Feb. 17 (UPI) -- World Heavyweight Champion confronted his next opponent Finn Balor and newcomer Je'Von Evans won the biggest match of his young career on WWE Raw.

CM Punk and Balor met in the ring on Monday where they got honest with each other during a war of words. Balor was backed up by his Judgement Day teammates JD McDonagh and AAA Mega Champion and Intercontinental Champion, "Dirty" Dominik Mysterio.

Balor, in referencing how Punk refers to himself as the "best in the world," said the champion had not studied in Europe, Japan and Mexico like he had to hone his skills.
