10 Wrestlers That Told You They Were Pissed

In which CM Punk crosses another imaginary line, and Triple H is all too keen to tell him about it.

Coming at the climax of what felt like a weekly beef session between the two, the 'Voice Of The Voiceless' invoked Stephanie McMahon while questioning the guts of 'The Game', before patronisingly slapping him in the face with his own tie.

It was a burn and a f*cking half judging by the reaction, and Punk's music hitting resulted in the rare case of Hunter not getting the last word. Offering a pithy applause, a sarcastic "oh, congratulations" and a few other choice off-mic remarks, the prodigal son-in-law looked incensed at being shown up in the game he was only "That Damn Good" at because he'd rigged it.

Punk got away with it that night, but months of abysmal booking and a pay-per-view match between the two that he lost was all he needed to be reminded of the realities of his doomed situation.
