CM Punk Powerbombs Roman Reigns Through Announce Table at MSG

Reigns vowed on X to end the "embarrassment" at WrestleMania 42.

Overview

  • At Madison Square Garden, a closing Raw brawl ended with CM Punk lifting Roman Reigns and powerbombing him through the announce table after hitting his Go To Sleep finisher.
  • The melee began when Reigns called out the champion and accidentally speared producer Petey Williams, giving Punk an opening to land the GTS, a knee-to-face finishing move.
  • After the show went off the air, Punk stood on the guardrail and cursed out a heckling ringside fan, mocked Reigns’ Superman Punch, and made a lewd gesture in fan-shot video.
  • Reigns answered on social media, posting that "Your Tribal Chief will end this embarrassment at WrestleMania," as WWE promotes their World Heavyweight Title match in Las Vegas on April 18–19.
  • The episode leaned on angles over in-ring time, with only four short matches reported, as WWE uses promos, brawls, and pull-aparts to intensify the Punk–Reigns feud heading into WrestleMania 42.
