It has been a while since CM Punk went off at the media scrum. Several pro-wrestling personalities have shared their opinions on Punk's controversial rant at this point. WWE Hall of Famer Rob Van Dam recently appeared at an "Inside The Ropes" live show in London. The veteran had a lot to say about Punk and revealed that he had an interesting conversation with him back during their days. This happened way back in 2000s when Rob Van Dam and CM Punk were both regular acts on WWE's version of ECW. Punk once approached RVD backstage and informed him that he was about to hold a team meeting backstage. Apparently, someone was stealing stuff from wrestlers' bags in the locker room. Check out his full comments below: "I’ve [been] gone for 30 days, when I came back it was the first show back and CM Punk approaches me at the building and he says, ‘Hey, Rob, I just want to let you know, I’m going to have a team meeting in the dressing room.’" Punk made it clear to RVD that the theft incident had nothing to do with him. RVD was surprised to see that Punk had seemingly declared himself a locker room leader. "He says, ‘Of course, this has nothing to do with you. I just want to tell you so you know, like when everyone’s back there and stuff.’ I’m like, ‘What? You’re locker room leader? Like what happened?’ But some people are comfortable just taking that position of control and moving forward and I don’t know. I kind of think he’s one of them," RVD said. [H/T ]
