October 6, 2015

As noted, CM Punk took to Twitter last night and made the following remark about Susan G. Komen:

If you’re going to give money to a company that claims to raise money for finding a cure for cancer, please do some research.Komen is a scam

Punk’s comment drew some criticism from WWE fans who felt Punk was taking a shot at WWE/wrestling, but Punk posted the following Tweets clarifying his initial comment:

@MrCreepyBoss I’m talking about people collecting money for themselves in the name of breast cancer and you’re talking about fake wrestling.
