CM Punk and Cody Rhodes team up at WWE live event
CM Punk and Cody Rhodes, recent rivals, recently teamed up during a WWE live event in Canada. The duo faced Gunther and Ricky Saints in a match where Punk, the current Undisputed WWE Champion, defended his status.
During the event, Punk and Rhodes performed a tribute to the wrestling faction The Shield by executing a move that sent Ricky Saints through a table. This follows Punk’s recent championship successes, including retaining his title against Rhodes at SummerSlam and winning the championship in July after defeating Sami Zayn.
Prior to this pairing, Punk had competed in a triple-threat match on August 22 against Rhodes and Gunther. While Rhodes is currently involved in a separate storyline with Randy Orton, the recent collaboration highlights WWE's tendency to pair rivals together for live event appearances.
