During his return to CFFC commentary, CM Punk delivered a nostalgic surprise by referencing the late legend Terry Funk. The WWE star casually remarked, “I don’t travel anymore. My horse is sick,” which was a witty line that showcased Punk’s deep respect for wrestling’s rich history while delivering his trademark sharp humor. Fans quickly took to social media to praise him, once again highlighting how closely connected Punk remains to the sport’s legacy.
“I don’t travel anymore. My horse is sick.” – CM Punk
The phrase “My horse is sick” originates from Terry Funk’s colorful career, when he often used it as an excuse to disregard bookings or leave territories. Most famously, the hardcore icon left Vince McMahon a note declining a major backstage role and bowing out of Survivor Series plans, citing his horse’s illness. From then on, whenever McMahon saw Funk, he would jokingly ask how the horse was doing, a clear nod to the memorable note from years earlier.
