I remember a poll on RAW 1000 in 2012, people at that time were more excited to see CM Punk fighting The Rock than having to see the Rock's once in a lifetime rematch against the number one guy at that time, John Cena.
That's how over CM Punk was at that time, and how much he deserved to participate the Wrestlemania 29 main event.
Punk deserves to be a part of Wrestlemania main event at least once before he ends his career.
💯
Since it's cena/rock II put Taker vs Punk at end! Duh wwe. And I bet cm does not walk from wwe the nxt year!! Maybe later on but we'd still have an awesome cm punk for wm 30, 31. Initial I thought these planned matches 4 wm 30 were jokes maybe early plans but not THY PLAN! Punk vs Kane? Boring big kane for cmp at any wm? OK for wm 24 or 25 not wm XXX. And Bryan vs Sheamus? Again? We had that at wm 27, wm 28. Orton vs Batista? I get that it's big as Batista returned yet been there done that with rko vs Batista & evolution in 2004. And Batista vs Evolution in 2005, Batista vs Rko in singles ppv matches 2009?
I don't care if he has a world title match, I don't care if he wins or loses, I care only about Punk getting a main event match at Wrestlemania.
Yes. But not that so called Saturday night "main event". Then many will say that don't count. Lol. And we & cmp get 2 wm main event milestones to finish! No!
00:05 Simon every time you say "do do" I giggle to myself and always say I should comment about it. Someone needs to make a Do Do Counter.. Lol!
I'm so glad someone else gets a kick out of this. I've posted a few comments over the years about it. I was giddy to see him acknowledge it, regardless of whether it was my comments or not. Counter! Counter! Counter!😂
They should give Punk his Mania main event, especially now that there are 2 nights to pick from.
Why "should" they?
@@khesipresents1885because he deserved it years ago and they owe it to him by treating him like crap and making him sick in 2013/14. Anything else?
@@nalday2534 Jeff,Rey and many others never did but aren t complaining..plus punk is old AF and injury prone..the same Brock and Goldberg y'all complain about bloody hypocrites .are more fit then punk
@@khesipresents1885 I don't give a single f about corporate shills. He's injury prone because of wwe constantly putting him on house shows and not giving him leaves. They owe it to him and Hunter knows it and He's gonna make that main event happen because he's a far better businessman than you will ever be
@@nalday2534 Wrestling is not a meritocracy, so "Punk deserved it years ago" is not a good reason. He probably would've got it last year if he wasn't so fragile, but the fact that he gets gassed/injured easily is precisely why he shouldn't be in the main event on the biggest stage. He'd only embarrass himself and the company. WWE owes Punk nothing, especially after the time he spent dogging WWE.
YES!!! CM Punk finally win the Royal Rumble 2025 and get THE Main Event of Wrestlemania 41 and go 1vs1 with Cody for the WWE Championship
Let's see how long he can go without getting injured first.
He will be fine
@@lexkanyima2195will he though? I don’t want him to get injured again, but he’s got a bad streak with tearing triceps
@@BobBobBobBobBob but he will be back as strong than ever.
When punk screws over drew at mitb, Andrade should win and idk when Charlotte comes back but they should become a duo on tv
CM Punk - Locker room leader.
Good joke
@@bluelantern5241He meant in AEW and you accept doggy.
I just realized Dom's cow vest is a rip off of the rocks 😂😂😂
Wow
Royal Rum Bull 2025 Reigns, Rey vs Rock, Dom (the real Dom not that bald Vin diesel). (*And Vin Diesel is not the real "Diesel" thats Kevin Nash)
CM Punk doesn't need another title for the remainder of his career. He is such a compelling personality, a title belt on his waist just seems like jewelry. I'm not opposed to Punk having a belt, I'm just saying it's not a game changer regarding his overpowering influence and popularity. In a strange way, he's the modern Undertaker.
I agree I don't think he needs and although I wouldn't be opposed to him winning it he definitely needs to fight for it because I'd love to see him get his main event maybe you can have drew win it and take there feud to mania depending when he first gets cleared or maybe you go punk seph route either way I don't mind if he wins or loses I just think he deserves a main event
This “he doesn’t need it” shit needs to end. You’re not a booker, you’re a viewer.
And any sane viewer wants the the premium belt associated with the biggest stars in the show. Punk, Rock and Roman are on their own level. It makes sense to want the title alongside stars like that.
