Former WWE World Heavyweight Champion CM Punk, recently took part in an interview with the UK’s The Sun. Here are some highlights from the interview:
I’d like to ask you about your contemporaries, you have worked with some of TNA’s current roster, including the likes of AJ Styles, Samoa Joe and Chris Daniels. Do you still keep up to date with them and their careers?
Not that I should shed light on my personal life, but I’ve just recently stayed at Joe’s house in Florida for a few nights, we just hung out, never mentioned wrestling and relaxed. He’s still my best friend. It’s awesome to just chill out and relax by the pool that way.
Umaga and Ken Kennedy have both left the WWE recently. We’ve heard these were due to wellness policy violations, is this something WWE are still having trouble with?
I honestly don’t know why, I was confused when Ken got let go, I’m unsure if it was down to his injuries or what. Umaga’s the same and I really don’t know why they were let go. It’s a personal thing and I don’t like to ask things like that, I’m not a gossipy guy, so it’s nothing I really get involved in at all.
Finally, would you ever consider a jump ship to another company?
No, I’d not jump ship, this is the place to be, nowhere comes close and I’m happy here. We don’t really have any competition and if you want to be a top class professional wrestler in the US you have to be working for the WWE.
