Que ce soit en personnage ou en mode réel, CM Punk a été plutôt dur dans ses propos sur Chris Jericho, lors d'une récente entrevue pour ESPN.
Punk affirme que Jericho n'a jamais été, selon lui, "l'homme" de la WWE et qu'il a toujours joué le second violon.
Il mentionne comme exemple John Cena, qui fait vendre beaucoup d'articles promotionnels et qui contribue aux cotes d'écoute. Jericho, au contraire, ne représente pas l'ambassadeur de la compagnie.

"There's always, I think, somebody that has overshadowed him. I guess an argument can be made that John Cena is still 'The Man.' But the numbers don't lie with merchandising, ratings and everything else. We're not trying to hotshot the title around or play hot potato with it. We're giving people a champion they can believe in. And Jericho was never really that guy. He was never really, I guess, the ambassador John Cena has been and that I've been lately. That's what I meant by that."
Punk a par ailleurs parlé de son match contre Randy la pouffiasse l'an dernier, à "Wrestlemania 27". Il soutient que son rôle était de voler le spectacle et de prouver qu'il était extraordinaire, étant donné les probabilités qu'il quitte par la suite la compagnie.

"At Wrestlemania last year -- and I always say I thrive in high-pressure situations -- my job was to steal the show and prove to everybody how awesome I was and what an amazing talent they were losing. I went out there with Randy [la pouffiasse] and we put on, in my opinion, the best match on the show of pure wrestling. I wasn't concerned about what I was doing next year. I was leaving in my mind. I didn't think I would still be here or holding the title."
