Punk, Waller, and SmackDown Notes2:19 – 3:56

Matt MarburyHost

2:19

Man, dude, skipping ahead a little bit with that, Kevin Owens' CM Punk thing was awesome, but they were also touting the fact that Punk was going to be at NXT in Louisiana or something.

Matt MarburyHost

2:30

Did you see the backstage thing with him and Grayson Waller? Saw a blurb.

Matt MarburyHost

2:35

Yeah, dude.

Matt MarburyHost

2:35

Heath Grayson gave him the business.

Matt MarburyHost

2:37

What are

Adam TollefsonHost

2:38

you doing in my show?

Matt MarburyHost

2:39

My house.

Matt MarburyHost

2:40

And he's like, I'm not a fan of you.

Matt MarburyHost

2:41

I'm not a fan of you.

Matt MarburyHost

2:44

Punk just gets a lot of hate everywhere he goes.

Matt MarburyHost

2:46

Probably deservedly so.

Matt MarburyHost

2:47

You don't get to burn all these bridges and then just expect them to magically reappear.

Adam TollefsonHost

2:51

Right.

Adam TollefsonHost

2:52

And maybe him and Grayson are best buds behind the scenes.

Matt MarburyHost

2:55

You never

Adam TollefsonHost

2:55

know.

Adam TollefsonHost

2:55

I don't think that's the case with Kevin.

Adam TollefsonHost

2:57

I don't

Matt MarburyHost

2:58

either.

Matt MarburyHost

2:58

Oh, man.

Adam TollefsonHost

3:00

I guess they cut a bunch of stuff from SmackDown, too.

Adam TollefsonHost

3:02

Did you see the Shinsuke vignette?

Matt MarburyHost

3:05

I saw the Shinsuke vignette when I was scrolling, but I thought I just missed it on the show.

Matt MarburyHost

3:10

Didn't

Adam TollefsonHost

3:11

make the show.
