CM Punk Calls For Rey Mysterio To Shave Seth Rollins' Head

It's all just a little bit of history repeating...

Aug 11, 2020 August 11th, 2020

God love CM Punk. Even though his in-ring days seem (sadly) a thing of the past, the Straight-Edge Superstar can’t help but chime in and poke fun at WWE’s ongoing storylines.

This time out, the Voice of the Voiceless has moved to encourage Rey Mysterio to shave the head of Seth Rollins… because that’s never been done before.

After Rey Rey took to Instagram to share his disdain at what Seth Rollins did to Rey’s son Dominik on last night’s Raw, CM Punk casually quipped how maybe Rey should shave Rollins’ head in an act of retribution.

Of course, it was Rey Mysterio who shaved CM Punk’s head back as 2010’s Over the Limit PPV. That came when Punk was in the midst of his Straight-Edge Society phase that largely helped WWE brass realise that this CM Punk fella was a talent worth keeping an eye on.

While the Second City Saint is still retired from in-ring action, Dominik Mysterio and Seth Rollins will do battle at WWE SummerSlam on August 23.

Many are expecting Rey or even maybe Samoa Joe to interfere in that SummerSlam match, but who’s to say that somehow, someway it’s not Punk running down to the ring for the save?
