Top 20WWE's fault he isnt higher

but Vince and nem wasnt going for it
some of that blame could be placed with Punk

Top 15I can't put Punk in any Top 5 or 10 because really Punk wasn’t a top draw like a Hogan, Austin, Rock, or Cena. I give Punk props for publicly calling out Vince & HHH on their ? especially HHH. He is very outspoken individual and gives no ? about mincing words about who/what he doesn't like. Punk was a victim of WWE's incompetentance from the time he started. His time in ECW2.0, His failed first run as World Champion, S.E.S failed run etc, all of which creative had a hand in.
When he went on that summer tirade about Cena/HHH & The McMahons things only seem to change because he was walking out the door and the company didn't have anybody else but Cena. But even when Punk had that 14 month title reign ? didn't change because he never main event PPVs because part-time guys got those spots. Looking back, that horrible Cena/Rock II match from WM 29 should have been a triple-threat instead of Punk jobbing out to Undertaker in a match. After that the writing was on the wall for Punk. I can't blame Punk for walking out on WWE for being mistreated, abused, & put in ? storylines/matches. I just hate he walked out in the middle of Wrestlemania season.
I hope he does well in UFC because if he doesn't he can't come back to the WWE after all the beef & tension w/him and HHH. He would look like a fool. -

I give Punk credit, he woke up a dormant part of wrestling fandom. He then was able to get the wrestling geeks and the Average Joe to be into the same guy which is a rare occurance these days.

Top 5Top 10 for a new era guy, but not overall, he will prob fall top 15/20.
He's the guy that I just happened to catch the night he dropped that pipe bomb. Kid was into wrestling, I caught it in pieces here and there and when Punk did that, I sat down and was hooked.
He was great in the ring, amazing on the mic, did storytelling well, he got sloppy towards the end of his career. You could tell he was frustrated and tired. You could see it wasn't in his heart. He left due to ? w the bosses. Can't blame him. He could've been the top guy. Easily been a top draw, he was outselling Cena in merch at the time.
They should've gave him his shine. His WM moment. -

SES Punk is one of my favorite heel gimmicks of all time. Trolling Jeff Hardy, humiliating Rey Mysterio, it was all so good
