TSC Decides: Who is better, Daniel Bryan or CM Punk?

[R=G]

Will as in cm punk willed his way into his situation with his mouth piece.

Daniel Bryan had a gimmick that worked wonders for him. The gimmick took a life of it's own & helped make him more likeable.

More people cared about cm punk before the pipebomb promo than people cared about Daniel Bryan before the yes gimmick.

Yep Punk was pretty over pre 2011 but Bryan was cheered pretty hard and stayed over no matter what. Events dancing stuff with the Bella didn't kill his connect with fans. CM Punk has never been more over than Bryan was at the Raw after WM 28.

Never was mainstream as Bryan either....

This is a straight up lie

Punk was appearing on entertainment (non-wrestling) talk shows, sports shows, radio shows and podcasts. People outside of the wrestling world knew who CM Punk was when he was still in wrestling. I never saw Daniel Bryan on anything remotely non-wrestling related. Punk has a much bigger mainstream presence than Bryan, and it's not even close.

How can it be a lie when sports teams did the Bryan shyt more than anyone ever spoke of Punk? When Punk did his small media tour after the pipe bomb..they all asked about the Rock at some point..get real. Nexus outdrew the Summer of Punk yet u trying to act like he took over the game like when fans turned on two different Rumbles? Wtf...lol

Sports teams have been swagger jacking wrestling for decades. They play Hardcore Holly's theme song in sports arenas. Is Hardcore Holly a mega superstar too?

If you're talking about the "YES" chants, the whole "YES" thing came from Diego Sanchez in the UFC. UFC fans were chanting "YES" with Diego during his entrances all the way back in 2009 before Bryan made it his thing.

My point is, you can go ask a random person on the street if they know who CM Punk is or if they know who Daniel Bryan is & CM Punk is winning that poll every time.

Punk, but there are valid arguments for both

 

[CM_Burns]

Bryan. Punk was very good his last 4 years or so in WWE, but the D Bry vs Authority storyline was better than any story in Punks career, and D Bry was the better worker.

Character wise Punk beats him if you look at their careers, but Bryan really hit his stride as a character in his last year. People liked his WWE heel run, I thought it was stupid when you have a small guy that half the audience not only likes but sees as a god as a heel.

Yep more over than Daniel Bryan.

Daniel bryan`s rise had more to do with coincidence than what he brought to the table.

Cm punk's rise was more of a testament to what he brought to the table.

Only way to settle this is to post matches with shared opponents.

Coincidence? Looked deliberate at WM 28. Punk was given world and wwe titles...it all bombed. Didn't sell out except Chicago. Whole different story with Danielson. Punk got pushed like a big deal..Bryan was undeniable with fans like Eddie and Rocky were.

 

[Reality Check]

CM Punk was seen as a joke for damn near 3 years. Beaten by holly out of the Blue and passed up by Lashley. Str8 Edge Society was alright..mostly for Serena but Mysterio punked him alot. His ROH ending program was good. After the pipe bomb theatrics, everyone here got on his bandwagon. It didn't really make big money but it was talked about until he got complacent in his 2012 face run. AJ Lee stole the show from him. Outworked directly by Bryan in 2012. Very good on the mic in making his whiny promos come off as a faux rebel. But mostly hypocritical in nature.

Bryan went by the best in the world for years. Wrestled everyone in ROH IN near classics. The Nigel stuff was exceptionally great. They had him ribbed as Miz being his coach..he got over anyway. The Nexus angle was hot. Took the heat for it. Came back in the US TITLE hunt. Found his character in 2011 and he carried Smackdown with Henry. AJ Lee blew up after he heeled on post mania squash. He got ultra over as heel...has great matches with everybody. Team Hell No. Went back on top by 2013.

Bryan is the better performer and better on his feet than Punk and his promos are heartfelt which got over just as big as Punk at his hottest.

With the amount of bullshyt spin, you should be working for the Trump Administration.
