Vince basically sounds like he didn't give a shit about Punk's health, No wonder he left.
Punk a liar, if all the shit he said was true he wouldn't be okay with WWE like he's now.
@@darkseidomega2585 ?
Bandersnatch Zero He not working for WWE, he working for FOX. Watch the whole interview before you comment dipshit
Lol he said morals aside hes okay with the right deal, nice to see the Punk marks still get triggered like the Justin Bieber fangirls 🤣🤣🤣
@Matthew McGonigal Thanks for not insulting bro, now I didn't say he would wrestle, agree with you he seems to want to do backstage stuff but hey HBK claimed before he was retired but the right amount of money made him wrestle one more match, let's see what happens.
Interviewer: Well I disagree, let's go get a beer."
*Immediately realizes he's talking to CM Punk*
Interviewer: "Or whatever."
Drink pepsi
He just seems so much more peaceful and happy. I'm so glad for him. He's at such a good point in his life. We should all strive for that point in our lives.
You need the Creator ☺️
Aged like milk
time heals all wounds... we all grow and become better
Totally get his point, is like when you had a relationship and everything turn sour, and then you break up but then you're so hurt you don't wanna be with anybody else for the same fear of being hurt again.
Yes 💯
Exactly that bro
Facts
and then you choose someone that is not suit for you and get fucked up even more , just like his UFC run
Y'all too emotional.
This makes me think what really happened to wrestlers like Eddie Guerrero or Chris Benoit...
Facts
I remember Kurt Angle saying he left wwe to avoid being next.
What Benoit did wasn't wwe fault Chris wasn't over used so what he did was his own doing no1 else's as for Eddie G. Well can't help accidents again was nothing to do with WWE
@@taltorelli kurt angle explained he was in a bad place with drugs ect nothing to do with WWE
@@TheUniversalGamer87 Kurt Angle said
Guerrero, Benoit, and himself were responsible for making their own choices, punk did like Angle and Chose to put himself 1st over WWE. RIP to the ones who chose to put WWE first.
0:40 when you realize you about to start a beef between your two estranged friends...
Roxy “how do you know they said that”
Way to ask dumb questions and not listen. Jesus
I used to think that people are exaggerating about Roxy but he literally just said how he obtained that information.
lol! It seems a LOT of journalists not only assume answers, but completely fabricate stories to suck up to the general public for views/clicks.
And besides, phil literally just seconds before answered that dumb question.
So true. What a dunce
"What do you mean by that?", "What does that mean?". Lol, that question is always waiting to be asked when she interviews.
Shes sneaky with those type of questions.
I read this as soon as she said the first question lol.
Shes a pain of an ass seriously
That lady interviewer is really not needed.. gosh
WWE is stupid for keeping old wrestlers out there to perform... Older guys like John Cena should have been promoted into creative roles where they could have control and teach younger talent how to perform at a high level.
Well that’s how you know he’s never returning to WWE
Never say never,look at the history other legends said they wouldn't work in Wwe again but did
The lennonator Iike bootista
If Fox wants Punk to wrestle, WWE will probably offer him a contract like Lesnar because it is Fox that pushed WWE to contact him. And this will probably happen because if Punk returns to WWE, probably Smackdown, Fox and WWE get more ratings and fans will be drawn to watch the show to see him.
The lennonator
Scott Steiner is NEVER COMING BACK.
@Jeff Pryce money talks and before you know it he will wrestle at crown jewel after being offered 1 billion dollars by the saudi prince. well maybe that's an exaggeration but u get the point
So did anyone else hear the question of “do u ever see yourself in the ring again” he said no. Anyone else hear that?
So that means he's coming back right?!?
Yes I heard that. And in another part of this interview he said he can do backstage stuff no problem but he's not interested if you offer him a wrestler contract. Should be pretty damn clear now what his stance is.
the question was "do you ever see a union".
People do funny things when 3 million dollars is offered to you to do a 3-4 month program that ends in a WrestleMania match. Might be 5-6 years from now, but I won't be surprised if it happens. I also won't be surprised if it doesn't though.
they all say that but they come back
He would be so funny in the WWE. Could continue what he was doing before. Calling WWE out
Still can’t believe they made him wrestle while he had a concussion.
