In a recent episode of the No Contest Wrestling podcast, wrestling icon CM Punk revealed his top picks for backup in a hypothetical bar fight, featuring stars from both WWE and AEW. Punk’s choices highlight his connections and respect for his fellow wrestlers, emphasizing their toughness and camaraderie.
When asked who he would want by his side in a scuffle, CM Punk confidently stated:
“I’m taking Bron Breakker. I am taking Shayna Baszler. She’s with me, she’s my homie. I feel like Braun Strowman is a good pick for this type of a situation. Nicest guy in the world too, but I think if, ‘Hey, we gotta get out of here, make a hole’, he’s making a hole.
“One more – does it have to be somebody in WWE? (No.) Samoa Joe. There has been – I don’t know about statute of limitations again – but there has been some situations in the early 2000s where maybe somebody who looked a lot like me and somebody who looked a lot like Samoa Joe were in similar situations that you described.”
CM Punk’s selections reflect not only their physical prowess but also their loyalty and experience. Bron Breakker, known for his impressive strength and agility, would be a formidable ally. Shayna Baszler, with her combat sports background, brings a fierce attitude and skill set to the table. Braun Strowman, despite his gentle nature outside the ring, is renowned for his power and ability to clear a path in challenging situations. Finally, Samoa Joe’s rich history in wrestling and past experiences make him a reliable choice for any tough encounter.
CM Punk’s choices for a bar fight backup highlight the close-knit relationships among wrestlers, whether from WWE or AEW. With stars like Bron Breakker, Shayna Baszler, Braun Strowman, and Samoa Joe on your side, you can be assured of a wild night turned adventure.
