Chris Jericho was the latest WWE star to be asked about the situation regarding CM Punk and WWE, and he actually made an interesting revelation.
In an interview with the Wrestling Observer recently, Jericho couldn’t say whether or not he thinks Punk will return, however he did note that he’s picked up the phone on a few occasions to try and reach out to his former WrestleMania opponent, but he’s yet to be successful in the mission of getting Punk to answer.
"I don’t know (if he’s coming back), I don’t know really anything about Punk. We used to talk quite often and not really about wrestling stuff. … We always had great chemistry and he’s one of my favorite guys to work with. And then when he left the WWE he never talked to me again. I never heard one peep or squeak or anything from him again. I reached out to him a couple times just about, you know, ‘hey, I’m watching The Clash from ’78’ or whatever and nothing. That’s his decision, and it’s kind of a drag. I understand professionally not wanting to be open but kind of leaving your friends behind?"
Punk is really going out of his way to alienate himself from anything tied to WWE, all except for his wife AJ Lee, of course. Talk about burning bridges. It seems as if Jericho and he were pretty tight, so if this indeed true and Punk just dumped their friendship because he got into a dispute with WWE, that’s pretty unfortunate.
