CM Punk had a dream weekend, as The Best in the World defeated Jey Uso at Saturday Night’s Main Event in Salt Lake City, Utah, to win the World Heavyweight Championship.
Following his triumph, Punk attended a Utah Mammoth hockey game, where he spoke to Nick Olczyk during intermission. The Second City Saint was asked to comment on his WWE journey since his 2023 return, and the veteran replied that “it’s been like a dream.” Punk also expressed his love for hockey, adding that he loves to draw parallels between his career and the sport.
Olczyk later posted his interaction with the WWE Superstar on his Instagram account.
“Every day’s been like a dream. Honestly, every day is gratitude. Obviously, I love hockey so much, I draw parallels between my wrestling career and hockey. And I’m the old guy in the room now. I’m happy to lace up my skates and have the privilege to walk the locker room and the halls with a lot of talented young stars and seeing [SIC] all the fans [and] all the places I’ve been all around the world. Getting to revisit stuff and see the young and the old, we all love wrestling. It’s great; it’s been a dream,” he said.
When asked about what’s next for him, CM Punk said:
“What’s next? What’s next is the next shift. Second period, I might go check what kind of food you guys have,[and] send some pictures to my wife. If you guys got some crazy nachos or something, she’ll be excited. I’m on my way after the game to Albuquerque for Monday Night RAW, so tune in, Netflix, RAW, and let’s go Mammoth.”