@@Jellybob69punk and rock are old ....Roman has been pushed to death ... A new guy or new few guys at the top won't hurt ...wwe makes billions anyway no matter if they push Akira tozawa
@@khesipresents1885spoken like a true child 😂
@@Jellybob69the point of the belts is to promote new stars you hot shot it onto a big name to push popularity. Otherwise you use them to try and MAKE other huge stars so that when the ones who “don’t need the titles” are gone, you still have eyes on the product.
Haha yes!! Finally Simon is aware of his "do do!" I've been asking for a do do counter for years, so here's hoping we get it!
A Royal Rumble win from CM Punk would be dope he can redeem himself at the Rumble by winning it all he walked out after the Rumble and came back to get injured at the Rumble he needs to break that curse
Explain why Brock doesn't need to win mitb but punk needing to win royal rumble in 2025 of. All years
@khesipresents1885 What does Brock have to do with my opinion? I'm not debating with you either agree or don't
@@MattyIce316 I'm saying y'all complain if they push Brock an Goldberg..but have no issue when they push an aging punk.....the hypocrisy is what I'm highlighting
@@khesipresents1885 Who is y'all? you have no idea what my stance is about anything you are taking what other people said and projecting it onto me because you got angry about my opinion I can't wait for Brock to return maybe if you slowed down and actually listened to people and educated yourself you wouldn't be so angry and you would have more friends
@@khesipresents1885He didn't even mention Brock and that pissed you off. I can say most of y'all are still mad at Punk calling out AEW for not being a sustainable business which is true lmao😂
CM Punk vs Seth Rollins for World title at WM 41 especially if Seth wins World title for the second time
CM Punk vs Drew McIntyre for the World Title would be so much better but of course even when it's obvious you all still wanna see him get pushed to the side.
No, it will be CM Punk vs Cody Rhodes in THE Main Event of Wrestlemania 41 for the WWE Championship, and it doesn't matter if you like it or not, you have to acknowledge it!
Some good points. But the Dude is old and injury prone. To quote Punk himself. "You gotta take that fantasy booking somewhere else".
Yeah a great feud match main event will do just fine. Not everything has to be about the title. We had Austin vs Owens 2 years ago and it was alot of fun
Man, I really want a wrestlemania overseas. Purely for how hyped the crowds would be. Indy better bring their A game
Honestly I just hope he'll be able to make at least one good match against Drew before another injury.
PS: Fan of Punk since 2009.
Simon thank you for making these videos!
Some how if they could find a way to book punk vs rock @ mania would be amazing. The promo work leading up to their match would be cinema!!
You mentioned about having the Rock win the championship and maybe facing Roman Reigns a second time you have to remember the rumors about John Cena having another major push before he pretty much retires he could always have Cena defeat the Rock and tie the Nature Boy Ric Flair is World Championship reign
No issue. If, the feud is designed to put over Cody at the end. Which it would. It's a long way away though. We are only slowly gearing towards a Randy Orton turn. But make no mistake, Punk has three main feuds in this last run of his, Drew, Seth and Cody. You can put Roman in there but that will be one off.
It’s hilarious that you think Punk is making it through another three feuds.
He can’t string three matches together without requiring
surgery.
Yeah, he should win so that he gets injured during the match and has to give it up the next day. Or .... He really shouldn't win the title because he is not a top wrestler anymore, but should be a Paul Heyman type character.
Bold of anyone to assume he will be healthy come Wm 41
The reason why... is that he shouldn't))) in fact, best case scenario - he loses the matcch for it to Drew - best closure in this situation as it seems at the moment
I want to see CM PUNK win too but the bro can barley move. Ain't nobody mentions that. Bro was just a slab of meat trying to get through the royal rumble. He's basically Randy Orton right now and can't even move in the ring. Should be retired.
He should be retired..but the cheque they cut is too big and they refuse to build new young stars
Yeah he's going to get himself fired again before wrestlemaina.
😂😂no you just sound stupid lol
Then again Tiny Con will rehire Punk and pay him way more than the top jobbers like the Cucamonga kids and Okaku from Okaka🤣
If this idea doesn't end with Drew McIntyre cashing in on him as soon as he wins that title, I don't want it.
That's carma am all for it
I just hope he's healthy or still with the company by then
I can't deny that Punk brings a certain next level energy to everything he is in. His work with MJF is some of the best AEW has ever done. Granted, I think he is a bit of doo doo head but he is talented. However, I'm more concerned about his longevity. It seems he can't go 5 minutes without picking up an injury that shelves him for 6 months. I don't think WWE or Mr 3xH can comfortably book long term stories around him because of the risk of him getting injured. Sure freak accidents happen and it could happen to anyone but yeah... it seems to happen to him a lot.
