CM Punk: When The Internet Is Mad At Me, I Just Chuckle Because Roddy Piper Liked Me

CM Punk doesn’t appear to care that the internet is mad at him over his latest incident at AEW All In.

All Elite Wrestling‘s CM Punk was awarded the Iron Mike Mazurki Award by the Cauliflower Alley Club. During Punk’s speech, he briefly mentioned the fact that the internet is mad at him.

While this would bother most people, Punk claims it makes him chuckle. His reason was that people like Roddy Piper, Dusty Rhodes, and Harley Race liked him, and that meant more to him than anything else.

“When people tell me that they don’t like me or that the internet is mad at me, I just chuckle because Roddy Piper liked me. Dusty Rhodes liked me, and Harley Race liked me. And that means more than anything else in the world because these legends put their stamp on me before anyone else did. It gave me the confidence, and it gave me the ability to succeed.” [H/T: Slam Wrestling]
