WWE Hall of Famer Booker T recently took aim at new AEW signee CM Punk. The former World Champion did not take kindly to the straight edge star ripping into WWE as part of his introduction to All Elite Wrestling.
‘CM Punk came back and he had 10 full television minutes to go out there and make his point as far as Punk is coming back” Booker T began.
“He had the perfect crowd to be able to go out there and really’¦ I’m talking about, have a party up in that United Center. But, CM Punk came back and took his moment and chose to talk about WWE. That right there was a total miss as far as I’m concerned” the 5-time WCW Champion revealed.
“I just don’t think CM Punk delivered the way he could have, as far as a promo goes” Booker T added. “It didn’t feel a promo [to me].”
