Former WWE Superstar Rey Mysterio recently took some time to talk about CM Punk’s decision to leave WWE to sign with the UFC, and how he plans to fully support “The Best in the World” when he makes his first walk to the Octagon.
Regarding Punk leaving WWE for UFC, Mysterio told WrestleTalk TV the following.
“From what happened with his deal, I overheard it. I respect his opinion and what he wanted to do and why he wanted to do it. If it’s because he was disrespected and wasn’t given an answer… and he left because of that, as a man, you have to respect that. You can’t be lied to or try to protect certain ideas or projects against you. You deserve to know the truth.”
Mysterio also revealed that he plans to be there when Punk has his first fight in the UFC.
“I can’t wait to see him out there. I’m waiting to see when he performs, because I want to be there. I don’t want to just support from the house, I want to be there and show support and see him kick ass in the Octagon.”
