WWE star C.M. Punk and NFL player Shawne Merriman had a fun Twitter exchange over the weekend. "Watching Shawne Merriman of the buffalo bills hit on our divas and strike out, reminds me of the Bills in the Super Bowl," Punk wrote before adding "choke" as the tag.

Merriman fired back on his own Twitter page. "I was just giving you guys some hope look like you were struggling by the pool," Merriman wrote. "Sympathy from Lights"

Punk came back by writing: "If you could get to a QB as fast as you ran after our divas maybe you'd make headlines being a pro bowler and not a creep."

Merriman added: "How about I come and deliver a nice special lightsOut ass woopin tonight Costa Rican Style."

Punk's final Tweet on the matter: "Clearly, I have defeated you. However, You will have plenty of time to think of a better come back while you ride the bench for another entire season. Good luck getting to the Super Bowl! With love, CM Punk.

Merriman closed it out by writing: "Do me a favor turn your little wrestling underwear around and give yourself a wedge - see you later Punk without the CM."

Powell's POV: I have no idea whether the exchange was tongue in cheek or not, but it makes for a fun read. Apparently, the exchange occurred while both men were in Costa Rica over the weekend. I'd like to personally congratulate the WWE Divas for showing taste if what Punk wrote about Merriman striking out is true. Thanks to Dot Net reader Mike Straw for passing along the Twitter exchange details.
