Former WWE Writer Talks Triple H and HBK Burying CM Punk In Front Of Vince

Even though it's been over a year since CM Punk exited the WWE, and over two months since his infamous podcast with Colt Cabana, he remains a hot topic. After Triple H's appearance on the Stone Cold Podcast on the WWE Network, Punk's name is brought up yet again.

Triple H claimed he didn't know who CM Punk was before he was called up to the WWE. Former WWE writer Court Bauer appeared on Bauer & Pollock and shared a story of Triple H and DX teammate Shawn Michaels burying CM Punk during one of his tryout matches.

"One time, Triple H along with HBK buried CM Punk. I think it was his 2005 tryout," Bauer said. "Maybe he didn't know the name, and wasn't familiar with who it was but they buried him."

Bauer said that he, Vince McMahon, and then head of talent relations John Laurinaitis were all present as it was going on. They, along with Triple H and Shawn Michaels were in the Gorilla position watching Punk's tryout at the Mohegan Sun Arena in Connecticut.

"They annihilated his look and his work and I'm like 'you just sunk the guy in front of the Chairman!'" Bauer compared it to one of DX's goofy skits at the time, with a touch more seriousness involved.

"They were shredding this poor guy," Bauer said.

Bauer also talked about how the next year at Survivor Series 2006, Triple H disingenuously put his arm around Punk.
