CM Punk admits the pipe bomb promo did not break kayfabe
But recently CM Punk made a shocking claim that whatever he said during the famous pipe bomb never broke the kayfabe, and it was all in the script. Recently, he appeared on “Allenownz Wrestling” where he made this shocking admission. Here is what The Best in The World has to say about it;
CM Punk cut the pipe bomb promo back in 2011
“So this is all going to come down to perspective. And I think this is probably going to reveal — and this is going to sound super egotistical, but the genius of what the Pipe Bomb was. I did not expose anything. You juxtapose it with the Curtain Call, which was 100% — I mean, that pissed off Gerry Brisco. You shouldn’t piss off Gerry Brisco. I would be curious to have anybody try to explain to me how those two things are similar, because they’re drastically, drastically different, right?”
John Cena recently recreated the pipe bomb promo during his latest feud with CM Punk
“I took what I knew smart fans to think was taboo, and said things on television that nobody had ever said before in a context within a storyline, right? I did not beat anybody over the head with exposing the business. I wasn’t fraternizing with a good guy when I was a bad guy or vice versa. That, to me, proves how powerful a moment of what I did was, because it’s still almost misunderstood.”
This shocking admission can rewrite the history of professional wrestling as the Pipe bomb has been famous as a non scripted and most importantly, a kayfabe breaking promo. John Cena even recreated the pipe bomb with a person of his own recently during his feud with CM Punk. But it could not be as famous as the original one.
