CM Punk will be missing WrestleMania 40 due to a torn triceps injury, but Ace Steel believes his comeback will be an even bigger deal.
Steel recently appeared on the “Two Man Power Trip of Wrestling” podcast to discuss his good friend missing this year’s WrestleMania pay-per-view event due to an injury, his eventual return, and more.
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On CM Punk missing WrestleMania due to the injury: “I wanted to see [Punk] make that run to WrestleMania to the point where I kept thinking ‘Should I go?’ I love watching wrestling from home because I don’t have to see people bouncing in and out of me or whatever. I’m sure I would’ve had great seats, a great viewing platform there, but yeah, just a killer.”
On Punk’s eventual return: “All I can think about is the comeback is going to be even more special. We have a nice reason for it happening. We have Drew McIntyre taking credit for it in such a heel storyline, elevating Drew McIntyre to this dirty son of a bitch that prayed for you to get hurt. What a line. [Punk] now has a dragon to slay when he comes back, like ‘I’m coming for you. I’m coming for your head.’ So when the time is right, the place is just going to unload.”
