CM Punk could betray major star, according to WWE Hall of Famer (Exclusive)

WWE Hall of Famer Teddy Long shared his thoughts on how CM Punk's future in the company could pan out. Since returning to the company, the star has been a prominent feature of the RAW roster.

CM Punk has recently found a new ally in Sami Zayn. The two have joined forces to combat the threat of Seth Rollins and Bron Breakker. Ever since his win at WrestleMania, Seth has become a dastardly villain, keen on dominating the division.

On a recent episode of The Wrestling Time Machine with host Mac Davis, Long noted that the encounter could have some drama. He predicted that Punk could get frustrated with Zayn's antics and walk out on him.

The Hall of Famer hinted that the Best in the World has been patient with Sami, but the two babyfaces could have a fallout anytime.

"I think the babyfaces will go over. But I don't see so much as a Sami Zayn-CM Punk having a match down the road. Maybe CM Punk is just walking out on him and just leaving him there. If they do it right, then there's a match that they can get out of them. But if you're just gonna have it where Sami is probably just doing something that kinda gets on Punk's nerves or kinda pisses him off, then I'd just simply walk out on him and leave him," Long said.

Punk and Zayn will have to work together at Saturday Night's Main event to stand a chance against Seth Rollins and Bron Breakker. The duo has wreaked havoc on RAW since WrestleMania, and with the genius of Paul Heyman by their side, the two men have become unstoppable.
