CM Punk Criticizes Seth Rollins’ ‘Big Red Boots’ as ‘Ignorant and Stupid’
LOS ANGELES, Calif. — WWE superstar CM Punk has sparked controversy with his blunt critique of fellow wrestler Seth Rollins‘ signature “big red boots,” calling them “completely ignorant and stupid.” The comments, made during a recent interview, have ignited a debate among wrestling fans and fashion enthusiasts alike.
Punk, known for his outspoken nature, did not hold back when discussing Rollins’ footwear. “I don’t know why anyone, outside of being in a movie or a television show, would wear those in real life,” he said. “I’m not trying to gatekeep shoes or anything like that. It seems a little too ‘notice me’ for me.”
The boots, which Rollins has worn prominently during WWE events, have become a defining part of his in-ring persona. Fans have been divided over the bold fashion statement, with some praising their uniqueness and others echoing Punk’s sentiments.
Rollins, who has yet to respond publicly to Punk’s comments, has often described his style as a blend of flamboyance and confidence. The boots, along with his colorful attire, are part of his larger-than-life character, which has made him one of WWE’s most recognizable stars.
This isn’t the first time Punk has weighed in on wrestling fashion. Known for his no-nonsense approach, he has previously criticized what he sees as excessive showmanship in the industry. His latest remarks have reignited discussions about the role of fashion in professional wrestling and whether it enhances or detracts from the sport’s authenticity.
As the debate continues, fans are eagerly awaiting Rollins’ response, if any, to Punk’s critique. Meanwhile, the “big red boots” remain a hot topic on social media, with hashtags like #RedBootsGate trending across platforms.
