Monday Night Raw kicks off with a bang.
Coming off a successful night at WWE Survivor Series: War Games, CM Punk opened the December 2 edition of WWE Raw and had a lot to say, implying that he's now on the road to capturing gold at WrestleMania. After bragging about having a favor or two in his pocket, Punk invited fans to take a journey with him to WrestleMania.
Then, Seth Rollins hit the ring to a massive reaction. Rollins claimed that he should have knocked down Punk the second he came back but instead got caught up in championship runs while Punk was on the shelf due to injury.
Punk responded and dismissed Rollins, saying he's not running races with people that he didn't know he was racing with anymore. Punk then continued to tear down Rollins and said that he's not in his future and that he doesn't think about him at all. Punk finished off this portion of the segment by saying that he's got things to do in this business and that Rollins needs to stay out of his business.
Rollins reminded Punk that this is his business before knocking him on his ass. After a brief brawl, Sami Zayn and Jey Uso hit the ring to break things up.

Uso walked away from the ring with Punk while Zayn kept Rollins inside of the ring. Rollins scolded Punk and Uso for running away, saying that they should just run along to Roman Reigns. Zayn confronted Rollins for these comments, saying that he shouldn't talk to Uso that way.
Rollins responded by confronting Zayn, saying that he stabbed him in the back when he teamed with CM Punk. Zayn fired back by calling Rollins stubborn, saying that he wanted to team with him instead of Punk.
"We wouldn't have had to team with CM PUNK if YOU teamed with us in the first place but you couldn't because YOU'RE TOO DAMN STUBBORN!" --

Rollins then brought up the fact that Reigns treated Zayn like crap for years and reminded him of the takedown of The Bloodline at WrestleMania 40. After reminding Zayn that Reigns hasn't apologized or changed, Rollins straight up called Zayn stupid.
Rollins and Zayn finished the segment by agreeing to face off in a match later that night.
