Drew McIntyre Escalates Feud with CM Punk, Destroys Fan-Made Bracelet

One big thing: Drew McIntyre destroys CM Punk’s bracelet on WWE Raw

Drew McIntyre took his feud with CM Punk to a new level on the August 2 episode of WWE Raw by destroying a fan-made bracelet that had become central to their rivalry.

• McIntyre seized the bracelet, tore it apart, and force-fed the beads to a fallen Punk.
• The Scottish Warrior then proceeded to brutalize Punk further.
• This act comes after Punk had regained the bracelet at WWE Bash in Berlin and expressed a desire to put the feud behind him.

Why it matters

This incident represents a significant escalation in the McIntyre-Punk feud, demonstrating McIntyre’s willingness to cross personal boundaries and involve fans in their conflict.

The fan behind the bracelet

The original bracelet was crafted by a long-time WWE fan who had recently met CM Punk at WrestleMania 40.

• The fan tweeted about meeting Punk, expressing emotional gratitude for the experience.
• McIntyre responded to the fan’s tweet, saying, “His blood is on your hands.”
• The fan retorted with “5 minutes 46 seconds,” referencing McIntyre’s brief WWE World Championship reign at WrestleMania 40.

Fan’s reaction

Despite the destruction of the bracelet, the fan expressed gratitude for the experience:

“Welp since the bracelet is broken i would like to thank @WWE and @CMPunk for the craziest 5 months ever. I have been a fan of WWE for over half of my life and i never would have imagined anything like this happening to me i am so grateful <3 (@DMcIntyreWWE watch your back)"
