Corey Graves took to Twitter late Saturday night, ripping former WWE Superstar and former friend CM Punk following his loss to Mike Jackson at UFC 225.
The WWE color commentator ripped Punk for abandoning people that stood by his side and turning his back on them.
Maybe abandoning everybody who stood by your side, even when we weren’t supposed to, only to have you turn your back on us wasn’t the right move after all? No anger. Only sadness.

Graves discussed his past friendship with Punk, noting that Punk held Graves’ first son before he had a chance to and that they had dinner the week after he quit WWE in early 2014.
Awww. Seems the “fans” are disappointed. Maybe you guys should know that “That Dude” held my first son before I did because I was on tour and I trusted him.
I had dinner with him the week after he quit.

The first rule of “punk rock” is loyalty, and this guy betrayed it all.
I still love you, “friend” and I’m sorry you got lost.

Don’t worry, hey @VinceMcMahon this has nothing to do with you.
You either @TripleH
This isn’t corporate. This is real life.
Calm down internerds.

Graves then suggested that Punk turned his back on him simply because he worked for WWE.
My loyalty? Oh, would you like the BEFORE? Or AFTER? I’ve got both.
I mean, one can only be shit on by their “best friend” for so long before they smarten up, no?
But it’s cool. I’m sure you love Kenny Omega. And you know more about this business and friendship than I do. 😉

Dude, I’m far from distraught. I’m in a good place. I’m just really bummed that I had a true friend turn his back on me for no other reason than the company that employs me.

Punk didn’t speak to the media on Saturday night due to being transported to the hospital for a facial CT scan after losing a one-sided unanimous decision to Jackson. He later sent out this tweet in the middle of the night.
You win some, you lose some! I'm 1-1 this week and I'll take it! Thanks to my team, my family, my friends, and THE FANS! Wouldn't be here without any of you. Respect to @TheTruthJackson, thanks for the fight! You only live once, and… I'M ALIVE! pic.twitter.com/UPPGFpx4iS
