CM Punk recalls the match against The Big Show
The fans had questioned CM Punk about variety of topics during the Q&A session. One of the fans went on to ask him about the match which stands out for him. The former WWE Champion reminisced his battle against The Big Show and went on to share a secret about the bout.
The wrestlers generally call the spots prior to the match and execute them during the actual match. However, it was not the case in the match between Punk and The Big Show.
The Second City Savior recollected that before the match he had spent ten minutes on the phone speaking with Vickie Guerrero as he eventually made his way out to the ring.
Thereby, he and Show did not call a single thing for the match but ended up working well inside the squared circle. Punk meant to say that they gelled well together and shared a mental connection which helped them put on a show without even prior discussion.
Here is what he wrote: “I had a match overseas vs big show where we didn’t call a thing and I pretended to be on the phone with Vickie for nearly ten minutes before I even got in the ring. That’s working, bröther.”
