Roman Reigns Slams CM Punk, Says A Match “Doesn’t Do Anything For Him”
That would be a dream match. The battle lines have been drawn between WWE and AEW, as both companies clearly have their eyes on each other in one way or another. You do not get to see something like this very often but it can make for some very interesting moments. Some of the biggest are when one top star takes aim at another, and that is the case all over again.
In an interview with Complex, WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns was asked about a potential match with AEW’s CM Punk. Reigns said that if there was a clamor for the match that couldn’t be ignored, he wouldn’t say no, but the match does nothing for him on a personal level. Reigns sees Punk as older and having lost a step, along with saying that Punk’s size would hinder him. After Punk’s losses in the UFC, Reigns does not believe that Punk could hang with an athlete of his caliber. The two have met in one singles match, with Reigns defeating Punk on the January 6, 2014 Monday Night Raw.
There is a bit of history here. Check out what the two have done together, plus their individual efforts:

Opinion: While I can’t imagine this match happening for a very long time to come, it is one of those things that is fun to think about. You don’t get to see legitimate dream matches like this very often and there is always a chance that it could happen down the road. Punk has looked rather good now that he is back in the ring and it would be nice to see that continue for a long time to com. Just like Reigns holding the title.
