WWE star CM Punk went scorched Earth on RAW on Monday night as he took shots at a litany of WWE personalities. One of his biggest targets was radio host and former NFL punter Pat McAfee.
Opening this week’s RAW from the Toyota Center in Houston, CM Punk delivered a blistering “pipebomb” promo, taking shots at Roman Reigns, The Rock, TKO CEO Ari Emanuel, and Pat McAfee.

CM Punk took particular aim at McAfee, who has been in the news since he aligned himself with Randy Orton on SmackDown last Friday in a move that landed poorly with fans and has been compared to the disastrous inclusion of Travis Scott into a John Cena storyline a few years back.
Punk called the popular radio host “Pat MAGAFee” and said he is a “buggy-whipped, arm-no-brain hillbilly.”
“You think you can come here to the business, my business of pro wrestling, and run your mouth? You just wrote a check that your narrow a– can’t cash,” Punk said to the roar of the crowd.
“You want to talk about ticket sales? Do me a favor, call up that aget that was foolish enough to shoehorn you into this business and this show and tell him to lower the ticket prices.”

The agent Punk referenced is Ari Emanuel, the CEO of TKO, WWE’s parent company, who became McAfee’s representative in February 2026 and is also reportedly the person who inserted McAfee into the Cody Rhodes and Randy Orton WWE title storyline to the chagrin of fans.
