True.

I don't know. Punk wrestled Moxley when Moxley was in FCW. Punk visited there as a main show superstar. Punk later contributed to the idea of Shield, and Moxley was one of the members. The issue would be out much earlier if they couldn't get along.

I think he was referring to Darby and Page, possibly MJF. You can tell with how Darby wrestles he is not taking advice from anyone, he's not doing things to keep himself out of harms way. Just too stupid. Page, well, we all know he's admitted he's not going to listen to the old guys and take advice, and MJF... probably a major douche in RL just as he is on camera.

Love Cm Punk and always will but we need to see the facts here. Seeing him come back and saying he is back home in WWE feels unauthentic. (Before anyone calls me an AEW fanboy no I am not I watch WWE, AEW and NXT. And Yes Tony Khan is doing a terrible job as a leader). It's like the promo he made on John Cena calling him the NY YANKEES, it's fair to say that is what Punk has become. No hate, but he is all business and has nothing really else to prove. For crying out loud the man lied saying he didn't punch and did, then fans went Fuck YA assault in the workplace. I never really comment on these things but to see where Wrestling fandom is heading it's sad. I know I will get shitted on but I just want someone to explain how this is all okay. At the end of the day Punk is getting the bag and hey good for him but he ain't the same guy I idolized as a kid. Still grateful that I am straight edge because of him.

CM Punk and AJ Lee winning both Royal Rumbles would be epic.

[@jonwoodmass2849]

Joe Hendry would be the perfect win with the ending being with Punk

[@AashishShresthaStudios]

So Punk basically and indirectly spoiled AJ Lee’s Rumble return and another feud with Cena possibly at Wrestlemania lol

[@Atomykpimp]

We never got to see Title vs Title in AEW when Punk came back from injury. Technically he never lost the belt in AEW even when he left!!! Hmmmmm…..I guess that still makes him AEW World Heavyweight Champion!!!

[@SefniVinalonn]

Punk admitted in his Helwani interview that he was pandering a little bit to the niche AEW audience with that line. He was caught in the excitement of early AEW and the recently fresh revitalization of pro wrestling there, and I don’t blame him. I wasted my time being fooled by AEW those first few years too.

I like this second coming of WWE CM Punk. The McIntyre storyline has me optimistic for future Punk programs.

[@Doc92IDH]

2014: "And yet no matter how many times I prove it, I’m not on your lovely little collector cups. I’m not on the cover of the program. I’m barely promoted... I’m not on the signature that’s produced at the start of the show. I’m not on Conan O’Brian. I’m not on Jimmy Fallon. But the fact of the matter is, I should be." 2024: "I'm front and centre on a lot of the signage I've seen... It's kind of daunting!" Honestly, Punk's career as a whole will always be my favourite story in wrestling. Dude smashed the glass ceiling, and then some. All mostly by being pretty damn great at everything.

[@alexcoleman8983]

Glass ceiling is for women. But I have heard it used for Punk, and Shawn Michaels. Shawn, I understand why, but Punk... I Wonder why they said it.

[@Doc92IDH]

@@alexcoleman8983 First part's a bit weird, but ok. The only guys who looked like Punk when he joined WWE never had a hope in hell's chance at a world title. He was also one of the first to work his way up exclusively through the indies.

we can't thank CM Punk enough for changing The Game

[@dddking9284]

Punk's honesty is one thing wrestling fans hate because he doesn't spare feelings of people. He's made a living on it and became a celebrity that even the Rock can't touch to how raw his words come across. Phil Brooks knows how wrestling as a business works thats what ignorant fans will never understand as they hang on all his words

Not doing a mixed tag team match of Punk and Skye Blue vs MJF and Jade in front of a Chicago crowd was a huge missed opportunity.

[@gregthegroove]

The Bucks “EVP’s” biggest mistake in their careers will be not wanting to let bygones be bygones, grow a set of balls and do business with Elite/Punk/FTR. This could’ve been a year long if not longer, 2-3 year program like the Bloodline. They could’ve brought in people from their pasts, forget about it. Even with Colt Cabana. A Colt vs Punk in a cage or gimmick would’ve been AWESOME and kept that company alive and going. I hope it doesn’t go down, I like competition but if AEW ever goes down, this and Cody leaving because he didn’t want to mix business with his dumbass friends he likes but have no business acumen or brains to be that high up in an executive role.
