How CM Punk and Drew McIntyre Created WWE’s Rivalry of the Decade

How CM Punk and Drew McIntyre Created WWE’s Rivalry of the Decade

Imagine praying for someone to get injured and then it happens. Well, that's exactly what Drew McIntyre did, and it was the catalyst for the best feud we've seen in WWE in a long time. After almost a year of trash-talking and ass-kicking, CM Punk vs Drew McIntyre came to a close with an absolute slobberknocker at Bad Blood, and I can't help but feel like this is the turning point WWE has needed.

McIntyre transformed himself into a grade-A prick, which only helped build this feud into an all-timer, and CM Punk showed us exactly why he deserves to be called the Best in the World. Punk left AEW in the worst possible way, with people doubting his ability to contribute to the wrestling business. It's safe to say he's got a lot fewer critics now.

McIntyre, on the other hand, was stuck in a slump with an overexposed babyface gimmick that wasn't working. So he dug deep and channeled his inner asshole to bring us one of the best heels we've seen in years. From preying on someone's downfall, taking the piss on social media, and tearing each other a new one week after week, this rivalry had it all.

The one thing it was missing was a closing chapter, and that's what we saw at Bad Blood. In this video, we're taking a look at the CM Punk vs Drew McIntyre feud. We'll break down all the key moments and matches and explore the real reason why this feud is the turning point WWE has needed for so long.
