CM Punk as a person has completely turned me off him in essentially every capacity.

I'd still mark out for a wrestling return though. I can't lie.

 

[tony d]

Yeah, Punk the person comes off as an idiot. Still his presence in wrestling is sorely missed.

Not an idiot, just an asshole.

Thing I got most from that pic is SummerRae looks nothing like she did with blonde hair...

Lol I go back and watch CM Punk commentary compilations all the time. He was unreal in that role

He was alright. Definitely good for a laugh but I don't know how he'd do in an actual play by play.

Punk isn't an idiot, he's just thinks he's right about everything

I don't think he'd ever be a guy to do play-by-play. He seems like a colour commentator and that role seems tailor made for him, too, if he ever wanted to get back into wrestling and dabble in commentary.

If Ambrose goes to Japan, be prepared for a potentially available Renee. There's no way that marriage survives if she's in WWE and he's in Japan.

So...uh...an available Renee as in she'll be single or looking for work in Japan....

 

[Emperoreddy]

Plenty of the all time greats are dirt bags in real life.

Punk is awesome and I would tune in.

Something will have to give. No relationship lasts when the two are oceans apart.

 

[GKJ]

It's not like if Ambrose goes to Japan, he has to live in Japan. It's like a 2-3 week tour each time he has to go, and that's presuming that he doesn't have a deal where they work out dates he doesn't have to be there. Young Bucks, AJ, Karl Anderson all did it just fine. He'd be gone for a while if he did G1, but I bet that if he didn't do any other dates, which wouldn't happen, that he'd be sitting at home more than Renee is.

I'd like to see Renee take a shot at ESPN or FOX Sports.

His NXT commentary during the women's season actually made it worth watching...

"I give the little boy robot an 'F'."

Or when Cole joined the commentary team: "This show is unbearable with or without you, but thank you for coming!"

Even Cole was f***ing funny: "Oh it's been riveting action out here, Punk. Riveting! RIVETING ACTION!!!"

 

[KaseMeOutside]

Cole was hilarious on NXT

Am I the only one who loved the Firefly Funhouse shit?

They're totally gonna f*** it up, but the potential it has is still fun to think about until they do. Bray perfectly hit the ever so subtle "This psycho mother f***er is gonna snap" vibes while still coming off like a babyface.

 

[bobholly39]

I'd absolutely love to see a CM Punk return in WWE.

If they do bring him back - they have to make his return monumental. They've actually done a decent job at that past few years with the really big names. The Rock's return in 2011 and Brock's return in 2012 were well handled initially - built as larger than life happenings. CM Punk should be done in a similar vein - and have the hottest program imaginable ready for his return (not sure off hand what that should be).

No all of us in the Raw and spoiler thread love it

 

[WingsMJN2965]

Brock's return was handled horribly initially. They had John Laurinitis as his hype man and he lost his first match back to Cena lol.

I think the story is after that contract signing segment with Cena he told Vince to bring back his jew. Like, literally those words.

Brock: "I don't think you should ever put a microphone in my hand again."
Vince: "What the hell are we gonna do then?"
Brock: "Call Heyman, that's what he does. He's my Jew!"

 

[Sheppy]

Man, when you go back and look at Brock during his return to the WWE. He’s so soft, haha. He looked absolutely tiny.

Also, apparently sponsors want the WWE to drop the new Bray Wyatt gimmick.

 

[M.C.G. 31]

The sponsors can go eat a dick in this case.
