TheState.com ran a chat with CM Punk today, to hype the Smackdown tapings in Columbia, South Carolina tonight. Here are the highlights: On His WrestleMania Dream Opponent: “Last year, before I was in the MITB match, it was Rey. This year, it’s still Rey. Mania is a long ways a ways right now, so it’s hard to say where i’ll end up….but I do need a haircut….” On Tribute To The Troops: “Yes, as of now, I am scheduled to head to Iraq.” On Who he Would Like To Face: “If you think about it, you haven’t really even seen me warm up….Cena, hbk, hhh….” On How Long Will He Wrestle: “I’ve been wrestling 12 years now non stop with a little pit stop for a fractured skull. It’s hard to say when i’ll stop, but I don’t want to wear out my welcome OR do this forever. There is life after wrestling.”
