SACRAMENTO-
At Monday night’s WWE “Monday Night Raw” taping, punches weren’t just for the fight in the ring;a fan also saw the business side of wrestler CM Punk’s fist.
The problem is CM Punk hit the wrong guy. The man who struck him in the back of the head is not the one he lunged at.
The incident happened during a segment with Vince McMahon that involved C M Punk standing unprotected in the middle of the crowd. C M Punk’s character is a bad guy and you can see fans heckling and poking him before he reacts.
WWE apologizes for not providing their fighter and the fans enough protection.
“Unfortunately, a few fans began shoving him and one struck him in the kidney and on the back. WWE regrets that proper security measures were not in place, and C M Punk apologizes for reacting in the heat of the moment,” WWE said in a statement.
The man hit was not seriously injured, but a report has been filed with the Sacramento Sheriff’s Office, although it will be up to the District Attorney if charges will be filed.

What CM Punk did was right. If people want him arrested then the 6 to 7 fans that were hitting him should also be arrested. People know not to touch performers. Best of all he hit a Laker Fan which makes it that much better.

Aaron, the guy who was hit didn't touch Punk. He was just standing behind him. That's why it wasn't cool at all what Punk did. Watch the video again.

He never used a closed fist. He just pushed the dude in the face and back handed him like a pimp would do to a hooker. Not a big deal IMO…

you're an idiot. not a big deal? pimp hitting a hooker? you mean an arrogant man who considers himself a woman's "masah" hitting someone smaller and unable to defend herself? only an idiot would consider no big deal.
this whole circus is just a bunch of acting – it's not even fighting with real men.

Shouldn’t he be considered to be a lucky fan?

the "wrestler" (sorry, can't call him an athlete by any means) went and stood in a crowd of people who paid money to watch him tumble around a ring with another man. so a guy touches the back of his head and he smacks whomever's behind him? that's not even a sport. it's just a bunch boys doped up on testosterone pills wearing shiny Underoos who really need to get a real job and learn to manage their rage like the adults the chronicological ages indicate.

Listen people wrestling is all a scripted show. Just like your mother and grandmother watching soap opera during the day. Really….. that's why they call it Sport Entertainment.

I think the person that stood behind the man that was hit by the wrestler needs to be found and charged with hitting the wrestler. That was so not cool, he hid like a little girl and got someone else hurt.. Talk about a WEENIE