And now he's in a better place, All Elite!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! God I love this company so much, since day one. Thank you Tony Khan!!!!!
You still look savage even tho there's alot of new wrestler in WWE
likely now the next time we'll see CM Punk in WWE is probably the day they induct him in the Hall of Fame
Fernand G that’s if they do
@@mohussein6286 that's true. We're still waiting for Owen to get in.....
Mo Hussein warrior and Bret are in it, punk will be in it
+Mike Smith: They would certainly make the fans like them more if they put Punk in the Hall of Fame. But I dont know if they can move over their Ego. Theyve always had a very big problem with that.
This comment didn't age well lol
1:30 "I will never put myself in a position where I can be harmed again"
No more UFC fights then?
UFC was like once a year or two for him, and neither fight took years off of his life. Wrestling nearly most nights of the year, through real awful injuries, is way worse.
i think he meant it in a different way. hurt as in kind of cheated or wronged. say, the ufc doctors take a good care of him after a fight - but if they didnt like in WWE and the staff would be telling him he still has to work anyway - that would be getting cheated/wronged/hurt. i think thats the way he meant it.
@@DaggerPrince no he means the injuries he got wrestling for the WWE.
Here's the difference, It's common sense UFC is a REAL combat sport and you WILL get at least a black eye unless your opponent is severely outclassed.
I'd argue many times the UFC is actually SAFER then the WWE.
Most Combat sport fighters may fight on average anywhere from 15-50 fights over their entire LIVES. WWE wrestlers are expected to wrestle up to 4 times a week for Live events and TV and you are expected to wrestle hurt (While if you fail a physical in the UFC the fight is scrapped).
Harmed Mentally ...he meant by that
Him: I have mountains of paperwork from the lawsuit about them discussing...
Her: how do you know that?
Him: uuumm..I have the aforementioned paperwork
She's as bad as Molly qerim from First Take
How do u know that?
Let me prove im a Blonde. Smh
I clicked on this so fast. You guys have the best guests
AEW guest
People are always going to want at least one more match from Punk but honestly, if he's happy with where he's at, that's all I can ask of the guy no matter how much I might want to see him wrestle again. I'd rather him stay out of the ring and be happy than force himself to wrestle for a paycheck when he's not into it on multiple levels.
Facts he’s back though
To bad he didnt leave with the WWE Championship
He did it
Always three sides to a story his, theirs and the truth.
Yet Vince admitted it
He mentioned that wrestling is much more cut-throat than any real sport and I think that's just logical. In sports, if you want to have a powerful top position, you actually need to do something about it in the sport itself. In wrestling, backstage politics come into play. You can become a main eventer, a champion even, by having the right connections. You just can't do that in say basketball. You can't be a starter if you don't prove yourself to deserve that spot and to deserve that spot you need to work together with a team. And especially with WWE, they have a guy who just needs to see you and like your look and he'll push you to the stars.
Football( as u Americans say soccer) is the most popular sport and I don't mean the overrated English teams
@@TheUniversalGamer87 First of all I'm not American. Secondly, what exactly is the point of this comment?
lol
well never say never ❤❤ cm punk is coming back to wwe after 10 years
Not anymore. See the latest news.
@@johns3491 lies watch the program :) you ll see
He's back
Damn I miss this guy! CM Punk!!! Wish you wrestled again... but if they’re doing you like that then I’m glad you left.... one of the best to ever do it 💯
Best was a back a long time ago⚡
HES BACK!!!
His intro song actually sums him up the best 'Cult of personality'
I have been saying this everytime someone tells me that This Fire Burns fits him better.
8 McMahon members disliked
I hope he doesn't return. Sounds like there's some serious mistreatment in WWE
WWE is just like every single sports league, if your not a superstar your going to be treated like shit
Wwe is more like Hollywood they don't care about talent they only care about money, greed, and taking your soul by the devil
@@kingofthegod8983 WWE is a business . In order stay alive they have to make money.if they don't make money wrestler and the people who work hard wont get paid
Respect to him, looking at landscape of the wwe he would been main draw for a solid 10 years, he walked away from 10+ million easily
Money isn't everything.
