"CM Punk was backstage at this week's NXT, and as previously reported, kept a lower profile than his previous visits to the developmental brand. Earlier this week, Booker T shared a story on his Hall Of Fame podcast, claiming that he and Punk had "almost gotten into it" backstage at the taping.

In speaking to sources within NXT, Fightful's Corey Brennan was told there was a feeling of skepticism regarding Booker's comments, with no sources being aware of the confrontation prior to his podcast. One source pointed out that Punk has not had any issues backstage since his return last year, and expressed surprise that Booker would make such a claim without offering more context. Security was also not made aware of any such confrontation, with no talk of such an incident.

In addition, NXT sources told Fightful's Sean Ross Sapp that Punk has been very helpful and open to lending a hand any time he's been backstage at NXT since his return to WWE.

Punk was said to be in good spirits at the taping and largely kept to himself outside of speaking with Shawn Michaels, Matt Bloom and a few members of the NXT roster. One talent Fightful spoke with flat out denied the incident taking place, pointing out Booker's previous claims of heat between he and Corey Graves that turned out to be false.

There was a sense of frustration from those Fightful spoke to that Booker would make such a claim about Punk, given Punk's history with backstage altercations"
 
Like ive said for years Booker T is full of shit half the time if not most. Nothings changed..he the Meek Mill of wrestling.
