Punk successfully defended the Undisputed WWE Championship against Kevin Owens this past Friday night on SmackDown. Owens returned at SummerSlam 2026 to win a Fatal 4-Way match to become the number one contender for the title.

Sami Zayn interfered in the match and tried to convince Owens to use the title as a weapon. However, The Prizefighter refused, and Zayn wound up bashing him over the head with the title. CM Punk capitalized with the GTS for the pinfall victory to remain the champion. After the match, Zayn attacked both Owens and Punk in the ring before posing with the title as the crowd in Toronto booed.

Major WWE star shares his true feelings about CM Punk

SmackDown star Kevin Owens shared his honest feelings about CM Punk as a person.

In an interview with Faces Magazine ahead of their title match, Owens shared that he and Punk did not get along behind the scenes. The former champion noted that there were some people that he was not compatible with, and the 47-year-old was one of them. He also suggested that Punk would say the same about him.

“No. You know, some people, you’re just not compatible with, and he’s one of them. I’m sure he’d happily say the same, like, we don’t gel,” said Owens. (H/T: Faces Magazine)
