Two-time WWE Hall of Famer Booker T recently took to an episode of his “Hall Of Fame” podcast, where he talked about a number of topics including how he told the fans chanting for CM Punk at Survivor Series to quiet down because he didn’t know Punk was going to show up.

Booker T said, “Of course, people were talking about, ‘do we think it’s going to happen? Is he here?’ For me, I didn’t put a whole lot of thought into it. If he showed up, he showed up. If he didn’t, he didn’t. The contingency outside the Allstate Arena, it was ‘CM Punk, CM Punk,’ they were all about it. At one point, off the air, the fans were chanting ‘CM Punk,’ so loud, I turned around and said, ‘Guys, quiet down. Quiet down.’ Everyone got silent. I told them, ‘CM Punk is not here tonight.’ [laughs]. I started laughing like crazy. I didn’t know he was going to show up.”
