Now I want reality? CM Punk was exposed long ago as a crybaby. What I said was just a fact...
You yourself said

They had the Rebel beat Del Rio, be competitive with Brock, and had him beat Shelton a few times in ECW. They would fukk this guy up in like 40 seconds in a shoot...lol.

Probably Sonya Deville too..
The fact is pro wrestling is not a shoot. No one in their right mind would ever believe Punk could take either of those three in a street fight. The fact is a vast majority of the roster wouldn't have lasted in a mma fight.

@R=G do you seriously hate Punk because of a scripted feud between him and the Rock and the fact that he has your dream woman AJ Lee?
Nope. That's just the narrative TSC created because I went from CM Heel to calling out the double standard sh1t he hated on Rock's WM 28 match in all of his talk show interviews post PIPE BOMB and promoted him vsAustin as better..as a surrogate. He's a money hungry nygga just like the rest of them....in the end, I was proven right and he ended up quitting on everyone in this thread typing out paragraphs defending his goofiness.

Austin didnt come back for him because clearly he didnt think he would draw..he ended up making things right with Rock behind the scenes by early 2012..and he couldnt draw as champion until the Rock got a title shot. All good on this side. I expose fake rebels daily...

Of course the roster guys wouldnt last but they didnt quit pro wrestling to do it and tried to get you to pay money to watch a circus...they didnt take a roster spot from someone who was actually good either. Punk did all of that. It's just who he is.

He had two fights, whose spot did he take? Dana has done this countless times. No one in their right mind thought a past his prime, overweight James Toney had a chance in hell against Randy Couture but Dana made the fight anyway. Why, because he was a name. I don't fault Punk for taking two big pay days. No one on the card made less money because of their placement. Overeem still got paid and he was on the prelims.

I gotta fault him its double standard game he came up talking about..he cried about that all the time. That was
his rebellious 101 go to line...now he's silent as a mouse.

Punk was so bad I don't even want him to comeback unless it is to put someone over. Imagine them trying to book a Punk vs Strowman match nowadays? The eye test still matters at certain levels.
Strowman vs Balor? Unless Finn has some legit credentials we don't know about, would the eye test make you believe Finn could take Braun in a shoot?

I just don't want to see dude work anymore. I was never that big a fan when he was in his "prime". I'm really good on him at whatever stage this is. He got played with by a bum. At some point, I can only insult my own intelligence so much watching rasslin. I have limits breh.

Yeah that's exactly my point..like we all know someone like the miz or finn balor ain't tough guys but we can suspend our beliefs because we never seen them catch a fade in real life ....once you see it you can't use unsee it...punks ruined
