What line is that?
He couldn't make fruity pebbles jokes and be over, otherwise he would have done it - he doesn't have the delivery. Besides, you're talking about a 40 or so year old wrestler who's been out of the game for nearly a decade. That fruity pebbles/popcorn fart shyt is outdated because The Rock is no longer connected to the wresting culture or even this current generation. With that said, Punk could never do what The Rock was doing from 1998 - 2001 and then come back for one of the greatest heel runs in 2003. In that same regard, anybody could do what Punk does. Literally anybody.
......when he's nowhere near that
It's not that people think he's good.....he actually IS fairly good and I've never taken that away from him. He rarely (if ever) botches and he speaks fairly confidently and intelligently
The problem is, he's just not that exciting or charismatic on the mic. He gets his point across mind you, and I wouldn't go as far as to say he's "boring" (that would be guys like Bret and Lance Storm, who sometimes did verge on that "boring" sound just by the tone of their voice, even though Bret could sound convincingly angry/confident when he needed to)....but at the same time, he's no Dwayne......he's no Austin......he's no Hogan.....he's no HBK....he's no Jericho.
He doesn't have that delivery that indicates that he's an interesting/exciting character. At best, he just sounds like your average angry white man. Even Cena stands out more than he does in that regard, as wack as a lot of his actual promos are
Yet his stans would have you think that he's one of the GOATs on the mic
That's the problem.....dude is overrated on the mic

product will tune in to RAW when we hang out JUST to hear CM Punk.
Shawn has some of the most boring promos of all time
is this nukka serious? my grandma likes great khali so he must be the best wrestler evaaaBreh you have got to be kidding yourself, I got multiple people that don't even care about wrestling that listen up when Punk is on the mic.
My girlfriend, my friend's sister, my buddy who doesnt watch wrestling anymore cause of WWE's
We LOST it when he said he was God.
I was in a room with like 15 ppl and it ERUPTED when he told The Rock that his arms are too short to box with God.
I got another friend that's studying to be an English teacher, showed her the promo where Punk talks about how he's the only one that can bear the burden of breaking the streak. She was like
BASICALLY, YOU nikkaS CANNOT BE SERIOUS
is this nukka serious? my grandma likes great khali so he must be the best wrestler evaaa
low ratings and ppv buys for punk show that most people dont care about his shtick.
First of all, I have it on good authority that your grandma does not like Great Khali.
Second of all, let's take Stone Cold Steve Austin, but instead of surrounding him with Mankind, The Rock, DX, The Ministry and the son of a bytch evil Vince Macmahon in a world infused with violence, swearing, middle fingers, vehicular assault and not giving a fukk.... we put him in tag team matches with Wade Barret and Jack Swagger in a PG world where a wigger rapper turned fake marine is
By your logic, Stone Cold Steve Austin is just not good.
BE REAL.
Stone Cold would be different in this era but he would be just as popular. You know why? Because he has natural star power that allowed him to become what he was. He was able to think of an original character, something that wasn't copied off of anyone else, no cheap ass shooting promos, no breaking kayfabe. All the catchphrases, the beer truck stunts, the taunts, even the look - all thought of by one man. This is something that Punk is simply not good enough to do or channel. Now let's put CM Punk in the Attitude era, he...wouldn't even be in the WWF.
Really? That gimmick was given to him and he did the best he could with it. I guarantee you that if CM Punk was assigned a gimmick that wasn't natural to who he was he would tank completely. He's gotten every break in the book from what I can tell. "Hey, go be straight edge - oh okay cool - I already am". "Eh, that shyt's not working, here is the mic - go break kayfabe since you can't be a draw by having a character, just do what every teenage wrestling fan with a youtube account and a webcam does - cool, gotcha." When Steve Austin took creative control into his own hands he molded himself into a superstar. On the other hand, when CM Punk was GIVEN creative control he resorted to doing cheap shyt to get himself over and even then he could never get himself 1/1000 of the popularity that Stone Cold held in his prime. Tell me this, has CM Punk ever come up with any interesting or original idea that didn't involve him shooting on the politics backstage?
