The simmering feud between CM Punk and Drew McIntyre reached a pivotal moment during tonight’s Monday Night RAW, with Punk’s scratching remarks and McIntyre’s fiery response injecting a fresh twist into their ongoing rivalry.
Following the announcement that The Scottish Warrior had been sidelined from the King of the Ring tournament due to not being cleared for in-ring action, tensions were palpable as Drew clashed with RAW General Manager Adam Pearce backstage before storming off in his car.

In a surprising turn of events, CM Punk made a surprise appearance in search of his rival, coincidentally pulling up at the exact location moments later.
Taking the opportunity to address McIntyre directly, the former WWE champion made his way to the ring, urging the audience to utilize their social media and inform McIntyre of his unexpected appearance.
Despite McIntyre’s absence, Punk seized the moment to reignite the verbal sparring between them, reminiscing on their tumultuous history dating back to the 2024 Royal Rumble.
While Drew McIntyre did not return to the arena, he did get the message that CM Punk came to the arena looking for him. He took to his X to send a bold response by setting the same CM Punk signed photo he acquired last week on fire and throwing the ashes on the ground.
With The Best in the World issuing a bold declaration and McIntyre sending an unknown yet intimidating response to his remarks, this adds a compelling layer to their evolving narrative, with fans anticipating what’s next for their feud.
