CM Punk shares picture he took while under the WWE ring moments before screwing over his rival

Wrestling star CM Punk has shared a picture he took under the WWE ring moments before screwing over his rival.

WWE's WrestleMania 40 took place over the weekend at the Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

At the show, the likes of Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson, John Cena and the Undertaker were all present as Cody Rhodes beat Roman Reigns to become the Undisputed Universal Heavyweight World Championship.

During the event, CM Punk, whose real name is Phillip Jack Brooks, attacked Drew McIntyre after he won the World Heavyweight title.

This enabled Damian Priest to cash in his Money in the Bank briefcase to become the new champion.

Reacting on social media, McIntyre wrote: “I will never forgive CM Punk for ruining this moment.”

After causing McIntyre to lose his belt at Wrestlemania, Punk inflicted further damage by ruining his chances of regaining it on Monday Night RAW - interfering to stop him from winning the no.1 contenders match. He waited under the ring and risked ruining the surprise by snapping a picture from under the canvas tagging WWE commentators Pat McAfee and Michael Cole.

Speaking in a recent interview with ESPN, CM Punk spoke about targeting McIntyre.

He said: “I wanted to make Drew interesting. I wanted to show him that what’s important isn’t on the internet. What’s important is inside the building. Those people, after his two matches. Yes, he had two. He won one. He lost the more important one. They were chanting ‘CM Punk.’

“Drew McIntyre prayed for me to be injured. He prayed for it to happen. He asked for help. He looked above and said, ‘God, please, take CM Punk out so I can main event WrestleMania 40.’ I don’t pray for things to happen. I make them happen. I’m going to keep this up until Drew loses his mind. This is my house. I came back here to prove it. Everybody is worried about who I was, who I am now. You should worry about who I’m becoming.”
