The March 23 episode of WWE RAW closed with a heated and physical confrontation between CM Punk and Roman Reigns, just weeks before their clash at WrestleMania 42.

Punk opened the segment with a promo aimed directly at Reigns and his family, dismissing them and claiming they could not succeed on their own. He also addressed previous comments about his age, embracing it while mocking Reigns for trying to hide his grey hair. Punk continued to build momentum on the microphone before being interrupted by Jey Uso.

Jey took exception to Punk’s comments and confronted him in the ring. Moments later, Jimmy Uso joined the segment, leading to tension between the brothers as they exchanged words over Punk’s remarks and their family loyalty.

Reigns then made his entrance and immediately took control of the situation, ordering both Usos to leave the ring. Punk used the moment to take another shot, suggesting Reigns would need their help, which only escalated tensions further.

The situation quickly spiraled when Jey charged at Punk, creating an opening for Reigns. Capitalizing on the chaos, Reigns struck Punk with a Superman Punch to the back of the head, dropping him instantly.

Although Reigns initially looked ready to leave, he stopped after encouragement from Jey Uso. That hesitation led to a brutal follow-up, as Reigns returned to the ring and unleashed a spear on Punk before driving him through the announce table with a powerbomb.

The segment ended with Reigns standing tall, sending a clear message ahead of WrestleMania 42. With less than a month to go, the rivalry between Roman Reigns and CM Punk continues to intensify, with both men escalating the physicality and personal stakes each week.
