There is no confirmed quote from Roman Reigns to CM Punk after Punk’s elimination at the 2025 Royal Rumble. WWE’s official recap describes the eliminations and the ensuing ringside action, but does not report that Reigns said anything to Punk. That leaves the alleged exchange unverified—not proof that no exchange took place.
What happened during the Royal Rumble
WWE’s official Royal Rumble 2025 recap says CM Punk eliminated Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins at the same time. Logan Paul then eliminated Punk. Afterward, Rollins attacked Reigns and later brawled with Punk at ringside.

WWE’s match statistics list Reigns as entrant No. 16, eliminated by Punk, with a match time of 0:37:15. They list Punk as eliminated by Logan Paul, with a match time of 0:18:46. These are the participants’ listed times in the men’s match, not evidence of a conversation.
Does WWE confirm what Reigns said to Punk?
No. The official recap does not report a line from Reigns to Punk after Punk’s exit. WWE’s official highlight listing identifies the clip as Rollins snapping on Reigns and Punk after elimination, but the accessible listing provides no dialogue transcript. Neither source establishes a specific remark from Reigns.

So a precise answer to the title question cannot be given as fact: the available sources do not confirm that Reigns said anything to Punk after Punk was eliminated. They also do not establish that no exchange occurred. Without a source recording the conversation, any specific quote would be speculation.

In its Feb. 3, 2025 report on Raw, Pro Wrestling Torch reported that Punk discussed the Royal Rumble backstage and described it as a silver lining that neither Reigns nor Rollins won. That was Punk’s later comment about the result; it is not evidence of what Reigns said to Punk after the elimination.
