CM Punk, who has faced significant trolling since his WWE return, is the target of NXT Champion Ethan Page's recent mockery. Page responded to Punk's announcement of serving as special guest referee for his title match against Trick Williams by sharing a photo with NBA star Tyrese Haliburton, joking about obnoxious fans at airports. This comment seems to be a playful jab at Punk's own recent complaints about fans bothering wrestlers in public. The trolling is compounded by Punk's involvement in Page's upcoming title defense on October 1 in Chicago, his hometown. Drew McIntyre also continues to poke fun at Punk, highlighting an ongoing rivalry in the locker room. This ongoing banter reflects the blending of WWE's scripted narratives with real-life interactions among wrestlers.
