CM Punk and Colt Cabana won their lawsuit a few months ago over WWE’s Dr. Chris Amman. It looks like this story doesn’t have a happy ending though as Colt Cabana is now reportedly suing CM Punk.
This story was first broke by the Chicago Sun-Times. Here is an excerpt from their article about why Cabana is suing Punk:
“Cabana’s lawsuit contends Punk promised to help him out with the legal bills they amassed fighting the defamation lawsuit. Cabana claims Punk told him in a text that he would be “100% covered.”
Punk has failed to keep that promise, leaving him with unpaid legal bills totaling $513,736, according to the lawsuit.
Punk asked Cabana to pay half of the legal fees, which comes out to $256,868, saying “You are on your own.”
Cabana is asking for $200,000 in general damages, along with $1 million in punitive and exemplary damages, according to the lawsuit.
The lawsuit claims “Brooks acted with fraud, malice and oppression toward Colton, with the deliberate intention of causing Colton harm.”
We will update you if either Colt or Punk comment on the lawsuit. Certainly a wild turn of events after their lawsuit victory. Let us know your initial thoughts in the comment section.
On a related note, here was Cabana’s answer a few months ago on if he was still friends with Punk.
