Punk always looked the :mjpls: type but I’ve never heard him on some bullshyt :ehh:
Except for that time when he wore a Charles Manson shirt on Raw.

lemme guess, punk said more agreeable things about the whole matter than the actual two black men on the panel who are notoriously boot licking shills
I didn't watch it mainly because of that screencap. They ask for their "expertise" during Black History Month and when a talent says something racist.

CM Punk, like Jim Cornette, lives for taking the moral high ground. I think that this comes from that, rather than actually caring for black people and not wanting to see injustice or harm done. Remember, he was going out of his way to pick a fight with Chris Brown, years after the Rihanna incident, and talked about "curb stomping" him. Which is only a thing because of American History X.

Mark Henry's on that shyt too? I didn't know. :ohhh:

He had enough awareness to stop the "Silverback" storyline because he thought it was racist, but I guess it's more nuanced than that. What are examples of him doing what Booker T does?

Maybe.

Kofi was one of Punk's best friends in the locker room when Punk was wrestling. They occasionally hung-out after Punk left the WWE too. Punk said in interviews the only wrestling he was watching at one point was just the New Day segments for Kofi & Big E. He said he didn't know Woods. Kofi said on the New Day podcast that they don't really see each other much or talk anymore because they've been so busy with their own lives. Punk also spoke about Kofi winning the title before his WWE return saying it should've happened 10 years sooner.

There's also the story of Big E & Punk's relationship. Big E was struggling on the main roster being the silent henchman, and Punk took him under his wing because he saw his talent. He specifically asked to work Big E on television, which kick started his main roster run. Big E talks about this in detail in one of the podcast/interviews, forget which one.

Where did the whole Punk being racist thing even stem from on here? Was it the Chris Brown tweet?
