More Heat Between Punk/Pope

[Rated R Superstar]

As you certainly have heard by now, WWE Champion CM Punk took to his Twitter to speak out against Amendment 1 in North Carolina, which defined marriage in the state constitution as between one man and one woman. The measure would ban any other type of “domestic legal union,†including civil unions and domestic partnerships.

“Amendment 1 is ridiculous,†Punk wrote. “It’s an invasion of people’s rights. North Carolina, why do you care if somebody wants to marry who they love? Same sex marriage should be legal. The fact that it’s illegal is embarrassing.

“Divorce rate is at least 50% between men and women, so don’t give me the values angle. Making same sex marriage illegal is the same as having segregated drinking fountains. Embarrassing. The human race is embarrassing. #evolveâ€

TNA wrestler “The Pope†D’Angelo Dinero criticized Punk’s comments and accused him of wanting to play God.

“So humored by the hypocrisy of those who wanna play GOD, or change what GOD intended,†wrote Dinero. “You wanna evolve? Seek GOD! Hows that for change?~PHSâ€

Punk and Dinero have history, as the Straight-Edge superstar has often referred to Dinero as the worst wrestler he’s faced, including during a radio appearance in February.

“My least favorite opponent; does anyone even remember Elijah Burke?†Punk told WISX FM in Philadelphia. “Oh, he was terrible. He is absolutely the worst. Absolutely the worst. Talk about a diva. Man oh man, sorry if you liked him.â€

I kind of find this funny, I think Dinero is still pissy about Punk's comments. (I really feel as though this could be old news, but haven't read anything about it yet. So I dunno.)

This isn't old. I saw Pope tweet that yesterday, but didn't know who he was referring to.

 

[Rated R Superstar]

I don't use Twitter, so I wouldn't know.

 

[Chris]

I don't know when Punk said what he did, but I'm not entirely convinced Pope was referring to Punk at all. Seems like a wrestling news site may have just pieced these together because they could possibly go together. Pope never mentioned anything at all about Punk in his tweet.

 

[The Cork]

Pretty much same as above, too vague to tag them together.

Although Burke is a crybaby bitch, so yeah.

 

[PHX]

It could even be siding with Punk's comments since it was others who kept bringing up god in regards to that topic so this is just them trying to make this some kind of story or something when it really isn't.

 

[Dale]

Who gives a fuck about The Pope, he's irrelevant in TNA of all places that's how fucking terrible he is.

 

[Defiant]

If the report is legit, I hope Punk responds.

 

[Andrew]

I hope Punk responds too. Dinero killed Dinero.

lolpope

What a fucking dork.

 

[Crippler]

Pope doing anything to get noticed in TNA. POOR GUY!

 

[Rated R Superstar]

I always enjoy the back and forth tweets I read about, between 2 wrestlers. Always entertaining.

 

[Troy]

Yeah I don't think this is linked either, doesn't really seem like Pope's comments would work with what Punk wrote. Shame that this is the only way we hear about Pope, he used to be good as the leader of the New Breed.

 

[Deezy]

Pope through out an opinion that had nothing to do with pro-wrestling, but everyone is attacking him for his wrestling skills?

This is a wrestling forum DAMMIT! Everything is wrestling.
