I used to not like Bruce Prichard at any level. I thought he was a nobody who was just cocky and arrogant who didn't know too much. Plus I thought as I listened to various podcasts that he was on and he's grown on me so much. My apologies if Bruce reads this. I enjoy your wisdom and experience and you like know so much behind the scenes. I really look forward to more of your conversations and podcasts. 🎉❤
I remember the indy hype after his Samoa Joe matches around 2004. At the time my GF and I were going to PWG cards and after hearing Punk was signed by WWE, I saw he was on the upcoming PWG show, probably finishing up his indy commitments before going to WWE, and I told my GF: "Hey! This guys is supposed to be amazing!" He did the match right before intermission....it was boring..it was lame...My GF was like "What? THIS is the guy all that hype was about?" Sp he finishes his match, intermission starts and he goes right to his gimmick table. I walk up and say: "Congratulations on the WWE deal"....He was cordial...but my take away from that first match and meeting was.......This guy is all hype.
Hey Hey...Vince always wanted wrestlers to finish their dates before going to WWE...you mean like Hogan in AWA after all his promos were done for upcoming shows and he just didn't show up?? guess I'm nitpicking right?
It’s been said that McMahon uses shady underhanded business tactics. He’s probably done shit we couldn’t even imagine. Like had JFK killed or some shit.
There's is that whole part of the situation where Verne Gange was willing to pay somebody to break Hogan's legs. With that in mind, if I was Vince, I definitely would have told Hogan to finish his dates in the AWA. * rolls eyes *
I like listening to Pritchard, but come on. He could be in a room with a stadium sound system blasting things at him and he still would not have heard it.
fun fact. the cm actually stood for coke machine. he loves Pepsi that's why he has the tattoo. he used to go around destroying coke machines and was dubbed the coke machine punk when he was a kid.... cm punk.....
Never was a Punk fan. Respect his career in wrestling but I believe he lost any credibility he had as when he went to the UFC. I respect him trying but he was way out his element.
Never liked Punk. He looks like a guy that should be wrestling at the fairgrounds for 100 bucks. If he put some muscle on it would be a different story. I hate wrestlers that don't look like wrestlers.
Adam Sandler Deserves An Oscar no but he was never thought of as the top guy by the fans or the company. Company never thought Punk was their top draw but the gay internet fans that like watching flipping and flopping did. The regular, casual fan will never pay to see average looking guys do flips and shit. They want the larger than life superhero, muscled up guys.
Ryan Stevens Foley defiantly was considered a top guy by fans maybe not "THE" guy but still a top guy nonetheless if he wasn't considered a top guy by the fans then explain why so many people switched from Nitro to Raw to watch his first championship win he was the third biggest star behind only Austin and Rock I'm not a fan of the flippy indie wrestling either but bodies don't mean shit if the wrestler sucks ass and has no charisma and is trash on the mic WWE as a whole right now is the drizzling shits right and it has nothing to do with the size of someone's biceps it's the shitty storylines and the lack of charisma and mic skills
Thats why CM Punk got over, for the exact reasons you dont care for why he is over. Vince stapled this image in your head that you have to be a muscled up larger than life person to get over. Prior, it was all about technique. And Vince created that image that you need to look muscular. It worked for years, but just like time, people change. They have different interest. If you can go, you can go. People are tired of paying money to see a 5 move big guy and go home annoyed. Face it, that day is over! Reigns vs Samoa Joe proved that for instance, people left the PPV. Reigns isn't over due to no fault of his own. He was a big good looking guy shoved down people throats and the fans regurgitated. Side note: Most of the big muscular guys looked to be in their 50's when they were in their 40's. The ones in their 50's look 70. The ones that weren't jacked on steroids and average build look their appropriate age. Edge for example is in his 40's and looks early 30's.
Kendall Fleming Edge sucked in my opinion but was a juicer anyway. He was suspended for it. Idc but these gay looking carnie wrestlers are why nobody watches.
I think CM Punk has lost a lot of credibility...he just got his ass kicked and twice ....now he can come back but he is going to have to humble himself cause every person he feuds with has awesome promo material against him 😯
Punk forgot he was a fan, if he wasn't...why would he have signed with the WWE...if he did it simply for the money, well that does not say much for him or his passion. If he loved it and was passionate about it he would have taken what he had to at first...he pushed HIMSELF out of the WWE because he thought he was so good.
He left WWE, because they killed his passion for the sport. He was a Top Guy who actually drew for WWE, and they treated him like qa 2nd class citizen.
@Last Drop Falls Punk was a draw, he put Butts in seats and. Brought viewers to the product.he deserved his championship run, he was a great talent. Putting part timers over him and not allowing him to Main Event ppvs was some bullshit. I get why you people don't like him quitting, but I also get him not feeling valued.
He signed with WWE because that was the next step for him. He had nothing more to accomplish on the independent circuit I hate CM Punk but your argument againsthis passion is beyond stupid.
The idea of leaving ROH or the Indies at this point in time being a knock against passion is pretty silly. The indies ar this time werebt what they are now where people can make a solid living on that circuit. So the idea of sticking in that at this time over going to a WWE is realistically expecting a guy to starve or struggle financially all for passion over ascending to the top level and making a healthy living. It isn’t even remotely a realistic thing to expect from a person. Maybe nowadays where you can make a solid living outside of WWE but at this stage of time wwe was the only place to really make any kind of substantial income in wrestling.
I never cared for punk or Ring of Honor! To me it was for the hard core fan who didn’t care about build up or spectacle only two guys wrestling each other and not much more! I gotta give WWE that they put on a show it’s a big spectacle when they come to town in the bigger events anyways. And I know little company’s like this need to exist so people can learn and get over with fans but they will never draw mainstream money or fame like WWE or WCW in it’s day! I even placed TNA and ECW over Ring of honor. They just had a generic indie look to them I never liked. Even Smokey mountain tried to make it a big deal!

