CM Punk is not a fan of pyro.
At WrestleMania 28, CM Punk made his entrance as WWE Champion against Chris Jericho and received a giant pyro and fireworks display as "Cult of Personality" played.
Punk was not happy.
"I don’t think I’ve ever pictured myself as ‘guy standing on the second rope holding up a title while they waste money on pyro and confetti.’ I screamed at Kevin Dunn, I can’t remember what Mania it was, when I got all that pyro. So pissed off. I do not need it, do not want it. It’s a crutch. It is a crutch. ‘They spent all this money on this bullshit. This guy must be important.’ Awesome entrance music sets the mood. Pyro just makes dogs angry," Punk told David Shoemaker and Kazeem Famuyide on the Masked Man Show.
Punk competed in the main event of WrestleMania 41 Saturday against Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins.
