A fan has demanded a personal apology from CM Punk after a tense confrontation in the MGM Grand Hotel & Casino lobby after WrestleMania 42 night 2 in Las Vegas, after the WWE star slapped his phone from his hand after he tried to film his wife and Bayley hugging. The anonymous fan has been tracked down by TMZ and told them that he has no intention of suing or contacting police, but wants Punk to apologize and shake his hand. Whether Punk would be open to this remains unknown, but he has issued apologies in the past, like to the people of Saudi Arabia, for his infamous blood money tweet.
“I want an apology, shake my hand, I’m not gonna sue him or put him in jail. I just want an apology.” – CM Punk
CM Punk has experienced several notable fan encounters over the years, often triggered by privacy concerns or overly aggressive behavior. In October 2012, on Monday Night Raw in Sacramento, he entered the crowd and struck a fan amid chaotic shoving and grabbing. In July 2012, at a St. Louis airport, he refused a rude autograph request, prompting another fan to yell, and Punk tossed the book in the trash. He has also experienced the bizarre intrusion of a fan forcing melted Easter chocolate through his narrow mail slot, which really annoyed him.
