Back to the topic of discussion, CM Punk unsurprisingly unloaded his verbal machinery on Roman Reigns, taking shots at him by calling him boring and safe. He shockingly referenced Vince McMahon as an “old man” whom Roman Reigns ate dog food for. This, of course, was a reference to the highly controversial storyline from late 2019 where now ex-WWE star Baron Corbin was in a storyline with Roman Reigns, and he had him tied with his hands up against the exterior of the ringpost – dumping dog food all over him.

Naturally, this was the most criticized storyline that year, which is saying something, as 2019 is generally regarded as one of the weakest years that WWE has had creatively.

Even the 2020 pandemic year, which has largely been forgotten, had its moments and didn’t receive nearly as much criticism.