I think you're on the money here. I rather see drew go over punk. Also calling him a doo doo head made my day
3xh.............. HHH is literally easier. Lmao. Marks bro, marks
Moxley called it.
Fragile mind, fragile ego, fragile body.
I wouldn’t be surprised in the least if fragile Phil was gone from the industry again before next spring.
@@craigkemerySkewer crown headed Mox was what you meant.
@@seandath7210 okay
I love your theory but you're overlooking one big thing, the long term story that has been told, Gunter is going to win it because the only person who stopped him was Cody for the past two years, and when he wins he'll challenge Cody and take the championship at WrestleMania
Cm punk winning the title at wrestlemania and hold onto it for a while he’s one of the goat Cm Punk Cm Punk
Needs to be
YES
@@DaeD_PolishPower punk is the man
I think they should give a title to Kevin Owens (any title) 🤔
Except the ic title. There's a story kevin doesn't want to hold the ic title more than twice as homage to someone
@@Tuturial464 agreed. hit they can make him earn it with a decent storyline.
If it works, go for it
Cm Punk dont need the title his run right now is about the money and right now the money is on Punk And Drew every other feud is a backseat to fans who have been watching.
YEEESS HE NEEED! He need to WIN THE ROYAL RUMBLE, and get THE Main Event of Wrestlemania
Roman vs Rock is locked for wrestlemania 41
If I were booking it, and they want to do Cody vs Rock at Wrestlemania, I'd have Rock screw Cody out of the title at the Royal Rumble against whomever you decide to give the title shot. Then Cody has a reason to not just jump back into the Rumble, and if he doesn't have the title, it is possible for Rock to actually win the match.
Rock is in the hall of fame already boss
Cm jus gone get hurt nd hold the belt longer then Roman
I love you Mr Miller
Fragile Phil has had to have an injury surgically repaired every single year since returning to the industry. There’s a better than likely chance that he’ll be injured once again by April.
Or just retired after some kind of tantrum or falling out.
Says who, this dumb nerdy mark that hasn't taken a bump in the ring.
Fragile? Gtfo with that skewer crown headed garbage Mox shite.
Punk shouldnt be any where near a title for the rest of his WWE career. Being old n injury prone its just a bad idea.
Punk doesn't need a title . Looking at your comment section some people would get mad about it . And I want them to get mad . So please please please put the belt on him
Punk needs to turn heel for that just to spite the nerdy marks.
Yes he need shut up
Top shelf
He will just get hurt again anyway lmao, I agree with others, give someone else a title shot besides the same 4 or 5 people..
Punk doesn't need to win anything. He is 45 years old. That's taking away from the younger talents. That's doing exactly what AEW did when he got there. Quickly putting him into the main event and handling him the world title. When it could've gone to the younger talents. Then on top of that, all he does is get injured.
I'm not advocating for Punk to be champion, but that is kind of an L take.
You're saying WWE should give younger talent the World title to elevate them, but that's not how it works, because all that actually does is de-elevate the prestige of the World title.
Ever here the phrase 'the title doesn't make the talent, the talent makes the title.'
Younger wrestlers need to prove they are worthy of the title, not the other way around.
@@hobnobbob8006I think both of you can be right here. I think using punk (assuming he actually wrestles without injury) to elevate younger talent to a title push can work
@@hobnobbob8006why didn't the title get devalued when they still pushed young guys in the attitude era,ruthless aggression era. Oh but I know the excuse." Young talent was better back then"
@@khesipresents1885
Firstly, the world title was de-valued heavily during the ruthless aggression era. Firsly by having two champions which was just stupid, secondly by giving it to 'superstars' such as the Great Khali, and thirdly they started having the ridiculously short title reigns where a wrestler would lose it the night after they won it.
Secondly, if you actually read my comment, I said that young wrestlers need to prove they are worthy of the World title by being over. Steve Austin was over before he won the title and so was the Rock. So when they finally won the World title, it felt prestigous because the wrestler holding it was a top guy. But when they put the title on somebody who isn't over (such as Damien Priest) thinking it will elevate them, all it does is de-elevates the world championship.
YES! CM Punk my favorite ever. Put the title on him!
Cm punk should absolutely win and in turn lead to cody turning homelander and run the wwe
I forgot CM Punk is back
I think the idea is a very good one but I think they’ll do it for Mania 42, Cody vs Punk and Roman vs Rock is as big as it gets for your two main events
Why do part timers still get to flood main events even in this so. Called "new era"?
Ha! You think Fragile Phil is still going to be around by Mania 42?! 😂
@@khesipresents1885 because NONE of the current roster or new guys can draw YET? 😂👍 Look at the numbers. NONE of them can draw numbers like Rock , Reigns or Punk .
@@SS-tg8lf well guys treated like midcarders while they shove the same guys at the top will never draw ofcourse.. obviously that's common sense ..
@@khesipresents1885 NOT TRUE. They gotta show that they can draw in the midcard BEFORE being moved up to the mainevent scene. That's how promotions work in any company. Very FEW people have what it takes to go straight from debut to the mainevent. NONE of these new guys have shown that they can draw in the midcard let alone the mainevent YET. That's why WWE is holding on to the part timers .
No no no just no. Anyone remember when he told Cena he wasn't the red Sox anymore he was the Yankees. Punk is in that place now. He can't keep up.
He should win do to all the hard work hes done wrestling this year.. so many classic matches since his WWE return .. one person who 1000 percent agrees with this title is CM " Hogan" Punk
Hogan had a short title run in 02 so can't Punk lol. The rest of nerdy marks in comments weren't even born yet to see a pattern of how many veterans had title runs in their mid 40's.
At some point, Punk will have to wrestle. I'm not sure if he can do that part of the job anymore, unfortunately. If he does end up getting a title, the reign might need to be short, and that's fine.
No one cares about Punk winning a title ever again but many would be happy to see him main event Mania and that would be a proper send off.
@seandath7210 💯 I think people are way past those days of wanting to see him with the title now. That send-off would be nice
I wouldn’t mind him competing for a title, but (and I very much well be in the minority) but I don’t need to see glass cannon Phil win another title. He’s lost his magic for me.
Glass cannon Phil 😂😂
CM Punk vs Cody Rhodes at WM41. Punk loses, Rhodes cheats and turns heel. Now, Punk chases for a year, leading to a rematch at WM42, in…CHICAGOOO!!!!!
YEEEAAHHH
Punk should never be near a main or top championship again.
Im down with that
Big fan of cody but prefer punk more
Simon give my Kenyan self an up 😩😂
Punk should've win the 2013 Royal Rumble
Punk vs. Rhodes?
Doesnt seem worht it
2014* and Yes Punk will Win the 2025 Royal Rumble and get THE Main Event of Wrestlemania 41 vs Cody
CM Punk should have defeated Roman Reigns
I'd prefer Punk vs Rollins for that mania...For the WHC as well.
I'd prefer punk to retire
@@khesipresents1885....after getting his main event at Mania I agree with you. Good doggy
How do you fix it? BTF out of Phil Brooks.
No. Every time since his return he holds a world title, he gets hurt. Couldn’t even do a royal rumble which is like the most bare minimum wrestling match without getting hurt. Just keep him in good feuds and stories.
Been saying this
He can merge the wwe title with his REAL AEW WORLD’s champion
Punk is the best tweener
Punk isn’t the best anything
9:47 c.m. punk doesn't deserve a shot at the title. It seems he gets butt kicked and injured as of late. I don't feel he just be given a title shot . He should have to work his way up the ladder again just like the rest of the hard working wrestlers. I am a wrestling fan for 50 years. I still don't believe in hand outs but enough is enough already
🧂
This was a very difficult video to sit through lol
You obviously making a poor business decision by putting a title on someone who’s injury prone
Cope hard
Shut up
Rock vs Roman>>>>>> cody vs anyone
❤❤❤
Honestly punk only needs main event of mania thats all the title involved or not
He needed to do that in his prime..now it's time for new guys ..wasn't he complaining about that in 2011 that rock part time was pushed over his full time self
@@khesipresents1885 except he is full time technically he just got hurt the fact we've seen him while he's hurt means he's full time and he's still top 5 most popular in the company I don't see the Rock around rn or Roman that's part time only when big PLEs happen and Punks done his time he deserves that 1st night main event against Seth or Drew
@@yoljuma4431 Brock, Goldberg were top 5 popular too yet y'all hated them but old Phil is fine ... y'all got time for games I see
@@yoljuma4431 Brock, Goldberg were top 5 popular too yet y'all hated them but old Phil is fine ... y'all got time for games I see
@@khesipresents1885 again Brock and Goldberg didn't show up they were part time only for Saudi shows or big PLEs Phils just controversial that's why everyone hates on him you either hate him or like him but you can't say he doesn't deserve it he's a better wrestler than goldberg ever was even at his age now. Punk also has some of the best wrestling storylines of all time summer of punk (both of them), hardy feud, straight edge society, Mjf and him, this drew feud, what feuds did Goldberg and brock have that were up to those
....isn't he Injury Prone? Why doesn't he get the same Diet and workout regiment as Rey Mysterio and Edge? They are about the same age
Because Rey and Edge are athletes
Edge is older than Punk, but somehow, Edge can wrestle circles around him.
You´re a bit bad at the predictions game, all due respect.
I just want Solo to say..
“I did it for The Rock”
😏
As cool as it'd be he's really injury prone
For a positive person i cant understand why you support or like a toxic individual. It baffles me.
Because he doesn't treat internet gossip like gospel
Nah. CM Punk is like the Undertaker. They don’t need to be the champion to draw a crowd or have a good story.
Shut up
Can Punk stay fit? Lol
Damm you Simon miller ruined another video.
Because he gave up his spot of Cody
YOU WANNA KNOW WHY?!
🤦♂️🙆♂️
HERE'S WHYYYY!!!!
Respectfully disagree. The CM Punk feud with Drew is better because the title isn't on either one of them. At Wrestlemania, I'd love to see Roman vs Solo to dismantle the Bloodline once and for all, Drew vs Punk in some kind of no-disqualification match, Cody Rhodes vs Randy Orton for the Smackdown title, and a triple threat match Seth Rollins vs Damien Priest vs Finn Balor (c) for the Raw title (in this scenario, Balor wins it off of Priest sometime between MitB and Wrestlemania)
Yeah let's put the belt on someone who just comes back and always injured... who else made this mistake. Oh yeah aew and how did that turn out 🤨
To be fair, I don't think AEW knew how injury prone this man was. He had just gotten back into wrestling after 7 years off. Now I will say, they messed up by trying to give him another chance after the first injury. But he also brought an injury on himself by jumping into the crowd and breaking his foot. That wasn't AEWs fault. That was 100% on Punk.
@Morganj27 not just the injuries though. Why should he get the title when he hasn't even had a match yet when there's ppl in there who have worked blood sweat and tears week in and week out. Punks a little cry baby whenever he hasn't got the title he shouts down the microphone I am the best in the world give me the title. Its horseshit
@andyanderson516 I agree with you. It shouldn't happen. I hope it doesn't, but like you said, he will shout about how he deserves it and how great he is. I can see him getting hurt again and getting so pissed off about it that he will start taking it out on people he works with.
@Morganj27 yeah I hope he doesn't get injured again with drew and blame drew in real life. Only thing I will give him is he does look like he's been doing better training and stuff so maby that will help
@andyanderson516 Hopefully, he can. I'm not a fan of Punk once so ever, but i don't wish him another injury. Even though it's something I believe may happen again if he doesn't take care of himself. Only time will tell at this point.
The dude can't even stay healthy. Why would you give him the title? He can be a draw without the belt
Dude kept a storyline with Drew for over 6 months. Have you been living under Tiny Con?
No
Punk needs to retire.
No, he shouldn't. That's just ridiculous.
vince dead you ´re fired dead 0 dead 0 dead 0 dead 0 dead 0 dead
I personally hate this idea of a 2-day royal rumble. For me it ruins the mystique out of the RR. What's next, a 2-day money in the bank PLE??
Cm punk is another who should finish the story

Controversial US sports TV personality Stephen A Smith makes a lot of people feel a certain way, but one opinion he has I don’t feel anyone can argue:
Your best ability is your availability.
CM Punk personally & professionally has burned too many bridges. He’s older, always out injured (while still collecting checks) and even when he isn’t hurt, his ego is an ever persistent problem to deal with. If he’s not 100% happy he’s unreliable. You can’t build a solid locker room & long term story telling on that kind of track record. Build around the guys who have been there for years. Gunther is the most believable big bad they have & Priest should feel like a bigger star than he is.
WHY??? I WILL TELL YOU WHY!!!!!
Because if he don’t win, he Will cry about it !
He’ll find a reason to cry about it either way
