there was massive hype after he cut that promo… for like 4 weeks
too bad this was nothing more than the wrestling equivalent of Kendrick’s Control verse
meanwhile people still remember Brock breaking the streak/Drake on Stay Schemin’

We need CM Punk Back.
Always waiting to hear that riff. "LOOOOK IN MYYY EYES, WHAT DO YO SEEEE?? CULT OF PERSONALITY!!!
"
Punk requested a change..no request..no 434.This has to do with booking, not Punk.

no one outside the wrestling bubble really cares anymoreYou're tripping. shyt still gets talked about. Hell, Paul Heyman dropped a tweet about it yesterday.
even when it happened there was no noticeable ratings spike and Vince was disappointed after the MITB 2011 buyrate fell flat
In retrospect the most memorable thing that came out of the angle was “take a shower, hit the weights, get a clue”

Non-wrestling fans couldn't care less about this shyt.

What went on up there? Poppers and weird sex!
I didn't watch that episode of RAW so when I went to the review blog I normally read at the time, they were talking and I went, "What?" I think I watched it after that and I was convinced that he was shooting. I never heard a promo like that before, especially with him name dropping other companies and throwing shots at the McMahon family. There were a lot of memorable quotes here:
"He's a millionaire who should be a billionaire. You know why he’s not a billionaire? Because he surrounds himself with glad-handed, nonsensical, douchebag yes men, like John Laurinaitis, who’s going to tell him everything he wants to hear, and I’d like to think that maybe this company will be better after Vince McMahon is dead. But the fact is, it’s going to be taken over by his idiotic daughter and his doofus son-in-law and the rest of his stupid family!"
"This isn't sour grapes, but the fact that Dwayne is in the main event of WrestleMania next year and I'm not makes me sick!"
"You're the ones that buy those programs that my face isn't on the cover of, and then at five in the morning at the airport, you try to shove it in my face and get an autograph, and try to sell it on eBay, because you're too lazy to go out and get a real job!"
The second half of 2011 was a lot more interesting than the company had been in a long time, but letting this whole thing cool off was one of the worst mistakes they have ever made. Also, this was what cemented Punk's place as a top guy in my eyes.

Classic. Miss this guy. Dude was fun to have around.
Damn 6 years 
I dont remember Truth going over Cena
I don't remember Punk was rocking an Austin shirt
Anyone know what Punk was going to say about the Be A Star campaign?

Produced, Arranged, Composed and Performed by....
Top 5 promo this decade for me.
They're missing his type of voice/character in the current product.
Punk would go HAM every week on Talking Smack
