CM Punk and Cody Rhodes didn't disappoint with their war of words during the January 22, 2023, edition of Monday Night Raw.
On this week's Raw, CM Punk and Cody Rhodes came face-to-face in a meeting of WWE's two most-popular Superstars. Punk kicked things off by bringing up Dusty Rhodes and recalled the late Hall of Famer asking Punk to watch over a young Cody in OVW in 2007. Punk added he was proud of Rhodes for becoming a big superstar in recent years.
Punk then spoke of this weekend's Men's Royal Rumble match, and said he plans on breaking his promise to Dusty (by not watching over Cody and winning the match.) Punk even claimed he'd single out Cody in the match. Punk went even further when he said that his dad was an electrician, before saying that he is more of the American Dream than Cody is.
Not to be outdone, Cody fired right back at the Best in the World and brought up Punk's infamous 2011 pipebomb. Rhodes gave Punk props, saying his words inspired countless wrestlers competing today, including himself.
Rhodes then brought up Punk's 2014 walkout and pointed out that for all his claims during the pipebomb, Punk didn't do any of them. CM Punk teased joining New Japan Pro Wrestling or returning to Ring of Honor during the 2011 Pipebomb, but did neither. Cody also mentioned that he went to the places Punk claimed he'd go.
