CM Punk escaped with his World Heavyweight Championship intact on Monday Night Raw, surviving a wild and unpredictable main event against Bron Breakker that spiralled into chaos.
The bout completely broke down when Paul Heyman
With the chaos temporarily behind them, the match returned to a brutal one on one fight. Breakker crashed shoulder first into the ring post after missing a spear, allowing Punk to connect with Go To Sleep and a piledriver, yet Breakker still powered out. The closing stretch became a battle of wills, shifting through multiple submissions before Heyman again forced a break.

The fight moved to the floor where Breakker caught Punk mid air and sent him crashing through the announce table with a devastating elbow drop. Confident it was over, Breakker pulled Punk back into the ring and lowered his straps for the spear. As he charged, Punk countered with a knee strike and immediately hoisted Breakker up for a second Go To Sleep, finally securing the pinfall and retaining the championship.
