CM Punk’s last few nights didn’t turn out the way he might have hoped. On the RAW after SummerSlam 2025, he interfered in the main event, and after the cameras stopped rolling, he got into an altercation with a 42-year-old top babyface.
This week on RAW, the main event saw Adam Pearce put Seth Rollins on instant defense of his World Heavyweight Championship. His opponent was the 42-year-old superstar LA Knight, who was the last man to pin Rollins (at Saturday Night’s Main Event). CM Punk interfered and caused a DQ, leading to a moment of friction as LA Knight was furious.
While Punk and Knight only briefly crossed paths after the main event of RAW, it continued after the cameras stopped rolling. Following RAW going off the air, CM Punk and LA Knight got into an altercation that had to be broken up.

It’ll be interesting to see if this results in a Triple Threat match at Clash in Paris as Seth Rollins defends his title against both men. While Punk cashed in on fair and square, LA Knight’s title defense was unfairly interrupted, and he will likely get another shot at the World Title.
The night ended with both men getting taken out by The Vision, and even Roman Reigns couldn’t help them out.
