do best – getting beat by me…I mean, getting beat by other people. At least, that’s what the game says, right?” The comment was a clear jab at McIntyre, who has been on a hot streak in the ring, but still hasn’t managed to conquer the likes of CM Punk.
This isn’t the first time Punk has taken aim at McIntyre. The two have a long history of verbal sparring, dating back to their early days on the independent circuit. While their rivalry has ebbed and flowed over the years, it seems that Punk is once again ready to reignite the flames and challenge McIntyre to a physical showdown.
Backstage Reaction
According to sources close to the WWE locker room, the comments from Punk have been met with a mix of amusement and frustration from McIntyre and his fellow Superstars. “Drew is definitely fired up about the comments,” said one insider. “He’s been saying for a while now that he’s ready to put CM Punk in the ring and put an end to this back-and-forth. This latest jab from Punk is just fuel for the fire.”
