Wrestler and former UFC fighter CM Punk made headlines in Glasgow on Monday night—not just for his appearance at WWE Raw, but for once again showing his affinity for Celtic.
The wrestling icon, who previously turned heads by stepping out in a Celtic training top during a past visit to the city, took it a step further this time. Decked out in the famous Celtic home shirt, Punk was inside the Hydro proudly sporting the Hoops along with a custom WWE championship belt bearing Celtic-inspired detail.
The American seems to have picked his side in Glasgow. While the spectacle of a wrestling star in Celtic colours already had fans buzzing, Punk raised the roof when he made his allegiance crystal clear.
In a moment that delighted fans of both wrestling and Celtic, he declared: while he knew there were two teams in Glasgow, Celtic were the superior team. Celtic reposted the video on their socials.
This isn’t the first time Punk has embraced local culture while on tour, but his clear affection for Celtic continues to stand out. With WWE’s popularity growing in the UK, having one of its top names championing the club is a unique crossover moment.
Now let’s get him to Celtic Park for a game!