I don't know if they talk to him or if this is brought up another segment but to me it sounds like he has lost all the joy and fun that may come from being in the ring, being in the business. Which I don't blame him but it so sad to see especially given his talent and the level of matches we could be seeing from him with some of the guys outside and now inside WWE.
one of the realest conversations i've ever heard
"I won't put myself in a position where I coule be harmed"
UFC.
he meant in the context of long term damage that WWE put him through.
OMR risky wrestling moves have more chance of causing death than punches because you know you’re getting punched while in wrestling you don’t know what might happen whether it is a botched move or something. Example: undertaker vs goldberg
Didnt Punk get time off in 2013 after WM 29 and returned in June?
Yes but he had a bad injury and Punk claims that Vince insisted that he comes back earlier than scheduled because Payback was in Chicago and he needed to sell tickets since it's Punk's home town
You'd think with the bloated rosters wrestling has now granting time off and putting in substitutes wouldn't be as big of an issue, particular for non pay per view shows.
I remember when Shawn Michaels missed his match at No Way Out of Texas because his back was totally destroyed and Savio Vega took his place. Still ended up being a good show, even though Vega is no Michaels. Of course we remember Michaels wrestling at Wrestlemania 14 the next month with that torn up back and it was not a pretty sight.
Listening to this now that he’s back.
AEW confirmed! JK but for real great guest hope he comes back
AEW CONFIRMED! for cereal this time
He made my WWE childhood
I was upset at Punk for his comments and sounding like an entitled punk (no pun). But hearing this, makes me sound like he went through a lot. Mentally speaking. I’ve soften my stance on him as of late. Everyone grows and sounds like he did a lot of growing over the last 5 years.
I don’t blame him at all for how he left he had to do what was best and on top of that they wasn’t taking care of him the way a company should have the only stuff I believe bout cm punk comes from cm punk I support him either way
CM Punk looks great!
this guy is still alive
I hate when I accidentally hit the dislike button and then have to like the video out of guilt
I'm happy that Phil is doing better now compared to where he was. He dedicated 15 grueling years of his life to the business so he should be allowed to sit back and relax.
regardless the bs cm punk was one of the best on the mic
I just about facepalmed when she asked “how do you know they had these discussions” lmao
Fly It’s a legit question. It’s a matter of “Did you hear this from someone” or “Do you have proof they had these discussions?”
He clearly said he had the paperwork from the lawsuit about those discussions and she asked again
@@MrOuija-rr8kq You're right, it is a legit question. But when Punk literally mentions how he obtained this information via discovery, that legit question morphs into a stupid question.
I want to to see CM punk to wrestle to the WWE again
AEW*
You got your wish
I think at this point like he's saying he doesn't "love" it anymore just stay gone man i for one if 'm wwe I'm not even begging him.Just work on the talent you have there now and let the man be.
I commend CM Punk for walking away from pro wrestling and choosing his health and life over it. Just think of all the pro wrestlers that died prematurely that if they had walked away might still be alive today. The biggest example is Eddie Guerrero. WWE kept him on the road and between that and him gaining so much muscle weakened his heart. CM Punk did what was right for himself and very few stand up for themselves like that.
he will crawl back to WWE rofl if they even want him back
@@godking5583 I mean going back to WWE later doesn't change his valid point
@@JCGaming13 Punk's a sell out. He's probably dying inside right now that he had to crawl back to the WWE cause he's broke and that the number 2 wrestling company wants nothing to do with him lmao
@@godking5583 No, you just don't like the guy. A big part of me wishes he was in AEW but Stevie Wonder could see how happy he is rn lmao
@@JCGaming13 You should see how happy he was during his first months in AEW. Listen bro, I don't even like AEW. I'm a WWE fan. I just don't think keeping this cancer is worth it unless he's gonna be putting over Dom lol.
I miss punk wrestling I really do he was amazing at it and I really want him to wrestle again but if it’s something he doesn’t love or just can’t do that’s fine I get it plus wwe fucked him over and just all that crap but if he ever does I will always watch no matter what in the end he has my support
Him working on the other side of WWE is good for him
Fox will treat him right
I would Love to see Punk go to Nxt
I thought he was fired on his wedding day?
He left and didn't come back, WWE sent the papers (to say he was fired) so that they arrived to him on his wedding day, but he already walked out a month or 2 before that.
