Shaggy 2 Dope and Violent J make up the Insane Clown Posse. They have been a part of professional wrestling for decades, especially in the 1990s, when they made their mark. Violent J recently went on a very angry rant against CM Punk, which caused a lot of trouble in the wrestling world. The rapper Violent J has now talked about why he says such harsh things.
A History of Trouble
Violent J’s rage wasn’t caused by a single event but by a buildup of long-standing grudges. Violent J talked about his feelings about CM Punk on an episode of AdFreeShows with Conrad Thompson. He revealed his long-standing problems with the wrestling star. Colt Cabana, who works with Violent J and is also his close friend, is the main thing that makes him angry. He talked about how old video of Punk making fun of Cabana for having a bank account with his mother set off his Instagram rant.
I don’t work with Colt Cabana; he’s a friend. Real friends are people you talk to almost every day. I don’t have many of those people. “That’s just how cool Colt and I are,” Violent J said, highlighting how close they are as friends.
The First Meeting: Violent J talked about their first meeting with CM Punk in the wrestling business, which was a bad experience that stuck with them. They didn’t know that shaking hands with everyone in the changing room was a sign of respect while they were in Ian Rotten’s IWA. Punk seems to have been angry at them because of this mistake.
And when we got to TNA, we tried to shake his hand, but he wouldn’t. Violent J remembered, “That was the first time someone refused to shake our hand in wrestling over something like that.” Because they refused, it set the stage for the anger that would grow between them later on.
Standing up for a Friend
Violent J is very angry because Punk accused Colt Cabana of being a bad person. Punk’s criticism of Cabana for having a joint bank account with his mother hit home for Violent J, who also had a joint account with his late mother.
“Before she died, my mum and I shared a bank account.” I don’t get him. He acts so angry and sour, and I don’t understand why he attacks Colt and doesn’t care about us at all. **** him. “F*** this dude,” Violent J yelled, showing both his own and other people’s anger.
Outburst in public
Violent J talked about why he took to the public to lash out: he felt forced to respond to what he saw as an unfair and cruel attack. He made it clear that his angry response wasn’t based on a long-held grudge but on seeing old video of Punk beating Cabana.
“I unloaded because I needed to or because I had something on my mind to unload.” It’s funny, but he doesn’t live in my mind that way. I’m not after him because I have a grudge. I saw it and thought, “F*** this guy.” That’s it. It’s not angry. I don’t like him. “I think he’s suffering inside,” he said, giving an idea of how he was thinking.
When There Is Disrespect
Even though he used strong words, Violent J made it clear that he doesn’t think Punk is good at wrestling. He admires what Punk has done for the sport, but he finds it hard to connect with him personally.
“I admire his wrestling, everything he’s done, and his skill.” I like CM Punk’s music, but I have a hard time understanding him as a person. Violent J said, “When you disrespect a personal friend on top of disrespecting me and Shaggy, I say f*** him,” which showed how complicated his feelings were.
Being Bold for Your Beliefs
Violent J’s honest words show how much he cares about standing up for his friends and his beliefs. His public reaction wasn’t just a personal grudge; it was also a protest against what he sees as unfair and hurtful judgement.
I don’t like it when he talks badly about Colt for that reason. That’s not cool. The same thing happens to me. “What’s wrong with that?” He said this to make his point clear again.
What the wrestling community says
As the wrestling community thinks about what Violent J said, different groups have different ideas. Some of his fans agree with his defence of Colt Cabana, while others still support CM Punk. Now the question is whether Punk will answer Violent J’s honest comments.
No matter what happens, Violent J’s strong support for his friend and his readiness to speak out against what he sees as wrong show how emotionally and personally involved professional wrestling is.
