Recently on Conversation With The Big Guy, former WWE Superstar Ryback opened up with respect, why CM Punk started to hate him.
“I got the one CM Punk fan guy and I knew it was him and his wife walking by on Sunday and they were a heavyset couple, which is irrelevant, but not because they’re f–king marks. And the guy kept looking over at my table and I’m not advertised, nobody knows I’m there, and traffic, three or four people come over, two people, six, seven people come over, and then, you’re waiting five, 10, 15 minutes and it’s all dependent on when people see you, but it’s a constant flow of people in the two or three hours that you’re there. This guy happens to walk by when I had nobody there at the table and it happened… Tommy Dreamer is over there, Bubba Ray is over there. We all go through periods of when people are at your table or aren’t at your table. That’s what these things are, but this one guy is walking by and he’s looking over, belly laughing, just hunched over, laughing hysterically. And I’m just thinking, ‘I’d like nothing more than to get up right there and snap this motherf–ker’s neck.'”
Ryback stated that he thinks CM Punk started to dislike him after he asked Punk to stop doing a gesture similar to the ‘feed me more’ taunt.
Ryback continued, “it was taken away from me and everybody in the company knew it was taken away from me, told [to] me not to do it anymore for whatever that whole f–king period was. And he started doing this, ‘CM Punk! CM Punk!’ trying to do the arm taunt with it, and it was both ‘CM Punk’ [chant] and ‘GTS’ [chant], it was both, I believe, but people would do, ‘feed me more’ when he did it and they would try to and it never caught back on again, but I remember it was just so petty, I thought at that time, and it’s not whatever, but it’s something that eventually after him doing it again, I was in the locker room. I saw it on the monitor. I had my boots off. I was getting changed and I said, ‘f–k this’ and went into ‘Gorilla’ [position] and when he came back there just said, ‘I don’t appreciate you doing this. That was taken away from me. That was my thing. I got it over’ and he was caught off guard with the whole thing, like, ‘I was f–king doing that before!’ And I go, ‘you didn’t get it over. I did.’ And he wasn’t happy. That’s when he really started to hate me.”
