Mickey Gall Responds To WWE Spoofing His Fight With CM Punk
As noted, WWE spoofed CM Punk's UFC 203 loss during the Dolph Ziggler – Miz match at Sunday's WWE Backlash pay-per-view, as seen in the video below. The start of the match played out like the Punk – Mickey Gall fight, with Miz playing Punk and Ziggler as Gall. Ziggler ducked a wild punch from Miz and took him down and dropped some ground-and-pound. Miz, however, was able to escape the pummeling by making the ropes.
Gall spoke to TMZ Sports, which you can watch in the video above. During the interview, Gall was asked about the spot and said that it was "an honor."
"That's cool, man," Gall said. "It's an honor.
"I think it's not so much me but their feelings against him, so, I guess that's kinda crappy. But you know, hey, I loved it, it's cool man."
