WWE superstar CM Punk insisted he was ‘liable to get us cancelled’ before a scathing rant on Monday Night Raw.

The former world champion delivered a brutal takedown of Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson and John Cena following Elimination Chamber over the weekend, while his promo was littered with swearwords.

‘This is gonna be a lot of fun. Not for you, but for me,’ he said as he stood on top of the announce table. ‘I’m liable to get us cancelled off of Netflix right now.’

The streaming giant’s official X account shared screengrabs of his comments, and added: ‘CHILL @CMPunk!!!!!! #RawOnNetflix’

After calling out ‘bald fraud’ and real-life TKO director The Rock, Punk turned his attention to Cena, who betrayed the fans as he attacked Cody Rhodes in shocking scenes on Saturday night.

The actor-turned-Hollywood star stole the win in the Chamber as he capitalised on Seth Rollins’ attack and locked Punk in the STFU, with the 46-year-old wrestler passing out rather than quitting.

‘You can’t see me? Well now we can all see through you! You stole something from me in the Elimination Chamber, a match, that after 20 years of “Hustle, Loyalty and Respect”, I gave you the benefit of the doubt when you didn’t qualify,’ Punk said.

‘I thought what you did in the past secured your future. You’re not gonna fool me twice.

‘Hustle, loyalty and respect for 20 plus years, and now everybody sees what I’ve known all along, that you’ve been selling all these people, and all these kids bulls**t.’

Punk pointed out that he didn’t give up on Saturday, but insisted it’s a different story for Cena.

‘Ironically Mr. “Don’t Quit”, Mr. “Don’t Give Up”, you gave up on yourself. You gave up on all of these people, you gave up on all those kids,’ he continued.

‘The joke’s on you I’m gonna see you down the road, and I’m gonna get my hands on both of you bald frauds and when I do, you’re gonna “make a wish” that I never did!’

He soon moved on to Rollins, who hit Punk with a stomp after being eliminated from the Elimination Chamber, costing the Voice of the Voiceless a shot at facing Cody Rhodes for the Undisputed WWE Championship in the main event of WrestleMania.

‘Becky Lynch, you better come get your man because if I get to him before you do, I’m going to put him in a wheelchair,’ he said, referencing the Visionary’s real life wife.

This brought out Rollins as he and Punk brawled all over the arena in chaotic scenes, and general manager Adam Pearce confirmed they will battle at Madison Square Garden next week in a Steel Cage Match.

Netflix is the home of WWE in the UK.
