CM Punk stated that hell froze over when he returned to WWE at WWE Survivor Series 2023 and posted a photo with Triple H.
The two men famously clashed on screen and behind the scenes when Triple H was an active performer in the early 2010s, but time and a conversation healed wounds, setting the table for Punk's return.
Speaking to High Performance, Triple H commented on his current relationship with Punk and how they work things out if there are creative differences.
"We've had a couple of moments since his return, there was one moment where he'd return and they told him something creatively and they told me, 'He does not like this.' I was like, 'Okay, I'll talk to him.' Went and talked to him. 'What's going on?' I told him the creative and he was like, 'That's good, whatever.' I was like, 'I know you don't like it. Everybody's told me. Let's be open.' He complained about what it was and I said, 'Let's go sit and talk about it and come up with something good.' That sort of changed, it was like a paradigm shift for us relationship-wise, and now, it's a funny thing for me to say, sitting down and being collaborative with CM Punk is one of my favorite things in TV because he shares a very similar view at the end of the day of the business as I do," said Triple H.
Punk is set to headline WrestleMania for the first time when he competes against Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns in the main event of WrestleMania 41 Saturday.
