CM Punk became “Doctor of Thuganomics” and insulted Cena, gave a verbal challenge before Night of Champions
CM Punk surprised everyone in the latest episode of WWE SmackDown when he replied to his old rival John Cena in his iconic style.
Last week, Cena copied Punk’s famous “Pipebomb” promo, threw him on a table and insulted him while sitting on the ring ropes. This week, Punk took revenge for that old moment.
In the main event of the show, Cena entered the ring first and called Punk. But when “Basic Thuganomics” music started and “PunkLife” appeared on screen, the whole arena was shocked.
Punk entered wearing a Chicago-style look he wore jorts, a Cubs jersey and a Bulls cap while the whole crowd cheered for him.
He said Cena copied his “Pipebomb” and gave his best promo, so now he also copied Cena’s style.
Punk targeted Cena through rap and said he ended more careers than The Undertaker. He also mentioned Cena’s bad relationship with Nikki Bella, while Nikki recently returned to WWE for Evolution.
He called Cena similar to Hulk Hogan, but even more problematic. Then he joked that Cena will retire and wash James Gunn’s underpants, which pointed to Cena’s “Peacemaker” role in DC Universe.
Punk ended his rap with the line “I am Kendrick Lamar and you will be my Drake.” After that he posed like Cena towards the crowd and the show ended with that gesture.
