Paul 'Triple H' Levesque has opened up about some creative disagreements he's had with CM Punk following Punk's WWE return in late 2023.
During an interview with The High Performance Podcast, WWE's Chief Content Officer noted that there had been times when Punk was dissatisfied with the creative presented to him and explained how things were worked out, saying:
"We've had a couple of moments since he returned. There was one moment where they had told him something creatively and they told me, 'He does not like this'. I was like okay, I'll go talk to him. Went to talk to him and I said 'What's going on?' I told him the creative and he was like, 'That's good...whatever'. And I was like, 'I know you don't like it, everybody's told me, so let's be open.' So, then he complained about what it was and I said, 'Okay, let's go sit and talk about it. Come up with something good.'
"And that sort of changed a paradigm shift for us relationship-wise. And now, sitting down and being collaborative with CM Punk is one of my favourite things in TV, because he shares a very similar view at the end of the day of the business that I do."
Punk is set to headline WrestleMania for the first time in his career when he takes on Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns in a triple threat match in the main event of WrestleMania 41 night one. The Straight-Edge Superstar recently commented on the match.
