Over the past year or so, there have been some rumors that Colt Cabana and CM Punk were no longer friends. Cabana appeared as a guest on Busted Open Radio where he was asked about his current relationship with Punk.
Bubba Ray Dudley asked him directly what is going on between the two. Below are some quotes (h/t to Wrestling INC):
Colt responded by saying “we’re… we’re what we are, you know?”. Bubba pushed a little harder after an awkward pause and asked if they are cordial with one another. Cabana responded by saying “Yes. Of course, we are.”
Bubba suggested that sometimes life situations [like their recent court case] can bring people back together. Cabana replied by saying “Me and Punk [are] like you and Taz,”. Bubba replied jokingly by saying “Ah, so it’s really bad, huh?”. Colt ended up hesitantly saying: “we’re friends”.
Cabana also had this to say about if Punk will ever return to wrestling
“I think he has no desire to ever go to WWE, but, you never know. In 10 years, something can be different. His mindset could be different, his pocketbook could be different, these are factors that I don’t know. Like, right now, I think he hates wrestling, and everything is kind of… it’s weird, because it’s done everything for him, and it’s also done everything against him. So, I think he has a bad taste for wrestling in his mouth but, you know, in four, five, 10 years, who knows?”
Speaking of Punk, he recently shared the advice that he gave to Ronda Rousey about WWE.
