Drew McIntyre Snaps Photo With Jack Perry Telling CM Punk to ‘Cry Us A River’

CM Punk’s grand return to WWE at Survivor Series last year stirred up controversy. He was fired from AEW following a backstage altercation with Jack Perry, a fact that Drew McIntyre was well aware of.

Drew McIntyre posted a real photo of himself with Jack Perry, captioned “Cry us a river.” This indicates that McIntyre has taken his trolling of CM Punk to another level. While the timing and location of the photo are unknown, its authenticity adds an interesting twist.

McIntyre is set to face CM Punk at WWE SummerSlam, a match officially announced on WWE RAW this week. Seth Rollins will be the special guest referee. The history between these three is notable, as Rollins was supposed to be Punk’s WrestleMania opponent before the Second City Saint was injured at the Royal Rumble.

The caption McIntyre chose refers to the infamous backstage altercation between Punk and Perry at AEW All In 2023. This occurred after Perry’s match with HOOK, where Perry looked into the camera and said, “Real glass, cry me a river,” leading to a scuffle with Punk backstage. The security footage of that incident has been widely seen.

It remains to be seen what Drew McIntyre will do next to provoke CM Punk. While they cannot physically confront each other until SummerSlam, the Scottish Warrior is likely to continue trolling Punk in the meantime.
