CM Punk Takes Nasty Shot At The Miz, WWE Signs Top Indy Star

CM Punk Takes Nasty Shot At The Miz

CM Punk took a shot at The Miz on social media and it was a doozy. Apparently, it all stems from last night’s episode of WWE Backstage, which saw The Miz appear as a special guest.

As the show was wrapping up,  the WWE On FOX Twitter account tweeted a clip where The Miz went back and forth with Renee Young and Paige. The Miz called it the best episode of WWE Backstage and then he pressed was why. 

“Oh, sorry. I didn’t ‘change the culture,’ My bad. My bad,” said The Miz.

Here’s what the Miz said after #WWEBackstage which led to CM Punk tweeting the following to Miz:

“Go suck a blood money covered dick in Saudi Arabia you f***ing dork.” #WWE pic.twitter.com/TTy8xLU4za

That comment was reference to Punk’s surprise debut at the end of the November 12 episode of WWE Backstage. After debuting, Punk looked into the camera and said “It’s as simple as this: just when they think they’ve got the answers, I change the culture.”

Punk was either watching or quickly learned of what The Miz said. Punk tweeted, “Go suck a blood money covered dick in Saudi Arabia you f–king dork.” The tweet was later deleted around 2AM EST or 2 PM EST, but below is screenshot. No word if Punk opted to delete the tweet on his own or if there was pressure from FOX; who are the people that hired Punk and not WWE.

Reason For The CM Punk’s Tweet And Fans Reaction

The tweet was clearly a reference to The Miz and many WWE superstars working in Saudi Arabia, which has been heavily criticized. Clearly, Punk can be added to that list of disgruntled people about WWE’s controversial 10 year deal with Saudi Arabia. 

We have not seen Punk on WWE Backstage since December, but he will return on January 21. Punk is never afraid to speak what is on his mind, so he could further elaborate on his now deleted tweet.

CM Punk trained with the best of the best. He sparred, he worked on his ground game, he got in the best shape of his life!!!

He was terrible. He’d probably still lose in a fist fight with the Miz.

CM Punk is pissed because he considers The Miz beneath him but Miz has more genuine passion for wrestling than Punk has had in over a decade, and the fans are catching on to that. pic.twitter.com/YKwEVb0ny0
