Speaking with Daniel Cormier and Chael Sonnen on Good Guy/Bad Guy, Punk mentioned the importance of having the title close the show and why he believes it’s the right move for both him and Gunther.
“I think it’s important. It’s important for the title. I think it’s important for Gunther. I think the title should, more often than not, always be featured in a main event. So, I’m looking forward to not only main eventing SummerSlam but stealing the whole weekend—you know what I mean?”
