The rivalry between CM Punk and Drew McIntyre leading into WWE Bad Blood 2024 is an intense, heated feud that has been brewing for over nine months. Their animosity reached its climax in a brutal Hell in a Cell match, that opened the event. This clash stems from several key incidents, starting with McIntyre mocking Punk’s injury at the Royal Rumble, which escalated when Punk interfered in McIntyre’s World Heavyweight Championship pursuits.
One of the pivotal moments came after McIntyre won the title at WrestleMania XL but lost it when Damian Priest cashed in the Money in the Bank contract, due to a distraction caused by Punk. The feud continued with Punk costing McIntyre further title opportunities, leading to multiple attacks, including McIntyre stealing a bracelet, which was a gift to Punk which was adorned with his wife (AJ Lee) and dog’s (Larry) names, symbolizing his love for his family.
Their rivalry reached another level at SummerSlam 2024 when McIntyre won their match after interference from guest referee Seth Rollins. However, despite Punk seemingly gaining some closure in their next encounter at Bash in Berlin, where he reclaimed his stolen bracelet, McIntyre continued the fight. McIntyre’s attack on Punk on Raw in September was the final straw, setting up this dangerous Hell in a Cell match.
