CM Punk surprised Paul Heyman and Brock Lesnar
When one agrees to battle with Paul Heyman, of wits or otherwise, one is never walking into a fair fight. Happily, CM Punk knew this to be true the second he agreed to tangle with the mad scientist (he didn’t tweet that photo of Admiral Ackbar for nothing), and he was more than prepared when Heyman summoned Brock Lesnar to the ring before their tilt was set to begin to make the fight 2-on-1.
Daring Punk to play the “stupid hero,” Heyman beckoned the former WWE Champion to the ring, but didn’t count on the fact that – IT’S A TRAP!! – Punk was already there. The Second City Saint proved himself smarter than the average beast when he emerged from beneath the ring to strike Brock with a ring camera and steel chair. Heyman amscrayed immediately, and was only able to escape the furious Punk when Curtis Axel ran interference and ate a Go to Sleep in his boss’ stead. Not bad for the self-proclaimed “Best.” Now all that’s left is to slay the Beast.
Backstage: CM Punk was asked why he choose to make this match so close to Summerslam. Then he told why he is the Best of the Best.
