April Jeanette Mendez Instagram – When worlds collide in the best way!
Huge thank you to @cmpunk , @theajmendez , and @wwe for bringing the star power and the heart to PAWS Chicago!
As part of WWE’s Community Champions program, they stopped by our Lincoln Park Adoption Center, met some of our adoptable cuties, and jumped right in to help socialize the animals. And they didn’t come empty-handed…
They surprised us with a $10,000 grant to support our No Kill mission and unveiled a custom WWE Championship title belt naming PAWS Chicago a true champions for pets.
What made it even more special? CM Punk and AJ Lee adopted their soul dog, Larry, from PAWS. This visit was a way to honor him and the impact he had on so many.
From the ring to the rescue world — thank you for stepping up for homeless animals in such a big way. Chicago (and our pets) feel the love! | Posted on 28/Feb/2026 03:18:39
