WWE Rumors: Did WWE Purposely Create A Rift Between Colt Cabana & CM Punk?

Published

on

As has been noted this week, the saga between WWE Doctor Chris Amann, Colt Cabana and CM Punk isn’t quite over for all parties as Cabana has now filed a lawsuit against Punk, alleging that he backed off on his word to cover Colt’s legal fees stemming from the Amann lawsuit (read about that here).

More details regarding the spat between the now-former friends also emerged, as Cabana alleges he also received an email from Punk that looks to be quite damning for the former WWE Champion (check that out here). However, some are speculating that perhaps this is all WWE’s doing and may very well have been one of their goals from the outset.

On the recent edition of Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer has speculated that WWE may have planned the rift, hoping that Punk would turn on Cabana at some point in the legal process. While it clearly did not have any bearing on the verdict of the Amann lawsuit, if this is the case then WWE has certainly succeeded.

EA’s Take: What the…what? Conspiracy theories much? To be perfectly honest, I wasn’t sure if I even wanted to cover this and give Meltzer any more free pub than he already gets. However, I felt that I needed to take this opportunity to offer my opinion, which is this…ARE YOU F******* KIDDING ME? To me this screams, “Let’s throw some s*** at the wall and see if it sticks”. It’s no secret that CM Punk is a dick, no two-ways about it. He’s turned on other friends for a lot less, just ask Hornswoggle. I mean, I GUESS I can see why Meltzer would say this if you want to play devil’s advocate, but man, it’s a REALLY hard sell for me and I just don’t buy it. How could WWE know for a fact that something like this would happen? They wouldn’t. It’s just complete and utter stupidity to me that Meltzer would throw this out there. What exactly is HIS goal by saying it? I honestly don’t have any idea, it makes no sense and I don’t know what the reasoning would be. Probably because there’s little-to-NO reasoning to it at all. I think your phone’s ringing Dave, Alex Jones wants to speak with you and be friends.
