CM Punk is on his road to WrestleMania.
CM Punk may have lost at WWE SummerSlam, but he was happy to be in Baltimore and on WWE Raw, because he was back. He returned to the ring at WWE SummerSlam, five months after he tore his triceps, when he was told he would be out for nine months.
Punk said that while most people start their road to WrestleMania in January, his started at SummerSlam.
Punk may have lost to McIntyre, but he got back up and was ready to keep fighting. He called out McIntyre, but instead got Seth Rollins.
Rollins and Punk came face-to-face and ready to fight, until they were interrupted by McIntyre, who was in the crowd. McIntyre tried to get their attention, but Rollins and Punk never wavered from each other's eyes, until McIntyre mentioned that he still had the Larry & AJ bracelet.
Punk then took off after McIntyre.
"They said nine months and I did it in FIVE!"
