CM Punk: Just Like In The Past, If Anybody Messes With My Dog, I Hurt Them

CM Punk got revenge and his bracelet back against Drew McIntyre at WWE Bash In Berlin.

Punk defeated McIntyre in a strap match, retrieving his 'AJ Lee and Larry' bracelet and touching all four corners to pick up the victory. The rivalry between Punk and McIntyre became personal the moment McIntyre injured Punk at WWE Royal Rumble, and then gloated about, and only picked up when McIntyre stole Punk's bracelet.

Speaking to Jackie Redmond in a WWE exclusive, Punk was asked about getting his bracelet back.

"It feels good. A big deal has been made out of this, but it was really about the disrespect to my dog and my wife. I plan on going home and giving my dog and my wife a big hug and a kiss, maybe not in that order, but probably in that order, and move on to bigger and better things," he said.

Asked if his wife AJ had a message for Punk before the match, he replied, "She told me, anytime it involves Larry, she tells me to 'make sure you hurt them.' Just like in the past, if anybody messes with my dog, I hurt them. I think I hurt Drew and I can hopefully move on. I have gold on my mind."

Punk previously commented that he would be going after Gunther and the WWE World Heavyweight Title.
