On the latest episode of Kliq This, Kevin Nash discussed the performance of CM Punk following a recent appearance on WWE Monday Night Raw and the lack of heat for Gunther. Punk competed on last week’s show in a tag match with Rey Mysterio against Austin Theory & Bronson Reed. Nash said that Punk “looked slow” and critiqued his wearing a shirt during the match.

Nash also noted that Gunther’s heat isn’t “real heat.” You can check out some highlights below:

On Punk’s Status:

“I watched Punk in the main event of that match last Monday. And he — number one, if you’re the heavyweight champion of the WWE and you wrestle in a T-shirt, ouch. Number two, his punches looked really slow, he looked slow. I think it’s time for him. I think he’s done. I think Bron should beat him.”

On Gunther’s Heat:

“He doesn’t have real heat. No, that’s not real heat. He has manufactured heat. It’s the closest thing that there is to heat on that show, but he doesn’t have heat.”

On Why It’s Not Real Heat:

“I’s like — last week when he came out. And so his music plays, and then his graphic plays. Then he goes out and cuts a promo, and then Pearce comes out and tells him to get the f**k out of the building.

“So they played his music, played his entrance, gave him a microphone, he cut a promo. But when he got done, it’s time to get the f**k out of the building. Because you’re a bad guy, and you got heat.”
