Dominik Mysterio Continues To Bury CM Punk In Hilarious Fashion
Dominik Mysterio really doesn't like CM Punk and isn't afraid to let the world know why he feels that way. WWE Intercontinental Champion Dominik Mysterio was a recent guest on Casual Conversations with The Classic. When asked about how he feels about CM Punk nowadays, Mysterio didn't hold back on burying Punk in hilarious fashion. Advertisement 'I think we just both mutually hate each other equally,' Dominik Mysterio began. 'I f*cking hate CM Punk, I don't know what it is about that guy, I don't know if it's because he looks like Eddie Munster and I want to kick him in the f*cking face. Or the fact that everyone is like, 'He finally did it, he finally got his WrestleMania main event.' Good for you, old man. 60 years old, it took you what, 45 years to accomplish your one goal? It's about time. 'It's what they say about babies. When they have tantrums, you give them what they want so they shut the f*ck up. I'm pretty sure that's what happened. That's why he needed a favor from Paul Heyman. There is a reason he was never in the main event. You call yourself the Best in the World. I don't need to go around calling myself the Best in the World. People know I'm better than the best. 'I don't need to call myself Best in the World at 70 years old. People do it for me. You have [John] Cena talking about me, JBL, AJ Styles, legends talking about me. I don't need to do it for myself or say these things about me because people say it for me. My work speaks for itself. Here you go with CM Punk. I could go on this rant forever, but I need to stop myself.'

Wrestling Legend Mick Foley Shuts Down Outrageous WWE Rumor
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. WWE Hall of Famer Mick Foley is emphatically setting the record straight regarding a persistent online rumor claiming he earns $2.88 million annually under a WWE ambassador contract. During a recent appearance on Casual Conversations with The Classic, Foley directly addressed and refuted these claims, clarifying his current relationship with WWE and his actual compensation. More news: WWE News: Steve Austin Reveals Real-Life Vince McMahon Confrontation Foley made it clear that such a lucrative ambassador role does not exist for him. "I don't have an ambassador job that pays me $2.88 million as has been reported," he stated. He further commented that when he previously held a formal ambassador position with the company, the financial terms were vastly different. "I had an ambassador job for two years that paid me literally 1/14th of that." The "Hardcore Legend" also pointed to his rigorous touring schedule as evidence against the rumored high-paying, less demanding role. "It's been rumored that I have this luxurious job. And I'm like, I don't think I'd be out on the road 200 days a year if I was making $2.88 million a year to be an ambassador," Foley reasoned. He expressed no ill will towards anyone who might have such a deal but wanted to clarify his own situation, saying, "If somebody else has that type of job, good on them." Foley affirmed his positive ongoing relationship with WWE, citing recent appearances like a signing at the Royal Rumble and an upcoming engagement at the new version of WWE Axxess. He explained that he is currently under a Legends deal, which he deeply appreciates.

Better than it was 10 years ago. So I'm really grateful for that relationship." However, he reiterated the core point about the ambassador rumor: "But I don't receive $2.88 million. I receive zero dollars, because I'm not an ambassador." Foley concluded by acknowledging his inherent connection to the company, regardless of official titles or contracts, stating, "Anywhere I walk, I'm kind of a walking billboard for WWE."