Summary of this interview: "Do you remember this?" Nope. "Were you around for this?" Nah. "Did you hear about this?" Sure didn't.
Not really
So far, 52 people didn't listen to the entire ~30-minute clip.
...Would you rather him make something up and lie about it?
@@pentalwaylike Eric Bischoff does?
Every damn interview and Bruce is like “ I was there but I don’t remember that”.
He sounds like a hater honestly. It's bubbling on the surface it seems.
@Zedrik Allen With Bischoff he not only doesn’t remember it, it was somebody else’s idea.
Cause you all expect him to remember every single thing that ever happened ever at the drop of a hat.
That John Laryngitis impression is on point 😂
I'm back for the John laurinaitis impressions
Punk vs Styles would be classic
Keep in mind....Heyman had Ryback and Curtis Axel...
Get the fuck outta here he was the only guy in wwe to become a legend and they fucked it up ... idiots
Cesaro too.

I thought 2011 was referred to as the summer of punk.
What's written on C.M. Punk's wrist tape on his right-hand?...
Imagine that johnny ace impression 8 minutes in if this ep came out today lol

Maybe not nitpicking, just bitching about things from over 30 years ago.
It’s been said that McMahon uses shady underhanded business tactics. He’s probably done shit we couldn’t even imagine. Like had JFK killed or some shit.
That was when Verne Gagne told Hulk Hogan he wouldn't put the AWA World Title on him unless he married his daughter.
There's is that whole part of the situation where Verne Gange was willing to pay somebody to break Hogan's legs. With that in mind, if I was Vince, I definitely would have told Hogan to finish his dates in the AWA. * rolls eyes *
Punk is and was the shits.
Agree
Scotty 2 hotty Taylor defeats the best in the world in an untelevised dark match lol
Ufc proved he wasn't shit
yea. two losses proved his class.
I like listening to Pritchard, but come on. He could be in a room with a stadium sound system blasting things at him and he still would not have heard it.
WWE's lose becoming AEW's gain? Lord knows I hope so. It's sad that CM Punk is just wasting away
welcome to 2021 brother. see you friday
@@deekenny6256welcome to 2023 my guy. Punk is free from the kiddie table
CM took EGOMANIA to a whole new level. Nobody will ever love Punk as much as he loves himself.
Me, myself and punk.
fun fact. the cm actually stood for coke machine. he loves Pepsi that's why he has the tattoo. he used to go around destroying coke machines and was dubbed the coke machine punk when he was a kid.... cm punk.....
rat rod Ron that’s not true at all. The “cm” stands for “chick magnet”. Chick magnet punk.
Lol what strain are you smoking?
Pepsi and coke are interchangeable lol?
It actually stands for Cock Muncher
Mooey Thai
Never was a Punk fan. Respect his career in wrestling but I believe he lost any credibility he had as when he went to the UFC. I respect him trying but he was way out his element.
Christian Edwards I don’t see how fighting for real can hurt you in a fake performance
Last Drop Falls he’s a pussy for losing to pro fighters? Why are yanks so thick ffs
He’s a punk alright. No athletic talent whatsoever his ufc run was revealing and hilarious
What's that smell? It's CM Junk.
Never liked Punk. He looks like a guy that should be wrestling at the fairgrounds for 100 bucks. If he put some muscle on it would be a different story. I hate wrestlers that don't look like wrestlers.
Ryan Stevens so you hate Mick Foley?

CM PUNK was a complainer.
CM Punk, biggest generic trash in Wrestling... another "Great mini White Hope" ...
He sucks.job guy in any big era. Mid to late 80s, mid 90s to early 00s. Might not even had made it.
