WWE superstar CM Punk has issued an emotional plea, calling for an end to the ongoing genocide in Gaza. Punk, currently on hiatus from wrestling, shared this powerful message during his guest appearance as a commentator at CFFC 137, a mixed martial arts event.
Seizing the moment, Punk boldly stated, “I’m CM Punk, and I wish we would stop genocide,” addressing the escalating violence in Palestinian territories. Punk has long used his platform to speak out on global issues, particularly in advocating for the Palestinian people. His solidarity with UFC Welterweight Champion Belal Muhammad, who is of Palestinian descent, has been evident throughout his career.
Punk last appeared on WWE RAW on October 7, where he hinted at uncertainty about his return to the ring. However, he continues to remain active, both in his advocacy and upcoming projects. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Punk is set to star in the 2025 indie horror film “Night Patrol,” featuring a star-studded cast.
Punk’s message adds to the growing voices calling for peace in Gaza, as he continues to use his influence to raise awareness on critical global issues.
