Fans want more intergender matches in WWE after Roxanne Perez attacks CM Punk

Punk collided with the Judgment Day at WWE’s house show in Manchester, which featured the Best in the World taking a Pop Rox from Roxanne Perez.

Fans loved the spot and called for more competitive matches between men and women on their television shows.

“Why not do this as a story TV angle?” asked one fan on X. Another said: “We need to talk about live shows because they’re better than what’s televised!”

“I wish we would get more intergender matches in WWE,” said another after seeing Punk take the bump from The Prodigy.

Punk, Penta, and Sami Zayn won the match against Dominik Mysterio, JD McDonagh, and Finn Balor despite the interference from Perez.

Perez rubbed salt into the wounds for the Best in the World after hitting him with her finisher in Manchester.

The Prodigy took to social media to call out Punk’s wife, legendary WWE star AJ Lee, following the viral spot.

“Hi mom,” the rising WWE star wrote, playing off the fact that she’s often called the adopted child of Punk and Lee.

Lee has not been seen in WWE for over a decade, but there’s been speculation she may return after Punk’s return to the company.
