Meanwhile, Rollins continued to talk up Punk on chat shows, where he criticised the former World Champion for hiding behind “Fox” label, and then also mentioned Punk’s name on RAW, much to the frustration of WWE Chairman Vince McMahon.

“Look to be honest with you, I am here, he’s (Punk) not here. I am not shocked about that. I think I have exhausted all my energy on the subject. I just don’t think it’s going anywhere,” Rollins said.

“I am not shocked he’s not here. Now, maybe it’s time to move on to something that matters. I wish he was here, I wish we could have a face-to-face. But it’s not on the cards,” he added.
