Some of the fans stated:

This is real beef. Don’t think this is acting. These two despise each other.” one fan stated.

Remember Seth said he was a cancer and to stay away from WWE, they got real beef. Whatever triple H is doing, I hope Seth is willing to put aside differences, there’s way too much coming in now with Randy and CM Punk.” another user stated.

I don’t know, this anger seemed so real to me, especially since Seth has already called CM Punk cancer, and the fact that Michael Cole and Corey Graves are holding Seth, makes it more real. But if it’s not real, Seth is a good actor.” a fan shared.

So you telling me I gotta start watching WWE again cause it’s awesome again?” an user claimed.

Whether or not it’s real, Seth Rollins and CM Punk‘s altercation attracted some attention from the public. Further, the animosity between the two appears to be far from resolved. After previously calling Punk “cancer” Rollins now appears to have an explosive encounter with Punk. It’s now a matter of question, whether WWE will capitalize on this.
