The Miz Reveals How He and CM Punk Buried The Hatchet

CM Punk is one of the most controversial names in pro wrestling and he always ruffled feathers wherever he went. There was a time he had beef with The Miz, but that is no longer the case and now The Miz has revealed how he and Punk buried the hatchet.

The Miz appeared on WWE Backstage back in early 2020, where he had a few choice words for CM Punk. This led to response from the Second City Savior where he said: “Go suck a blood money covered d*** in Saudi Arabia you f******* dork.” 

It was clear the two had been on bad terms for a long time. However, during CM Punk’s surprise visit to RAW back in April 2023 while he was still with AEW, the Second City Saint and The A-Lister finally buried the hatchet.

While speaking on Unlikely with Adrian Hernandez, The Miz addressed the rumor that CM Punk apologized to him backstage before Punk’s return to WWE. The Miz recounted the encounter, explaining that it took place in Chicago.

The A-Lister was walking down the stairs when he saw Punk standing there. Given that Punk had left WWE a long time ago and had never returned until then, The Miz was genuinely surprised to see him backstage and described the moment as surreal.

“Yeah, it was in Chicago, and I was just walking down the stairs, and he was standing there. We just locked eyes. Remember, he left a long time ago and has never been back, right, and it always felt like it was a ‘never going to happen’ type of thing. To see him backstage, I was like, ‘What?’ So we ended up having a really good conversation, and it was one of those moments where [it was] guys talking, and we kind of just buried the hatchet, I guess you could say.”

It is certainly good to see CM Punk and The Miz being on good terms now, as their beef is over for good. Regardless, we’ll have to wait and see whether The Miz and CM Punk will be involved in a program somewhere line the line.
