CM Punk Reveals WWE Opponents He Wants Next

CM Punk has a hit list—and he’s ready to start checking names off one by one.

After being betrayed by Paul Heyman during the WrestleMania 41 Saturday main event and watching Seth Rollins and Bron Breakker align against him, Punk came back swinging. He recently cost Rollins the World Heavyweight Title on RAW, and now, he’s plotting who he wants in the ring next.

Speaking with Netflix’s Tudum, Punk opened up about the current WWE roster and didn’t hold back on who he wants to mix it up with. He gave props to Rhea Ripley, Liv Morgan, GUNTHER, and Finn Bálor, but it’s what came next that really grabbed attention.

“Guys I want to work with — Jacob Fatu. Got a little taste at WarGames, but one-on-one stuff is my bread and butter,” Punk said, clearly gunning for the United States Champion.

And Punk’s not done digging up old grudges either. “…Finn Bálor is fantastic. I selfishly want to lock back up with Rey Mysterio, teach him a lesson for having such a brat kid.”

CM Punk vs. Jacob Fatu? Punk vs. Rey Mysterio one more time? It’s clear The Second City Saint isn’t just back for a nostalgia run—he wants real fights and real receipts.
