CM Punk exorcised some demons at WWE Raw on Netflix premiere, defeating Seth Rollins in the main event.
Speaking to Jackie Redmond after the match, Punk issued a warning to the rest of the roster and dedicated the match to two friends going through tough times.
"46 is just a number, and so is number one. That's exactly what I am and exactly what I have been saying since I got here in 2005. Yeah, maybe I took a ten-year vacation, but I'm back and better than ever. Nobody is touching me. BITW. Best in the World, that's what it means. Straight Edge, it means I'm better than you. I'm coming for all the gold in 2025. Royal Rumble, Elimination Chamber, WrestleMania. Netflix, biggest thing I've ever done in my entire life. This match is for Chad Gilbert. This match is for Chris Bey. This match is for me and anybody who ever said that I wasn't shit. Look at me now.
"46 is just a number. One through 30, just numbers. Royal Rumble, you're next on the list. Gunther, I'm coming for you. Cody, I'm coming for you. I'm Mr. October. I'm Game 7. I am clutch. I am the best in the world."
Gilbert is the guitarist for New Found Glory who has been diagnosed with cancer multiple times. Bey is a wrestler for TNA who suffered a neck injury in October.
