Ahead of their clash when WWE's Monday Night RAW moves to Netflix, Seth Rollins made a vicious promise for when he faces CM Punk.

During an interview segment on the December 23, 2024, episode of RAW, Rollins talked about the match. He promised that fans will “see a side of me that no one's ever seen.”

“No pun intended, it's gonna be raw, it's gonna be visceral, it's gonna be violent, I have got to extract this demon from my soul,” Rollins proclaimed. “I've gotta get it out of me.”

Fans only have to wait a few more weeks to see Rollins and Punk clash. Their match has been highly anticipated since Punk returned to WWE in November 2023.

Both Rollins and Punk are five-time world champions in WWE. Rollins has won the WWE Championship and Universal Championship twice. He was also the inaugural World Heavyweight Champion after the championship was reintroduced in 2023.

Punk has won the WWE Championship twice and the World Heavyweight Championship three times. Additionally, he is a one-time ECW Champion as well. He has also won two Money in the Bank ladder matches.

The feud between Rollins and Punk is only beginning. Expect their match during RAW's first episode on Netflix to be the first chapter in a new WWE story.
