WWE: Stephanie McMahon Burns CM Punk On RAW

12/27/2016 09:41 am EST

Monday Night RAW is live in Chicago tonight, which of course meant it wouldn't be long before the Chi town faithful began breaking into their customary "CM PUNK!" chants.

Tonight, that chant started roughly thirty seconds into Stephanie McMahon's opening promo when the crowd foolishly tried to interrupt the RAW commissioner.

Stephanie was clearly prepared for the chants as she immediately hit them with a dig at the second city savior, saying, "If you could keep that up for 2 minutes and 15 seconds, you'd last 1 second longer than CM Punk did!"

The crowd quickly dropped their chants and sat in silence. It was yet another brilliant moment by the woman that has as much control over a WWE crowd as anyone in the business.

Sadly, the Chicago crowd would again break into a CM Punk chant only 6 minutes later when Roman Reigns appeared. We could be in for a long two nights as Smackdown LIVE will also be broadcasting from Chicago tomorrow evening.
