Title: “Drew McIntyre Calls Out CM Punk Over His Interaction with Roxanne Perez: A Look Into the Prodigy’s Big Night”
At NXT Battleground 2024, Roxanne Perez successfully defended her NXT Women’s Championship against TNA Knockouts World Champion Jordynne Grace. However, it was her post-match interaction with CM Punk that has become the talk of the town.
Punk, who was Perez’s childhood idol, approached her after the match to offer some advice. He pointed out that the young champion was talented but must focus on elevating the NXT Women’s Title. An uninterested Perez dismissed Punk’s remarks, calling him a hypocrite before leaving.
The exchange did not go unnoticed by Drew McIntyre, who took a jibe at Punk on Twitter, stating, “Even people who grew up idolizing CM Punk are already sick of him.” The Scottish Warrior further added fuel to the fire with a not-so-subtle message directed at the Second City Saint.

As the wrestling community awaits Punk’s response, it’s clear that the interaction between the Straight Edge Superstar and the NXT Women’s Champion has sparked a heated debate, giving wrestling fans much to talk about. With McIntyre entering the fray, it remains to be seen if Punk will clap back at the former world champion.
CM Punk’s advice to Perez centered around staying focused on the title and her in-ring performances. “I need you to focus on this [the title], I need you to be who you are; I need you to be the protege. You don’t need anything else,” Punk explained.
Despite Perez’s rebuttal, it’s clear that Punk’s guidance stemmed from a genuine concern for the NXT Women’s Champion. However, fans cannot overlook the underlying tension between Punk and McIntyre, which seems to be building up after the recent Twitter exchange.
Roxanne Perez’s successful title defense was overshadowed by her post-match interaction with CM Punk. The Second City Saint’s well-intentioned advice was met with skepticism by the NXT Women’s Champion, followed by a harsh retort from Drew McIntyre. As the dust settles, fans eagerly anticipate the upcoming developments between the wrestlers involved, ensuring that the wrestling community is in for a rollercoaster ride.
