WWE Raw: CM Punk Heated Comments Towards Pat McAfee & TKO CEO Ari Emanuel, ‘Lower The Ticket Prices!’

CM Punk had some heated comments regarding Pat McAfee and TKO CEO Ari Emanuel during tonight’s episode of WWE Raw.

Punk opened the show tonight, and with Roman Reigns absent this week, Punk cut a ‘pipe bomb’ promo on Reigns and brought up some other names as well.

Among those names were Pat McAfee and Ari Emanuel after McAfee’s controversial return on WWE SmackDown this past Friday, which was a move that Emanuel was behind, not WWE creative.

In Punk’s message to McAfee, he said:

“If you want to talk about ticket sales, call up that agent that was foolish enough to shoehorn you into this business and this show, and tell him to LOWER THE TICKET PRICES!”

Punk also referenced Vince McMahon tonight during his heated words towards Roman Reigns, saying:

“You are just a buck-toothed nepo baby who ate dog food for a weird old man. And that weird old man for years treated me like a dog and he expected me to smile, but I had ‘F you’ money so I took that and my dignity and I left.”

WWE Stars Moving To Raw After WrestleMania 42

With WrestleMania generally marking the end of the ‘season’ for WWE, there may be some roster changes coming after the event.

In terms of some names who could potentially join the Raw brand, there are some potential NXT call-ups including Jacy Jayne, Joe Hendry, Ethan Page and Ricky Saints that could be on their way.

Those names could join either WWE Raw or SmackDown at this point, but they would certainly fit in on Raw if that ends up being their destination.

There are also some names who could move over from SmackDown – perhaps the Street Profits who have been off TV for a few months now and could give a helping hand to the WWE Raw tag team division which hasn’t been prominent for a while and could do with a boost.

Also, while he has been appearing on Raw in the lead-up to his match against CM Punk, Roman Reigns is technically still on the SmackDown roster, and if he wins the World Heavyweight Championship from Punk in the WrestleMania main event, the move could become permanent.
