10 Reasons WWE Fans Are Still Chanting CM Punk’s Name
5. He Had Unresolved Heat With Triple H
So, let's all remember that one time that CM Punk called out Triple H for being a bad boss, then The Shield started attacking Punk. Let's also remember the Royal Rumble, where then-"Corporate Kane" yanked Punk out of the battle royal, ostensibly at the request of his immediate boss, Triple H. Let's also then consider that the logical end to all of this appeared to be Triple H wrestling CM Punk at Wrestlemania. For as awesome as Daniel Bryan tapping out Triple H to the Yes Lock was at Wrestlemania, imagine that being the Anaconda Vice and Triple H tapping wildly. WWE fans have long memories when it comes to being jaded over moments that they feel as though they deserved. For instance, for the rest of his refereeing career, Earl Hebner (even now working for TNA Wrestling) is serenaded by chants of "You Screwed Bret" in reference to the "Montreal Screwjob." Can we expect similar for Triple H for (in the eyes of some fans) screwing the WWE Universe out of a Wrestlemania moment? This is more-than-likely the case.
