The Second City Saint won a Gauntlet match earlier this month to earn a World Heavyweight Championship match against Gunther at SummerSlam this weekend. The Ring General lost the title to Jey Uso at WrestleMania 41, but won it back on the June 9 edition of RAW.

Punk challenged John Cena for the Undisputed WWE Championships at Night of Champions 2025 but came up short. Cody Rhodes won the King of the Ring Tournament to earn a title match against John Cena at SummerSlam 2025.

Bill Apter reacts to former WWE star's criticism of CM Punk

Legendary wrestling journalist Bill Apter recently commented on former WWE star Matt Riddle claiming CM Punk was difficult to work with.

Speaking on Sportskeeda's The Wrestling Time Machine podcast, Apter claimed that Punk had changed over the years, and he was not the same guy that he used to be. The veteran noted that Riddle was entitled to his opinion, but he did not agree with it.

"Matt what are you smoking? [...] My feeling is I have been backstage where CM Punk is, everybody is hugging him and high-fiving him. It's not the same Punk that was so pissed off and angry such a long time ago. It's a different guy. Matt and he probably had a lot of problems with each other, and if Matt wants to say that, that's his opinion but I don't share it." [0:53 onwards]
