The general consensus backstage was that Punk calling out the fan, and Paul Heyman being quick to integrate the incident into his own talking points, added to the segment and subsequent showdown with Curtis Axel. Word is Punk was in a particularly bad mood that day.
Fans who were in attendance said the fan, though he was being obnoxious by booing Punk, didn't seem to say or do anything over the top to warrant such a response.