He walked out in January and they officially fired him on his wedding day in June or July. Then kept using his likeness to promote the 2K game all the way to November
@El Gusanillo Del Juego and then they tired to rehire him on this honeymoon he didnt want to
I think that was just a storyline cause may be punk wants to do with ufc so he want something storyline for his return
He would’ve died if he didn’t leave so no matter what, it’s good he left
Buttercup III how would you know he had a good time and a bad time
@@kaitidc5452 *That good time slowly became a long and exhausting bad time to where his health was in jeopardy. Are you new to this whole thing?*
@@eastwaters4082 Why do you respond *like this*
SteakTheGuy Fr the guys acting like he knows CM Punk
@@almightyfonics lol
I completely agree with CM Punk. The phrase "For the boys" was only created for the ones who benefit from it. If it comes to the boys and your bag chances are you will probably choose the bag cause you'll think about your wife and kids first
Who’s here after his return to wwe 😂😂😂
AEW would be a perfect FIT! for cm punk you write your own promos and they don't work you to death
Is this the same host who freaked out about not getting invited to Galaxy’s Edge by Disney?
how dumb is she
Wait what? He or she?
al112v5 the dude
Jhern51 yeah thats him
He was backstage at raw last Monday in his hometown of Chicago
AND NOW ITS CLEAR CMM PUNK IS COMING BACK TO WWE❤❤ IT S HAPPENING AND THE MANAGMENT LOOKS TO BE HAPPY THEY ARE TEASIN IT SO MUCH FOR 3 WEEKS
Cm punk 🤘 🤘
If he worked behind the scenes or something in aew
The union thing and the way that wrestlers won't actually do something together for the betterment of everyone including the future generations is insane to me. I've never seen so many people lacking the backbone to stick up for themselves and how they're treated.
Cm Punk - Never ever never ever ever !
Punk needs to smoke a joint
It sounds like punk wants to come back
But he’s afraid it’s going to happe. Again
Punk being sick and working hurt
Maybe things will be different this time
Punk is annoying, if he wants to come back then he should tell people. Why do interviews and talk aboit wwe if you never want to go back? He needs to move on, i dont know about u but im happy he left.
Lmao, he literally said he wasnt interested, and then you came here saying "it sounds like punk wants to come back" , seriously???.....
I think if wwe wants him, they’ll want him to wrestle, and he doesn’t want to do that. Also, he might be doing these interviews and stuff because these people are asking him for interviews
@@intj_5398 cm punk doesn't choose to talk about wwe, others ask him about that. You're honestly telling me you wouldn't mention wwe if you were talking to him?
I see Punk's point they ran his body down to the ground and didn't care.
Is that the ShmoesKnow guy
Yup
I fucking miss him..👀
Collider live 💯 elite now
Roxy please give up!!! for everybody's sake!
Roxy, listen more.
It’s amazing how people can still listen to punks wwe firing story and still fault him for it
This guy quit due to not winning rumble. Imagine that. At the of the day Rollins is a better worker than him
@@SandMan1998 When has he ever said that? He said over and over again, Since 2014, That he left because they wouldn't give him time off for his injuries and staph infection. He made such a big fuss over it that he got sued over it(Which he won) Like, do you not remember this?
Punk would have been a midcarder during golden or attitude eras
Dam.. It woulda been cool to see punk vs lesnar or punk vs rollins or punk vs fiend.. shit even a good one between punk and cena again would be good
Tbh we don't need to see another Punk vs Cena or Lesnar match again
Rather see PUNK VS COLE, or PUNK VS JOHNNY WRESTLING, even AJ STYLES VS PUNK, and yes even OMEGA VS PUNK, CODY V PUNK AND JERICHO V PUNK IN AEW
Punk and kofi would be great
He left years ago , can’t see why he can’t come back to wwe and squash the beef he had with WWE ,
FIRE2H4L Reactor He’s squashed the beef with WWE, the problem he has is with wrestling. He keeps hearing about how much better it is now for the wrestlers, but he’s traumatized. “I won’t ever put myself in a position where I can get hurt again.” He never wants to reach that emotional low again. He’s afraid that if he wrestles again long term he won’t be able to get out with his life intact.
He loves his life now, and he doesn’t want to go back to the place where he got beat up, hurt, sick, and where after all that, no one wanted to make sure he was okay.
Cm punk was one of the best and hardest working wrestlers back in 2014. The wwe treated him like shit.
