Before the second night of SummerSlam, WWE star Drew McIntyre publicly mocked CM Punk, using humor to highlight a dramatic moment involving the wrestling icon. This incident, involving the WWE star’s jibe, attracted attention as fans witnessed the tension unfold just days before the major event in Jersey. The focus on CM Punk mocked by WWE star McIntyre became a trending topic among wrestling fans eager to see how this rivalry would evolve.
Drew McIntyre Capitalizes on CM Punk’s Title Setback
CM Punk, known as The Best in the World, has achieved notable milestones since returning to WWE, including headlining WrestleMania 41 earlier this year. He also came very close to fulfilling his second ambition of winning a World Title after a tough match with Gunther for the World Heavyweight Championship. However, his moment of triumph was unexpectedly stolen by Seth Rollins, who cashed in and claimed the title shortly after Punk’s victory.
While many fans were shocked by this turn of events, Drew McIntyre appeared to relish CM Punk’s setback. At a public appearance before SummerSlam Night 2, McIntyre humorously taunted the audience by mimicking one of Punk’s signature lines. Sharing the moment on his X (formerly Twitter) account, McIntyre said:
“Is it great to be alive in Jersey on a Sunday or what?”
—Drew McIntyre, WWE Star
He continued to mock CM Punk by adding another pointed remark:
“Karma’s a b***h, ain’t it Punk?”
—Drew McIntyre, WWE Star
Victory at SummerSlam and Plans for a New WWE Group
Drew McIntyre’s mood was lifted further after securing a win during SummerSlam, where he teamed up with Logan Paul to face Randy Orton and musical artist Jelly Roll. Despite suffering an RKO during the match, McIntyre’s team prevailed, with the Scottish star delivering a dominant performance over Jelly Roll.
The Scottish Warrior’s enthusiasm for collaborating with internet celebrities was evident, as he revealed ambitions to form a faction that includes prominent influencers such as Druski, KSI, Logan Paul, MrBeast, and Ishowspeed. McIntyre suggested this new stable could surpass the impact of The Undertaker’s legendary Ministry of Darkness faction in WWE history.
What This Means for WWE’s Landscape Going Forward
This public exchange and McIntyre’s ongoing success at SummerSlam illustrate the shifting dynamics within WWE’s roster and storylines. The playful but pointed mocking of CM Punk by a well-established star like Drew McIntyre could intensify their rivalry as the wrestling calendar progresses. Meanwhile, McIntyre’s idea of merging wrestling with influencer culture signals WWE’s interest in blending entertainment styles, potentially attracting a broader audience.
With big names involved and storylines developing rapidly, the future confrontations and alliances in WWE promise to keep fans engaged as new chapters unfold in this ongoing saga.
