BREAKING NEWS: CM Punk replaces Cody Rhodes in WWE Title Match against Sami Zayn: Raw highlights
Video Overview & Insights
After Gunther took Cody Rhodes out of action earlier in the night, Chicago’s own CM Punk replaces The American Nightmare to battle Sami Zayn for the Undisputed WWE Title. Catch WWE action on the ESPN App, Netflix, USA Network, CW Network, Peacock and more.
I’ve seen some people say online that they think Punk is taking enhancement stuff. He’s 218 pounds I’m 210 with a medium mixed build of muscle, fat, and I’m just built wide. That’s insanity to think he’s unnaturally built. I think he’s in the best shape of his life like a lot the older wrestlers are nowadays cause you care about your body more when you get older and realize you didn’t take care of it much in your 20’s and 30’s.

I'm more surprised that WWE gave the Wrestling Observer a shoutout with the 'Match of the Year' candidate comment. They don't usually like to give Meltzer any press.

Why the hell was Punk stood outside the back doors of an arena waiting for the shutters to be opened to gain access? Are we to believe that seconds before the shutters came up he was buzzing the intercom?
"Hi, its CM Punk here, can you let me in, gotta wrestle a match, im in my gear and everything".

The screwed over Sami period.
@luckythomas6229As a CM Punk fan, this should have been LA Knight. I get why it's Punk because Punk vs Cody is a big match to try and sell Summer Slam tickets, but if there wasn't a big PLE like SS coming up, this would have been the perfect way to put the belt on Knight.
Only thing is the promo he cut earlier in the night would have to have not been made so he didn't look like a hypocrite.
This sucks, it went from idiot to another 🙄
@PhilSingh-f5cWhoever couldve seen this coming
@TatsuoYamashita01FINALLY IM GOING TO BUY MY NETFLIX SUBSCRIPTION TO WATCH RAW AGAIN.! !! THE KING IS BACK ...WELCOME BACK CM PUNK,
@BRUCE_WAYNE5Ppl have to understand Sami is not championship material lol let him go to aew
@jacksonhex7792Sammy sucks 🤮
@user-ye9ph5iq5zHis shirt reminds me of Cena's "Rise Above Hate" shirt
@CSC_07Worst case scenario
@mj9193So, Cody is EITHER injured OR taking a Romanesque style vacation. Hence, Cody's absence allows WWE creative/booking time to plan and extend Cody vs Punk for a championship at Survivor Series or 2027 Wrestlemania. We get another Cody/Gunther feud as well as Punk vs Sami to fill the time until Randy Orton or Kevin Owens returns for a segment vs CM PUNK,
@LoneWolf423892:26 It was at this moment, that Sami Zayn knew he was f***ed
@WeeklyWrapUpAt least it wasn't WrestleMania 9 when Hulk Hogan buried Yokozuna after he defeated Bret Hart for The WWF Winged Eagle Championship in Vegas Caesar's Palace. 😂
@HipHopJunkyForeverChicago Made Punk
@HipHopJunkyForever“Hey im just gonna jump up on this guardrail if you don’t mind taking a video of my balls in these little underwear’s I’m wearing I’d appreciate it”
@aleiterfulI knew it.. those buffed pictures were just edited or exag
@jmrjhulkItssssss clobbering timeeee. Never gets old!
@caltrops11Wait no i actually like this main event version of sami, with the slicked back hair wait no
@knotvocalcovers5436Now Sami an jey have somthing in common now 😂😂😂😂😂
@NathanielSmithlllThe goat is back we can now start watching WWE again
@itumelengmokone8597Cm punk going to sd
@sayemahmed688Seems like Adam is trying to screw sami
@robertsneed1571Thank goodness, wasn't watching while that homeless moron was champ.
@Avidavdon't like how they spoil it now...
@traviscopeland7408😂 This was super stupid making Zayn "Champion" to loose it before the next big event. He should hang his boots 👢 and start selling pop corn 🍿 to the crowd.
@edyjacky14I am half and half on this decision I think Sami Zayn has done so much he deserves to be the top guy but then again I understand why they chose CM Punk for too because he's going to Smackdown but as champion is kinda crazy because Sami deserves to be champion this is one reason why I don't like Triple H being in charge at all because he's making championship reigns like Sami Zayn's so short I think that he doesn't like him and I think that he should go somewhere else because obviously his hard work and sacrifice and dedication isn't valued enough by Triple H but like everybody else that's just my opinion but there's some good decisions that he makes but other one's are just bad 💯
@AmandaCarter-n2pSami is a lucky mid carder with very little fan support that won the WWE title
@prophetjuan8927So u have a match for the number one contender only to replace the winner with someone else. Who the hell is writing these storylines. Literally one of the stupidest things I have seen
@bjgolden304Well that was fun while it lasted for Sami....
@hellothere00Cm ounk needs to go back to his straight edge music one time
@BiRdMaN83Finally, CM Punk is back.
@Edgar-uw5izGreat to see this young man return to WWE. He is the youngest ever WWE champion at the age of 23, this young man cm punk.