4:52 “get a beer” nigga he’s straight edge!
When he said "well I disagree let's go get a beer" cm punk was probably like "i mean yes... But no."
This is basically him saying for once and for all, he won't be returning back to wrestling. Oh well.
irdc anymore
We have Jon Moxley, honestly put Moxley in a ring with CM Punk and Mox would dominate him
I am still a Punk fan but Mox is better
@@paullevine2834 True and same here. I'm just so tired of everybody saying he is returning to the ring lol
@Jeff Pryce Yeah but Ambrose was under Vince control and had zero creative freedom, if you watch his NJPW matches, i think they pretty damn great, he has a much different moveset compared to what he was using in WWE
You barely see any top wrestling in WWE nowadays, he is a different guy now, for me I prefer Mox in terms of character and wrestling compared to Punk but i get your point
CM Punk was definitely depressed for a while in wwe, certainly for a bit after he left. I reckon depression was one of the reasons he left.
Well yeah
It is abundantly clear by the way Punk has softened is stance and toned down the criticism of the company that he is working on the big return. Last year at this time he would've buried the company in a much more serious fashion.
Oh, it was a big return. You almost had it though.
Point blank vince got away with alot of people dying
I will NEVER forgive Vince McMahon and WWE for the way they nearly KILLED CM Punk. Bastards. I hope they rot in hell.
If Punk returns to WWE hes gonna do a Chris Benoit. Im pretty sure Bam Margera is gonna do a Chris Benoit.
Think this is y they got fury on board
Marvel CM Punk Wolverine
the last fans that are left.. we wanna see you cm punk at AEW if it means to have you back for a small period :(
He doesn't want to ! Stop being selfish ..
Be a fan ! True fan
Calling me selfish? Fk out of here dude..
hes done hes a crybaby
@@martinolsen007 He literally said that he does not want to wrestle anymore because he doesn't want to put himself in the situation where he can be harmed as badly as he did previously. You saying "but I am a fan and I want you to put yourself in that position so I can enjoy" is, indeed, selfish.
@@MinimiMax even if he says he doesnt want to, doesnt mean he never will.. big difference
You guys realize it's been literally 7 to 8 years since he left. He wont be the same cm punk you have in your memory. Even the rock was completely different when he came back. Punk will be no different. And I like dude. But it's been almost 8 years man
5 years
He left after Royal Rumble 2014.
Mara Dala its not even 6 years yet bud quit talking outta your ass
funny, go see the interview, Cody said Punk made them look like fools in some of his tweets.. also he's talking about AEW because they talk about "the boys", the boys run the business not one person, there is no such thing as the boys, it's not that simple in wrestling like everybody thinks
I think that’s why Punk has no interest in AEW. They’re trying to promote AEW and a show “run by the boys, for the boys.” That couldn’t be further from the truth.
They don’t like each other because the guys at the elite and Cm punk all have huge ass egos.
I knew it was real bad when i started my youtube tribute that i started and he was my first project. I got so many good feed back and he blocked me for sending it to him.
At that point i knew the man was really miserable with wrestling and more important the wwe in general. Its sad.
Bret hart once reference Vince seeing wrestlers like circus animals. Or someone saying he has a toy to play with and once your no use he toss ya aside. Its actually sad.
Bruh he’s done wrestling(WWE) he got fucked in so many ways, I wouldn’t wanna go back either.
Punk can come up with any kind of rationalization he wants, he should've communicated things clearly and leave profesuonally. He should've straight up told Vince that he needs time off, that he is badly burned out and he will help them writing him off the show, I'm sure Vince would oblige.
But Punk is still angry because WWE didn't care about him the way he wanted. Newsflash Punk - no one will take care of you but you. Other people have their own agendas, you need to learn this and work with this.
Did you watch the interview? He said multiple times that he wanted time off and WWE ignored him
He got harmed a lot in WWE. But also in the UFC.
CM could give NJPW a shot
She is so cringe. it must be like getting interviewed by a fifth grader.
She is just trying to be relevant 😂

bc wow WWE yeah would say WWE is a cut throat company, I surely won't work for them.
3:33 HE EXPLAINED HOW HE KNEW WHEN HE STARTED THE STORY WHY DON'T YOU LISTEN L;ADY!!!! Sorry...
