CM Punk reaching 381 days on Wednesday as WWE Champion makes him officially the longest reigning champion of the modern era and in the last 25 years.
John Cena took to Twitter to talk about the accomplishment.
Injured or healthy, today @CMPunk is the longest reigning @WWE champ in modern era, it would be hypocritical not to acknowledge + respect it
Sometimes luck is as valuable as skill, but the record books will not say it was a ‘lucky 381 and counting’, it’ll just say 381, + counting
I do wish @CMPunk a speedy full recovery. He will need EVERYTHING he has to even step into a ring with @TheRock. I know from experience.
