CM Punk certainly has a love, hate relationship with fans.
In the latest in what has become a series of recent incidents with fans trying to meet Punk, a woman and her kids can be seen waiting for him in a hotel lobby after a WWE show.
Punk completely ignores them, including a small child and a teenager.
One of the fans posted a video of the incident:
“Don’t ever meet your heroes”

In the video, a person who we guess is the mother of the boys, expresses her disappointment telling them it sometimes isn’t a good idea to “meet your heroes”.
“He is a punk,” she laughed saying they just happened to be staying in the same hotel and her kids recognized him as they arrived at the exact same time to check in.
“He just mad dogged us and walked away,” said the teen.
The younger boy joked about knocking on every door to locate Punk.
Punk posted a message on Instagram that has since been deleted saying:
Ahi for breakfast. Breakfast of champions. Please do not follow me to my hotel. Las Cruces, you were lovely—loud and fun. See you all soon. Albuquerque on deck. Thank you. SEE YOU AT THE MATCHES.
The mother responded with:
We did not stalk him or invade his space. We arrived at the hotel at the same time as some of the wrestlers. A little smile or wave would have been nice, but instead, he totally ignored the boys and walked past them after the boys acknowledged him. No pasa nada.
