CM Punk faced his first singles loss in nearly a decade at WWE SummerSlam against Drew McIntyre, but he took a moment on WWE RAW to congratulate his friend Belal Muhammad, who recently won the UFC Welterweight Championship. Muhammad expressed his admiration for Punk and his desire to team up with him in the future, noting their strong bond and shared training history at Roufusport Milwaukee. He had planned to attend SummerSlam but opted to go to Abu Dhabi for a UFC fight instead, which left him reflecting on missed opportunities during the event. Muhammad described Punk as a genuine friend and brother, highlighting the significance of Punk's shoutout during RAW. Their connection is further emphasized by the fact that both WWE and UFC are now under the same parent company, Endeavor. Muhammad's recent victory at UFC 304 adds to the excitement surrounding their potential collaboration in wrestling.
