CM Punk Blasts “Fake” WWE

CM Punk Blasts WWE “It Doesn’t Mean Anything. It’s Fake.”

UFC trainee and former WWE Superstar CM Punk spoke about his exit from pro wrestling this past Sunday as part of a Q & A session at Chicago Comic Con.

“I just couldn’t do it any more,” Punk said about WWE. “It didn’t make any sense to me. I would put my boots on and shuffle my feet and walk out there and be like, I don’t even know. It doesn’t mean anything. It’s fake.”

Punk has received a lot of heat in social media and fan forums for saying pro wrestling doesn’t mean anything and it’s fake. To cheapen his own WWE career and the wider wrestling fraternity, it is the kind of comment that he would’ve scoffed at just a few years ago. During his WWE career he was reportedly obsessed with the idea of closing WrestleMania and the meaning that carried.

Punk is not happy at the way his comments from Chicago Comic Con have been interpreted and tweeted the following:
