He should have main evented 29 along with Cena and Rock. It just should have been a triple threat. Especially since Rock and Cena already had a one on one match. He should have won too. I would have put Dolph Ziggler in the match with Taker. It would have raised Dolph’s profile (the same way matches with Taker did to Triple H, Orton, and Batista) and you know Dolph would have made Taker look great. He would have sold his ass off and hid all of Old Man Taker’s limitations (the same way Punk did). Then the next night would have been even better when Dolph cashes in on Del Rio.
@@sochioranmyaku It should have been a triple threat, Cena pins the Rock to win and gets that "beat the rock" on his record, then Punk can say he never lost and go with his "i was wronged" aspect of his character to chase for the title back as the story going forward
@@sochioranmyaku I dont disagree, but Cena should have beaten the Rock at the last mania. They weren't going to have him not get that win back once he lost
Opposite but similar. Punk is definitely the Austin of that era. The torch was never passed, so maybe that's why the industry has derailed, but there is no one like either of them today.
Eh they’re not really polar opposites as characters, they were playing almost the same role lol, just with different styles. Both anti-establishment, anti-corporate “I’ll do what I want” rebels.
@@TheWebAdict nah Bryan was the Austin of that era. The fans loved Bryan no matter what. Cena was Rock and Punk was HHH because of his backstage politics, cheating on a Gf to marry someone else and constant need to have the title while refusing to put others over.
@@HSMak "Polar Opposites yet so similiar" they are similiar in both of their characters being Rebels going against The Authority - but they are opposites in that CM Punk was Straight Edge and so he doesnt drink smoke or do drugs - While Steve Austin was always drinking beer. the sort of differences that were at play in his feud with Jeff Hardy also. i guess thats what people mean when they say that - both rebels, but with different life styles.
Punk vs Steve Austin in early 2010s would have been epic. I don't know about the match but imagine the promo wars in the lead up to the match. Missed opportunity.
@@jack_green re-watch the video. Punk says there was a brief moment when it looked like that match with Austin was going to happen. Hence missed opportunity. You should always watch the sit down interview punk had with Austin and Jim Ross. It's brilliant.
That dark match he’s talking about was on Long Long Island Austin ended up dropping stunners on Punk, Miz, Sheamus and truth still remember being at 11 years old 😭
@@bwcreative5717 when did he explicitly state that? i know theyve had some problems in Ring of Honor or something cuz K.O. was refusing to dress like the rest of them or something but I dont remember ever hearing KO say he "hates" him. hate is a rly strong word lol. these are two grown men not children.

Thats how it works with literally every single one of these guys who charge you to watch the full interviews same with inside the ropes its annoying as hell
@@RKO1988 no its the fact there is a global pandemic and starcast only happens once a year and seeing as they aren't allowed to have people at the shows which is the whole point in having the event there is no reason they would be having any more interviews 🙄
@@seevee2148 I know yeah I saw it the other day i watched it when it first came out so I never looked for it on here but it showed up in my recommendations
He wants the Lesnar/Rock schedule. Lesnar/Rock come back for a few matches and main event all the PPV's and win titles. Unfortunately, he has never done anything even close to what those guys have done to get that. To be honest, punk is amazing with a mic. I don't care much about his matches as much as the build-up to those matches, in WWE there are far better wrestlers than he ever was Rollins, Styles, Bryan and even John Morrison.
Would have loved a CM Punk vs Daniel Bryan main event at Wrestlemania when Bryan was at the height of his popularity. You could of had Punk as the heel and it would have been absolutely incredible! You could of even had Punk be a servant of the authority(deep down would have hated this but would have still killed it.) and you could have done an angle around Royal Rumble where he shocked everyone and joined the authority and people would have absolutely hated him for it. I think that even with this being his first Wrestlemania main event, he would have put Bryan over in a heartbeat. Damn, even without all of that, by having them both babyfaces and detailing their history dating back to Ring of Honor, you would STILL of had the potential for record numbers. Damn, if only they gave the guy a month or two off!
Pretty sure I was at that San Diego show he was talking about. My first time at a wrestling event and I had no fuckin clue who Steve Austin was. Bret Hart was there too. That dark match was with Rey and I don’t remember if Steve came out and stunnered him, but holy shit I just got a flood of memories back. EDIT: Lol nvm. Different show.
Hypothetically if he still comes back, even then they won't give him the main event at Wrestlemania. He should have main evented wrestlemania in 2013 because that was the perfect timing and placement for him. Rock vs Cena in 2012 wasn't so great that you had to follow it up again the next year in the same slot. He just knows that the company has got nothing worthy which it can offer.
@@JoshuaRoss2 So an underage girl snuck into a bar and got herself blackout drunk, and then Scurll had the audacity to assume that a person drinking in a bar might be of legal drinking age?
If he wants to comes back someday, he shoul return in royal rumble and win. Then go to wm main event and then he would have done it all. Amazing career non the less but that would be great for him.
I kinda wish there were footage of that dark match of Stone Cold shocking the arena, coming out, and giving all the heels a stunner to cap off the show. That would've been amazing. The pop it would've received would've been epic.
@@BlankoMitzi yeah but the whole point to a wrestling angle is to think that both guys have a shot at winning. when cm punk has already been spanked by this guy in less then one round. he can cut all the promos he wants the people have already seen it. plus lets say cm punk was set to win there wrestling match. the fans would cringe on how forced it looked. just my oppinion what ya think ???
I’ve watched wrestling all my life and I never really heard about cm punk I did but wasn’t interested in him lol but I will say the last couple years of his career was great
Unify the titles and have Punk return versus Bryan (defending champion) at Mania. Bryan is pure face, Punk is Austin circa 2001 desperate to do anything to win the title. Watch money roll in.
Would love to see him and Bray Wyatt's Fiend do a firefly funhouse. Just straight Main Event next year. A la the Cena career fffh match. I think it would be dope. He could appear 8 times total and it would be fun
If Punk came back as a special, part-time featured NXT guy, he could have some exceptional matches with some of their top guys. He’d also do well working a harder style with AEW, but they probably can’t afford him in an in-ring role.
one dream match to this day, forgive me if they had, undertaker vs sting and i know they havent, stone cold vs cm punk. the two matches would have put asses in seats (all in their prime of course).
@@mattawan1000 Okay had Benoit not turned into a murderer and all that stuff. I get your point but I'm saying had Benoit not did what he did and wrestled to win the ECW championship, Punk may have had a different character completely.
I'd love to see CM Punk, Best in the World, against The Phenomenal One AJ Styles. Then I'd love to see John Cena come back and have another rivalry against Edge with the title on the line.
This needs to happen Cm Punk vs. Cena @ Wrestlemania... Winner of the match gets the following year"s Wrestlemania in their home town. Make it a Boston vs Chicago thing.
You know I think people are asking CM Punk the wrong question, he is entertained by UFC only wrestling company that comes close to UFC is ROH.. Im quite sure he is tired talking about WWE. But CM Punk vs Jay Lethal or Jay Briscoe thats most hardcore matches ever.. I cant remember last time WWE ever had a "hardcore" match
He's a good wrestler but I think any fued would be more about the promos than the match so a Will Osprey would be a no. Maybe Roman Reigns, Omega , Owens or Jay White
He won't return anytime soon, he will keep in shape and just wait for a full house show so he can hear that fucking pop with his OWN hears and so management can hear it as well! He was always good for business, we all new that.
Would be epic bro! But better with a full house pop... imagen it it would be like when Dwayne returned back on 2011, same pop as when the hardys returned as well and the Dudley's.
