Paul Levesque joined the WWE Night of Champions post show panel.
Sitting down with Jackie Redmond and Byron Saxton, he thanked Turki Al-Sheikh, Chair of the regime’s General Entertainment Authority.
He then turned to the match between CM Punk and John Cena.
Levesque said:
If you’d have told me 10 years ago that CM Punk would be here in Saudi for the WWE, I would have thought you’re out of your mind.
But people grow, people change, people evolve, and they learn, and they learn a lot in life.
And I think not only was I privileged to watch them this week as they prepared for this fight, I was privileged to watch two men grow as people, especially CM Punk.
He added:
I was privileged to watch him grow as a human being, to step out here and apologize to the people of Saudi, to just cherish where he is at in life and his career and the things he gets to do and the opportunities that he has. And I was incredibly proud of him.
