Older fans? When was this guy around? I haven't watched wrestling in years but I don't remember him in the attitude or raw eras.

Older fans of the PG era lol
This is true, it's how my body is. I can be fairly strong, but it never shows in lean muscle even with training and diet at ideal levels.

will his debut fight be on the same card as Mayweather/Pacquiao?
i think those two fights could really help the WWE become good again.

Being ripped means having low body fat. That or dehydrating yourself. Neither are generally recommended for long-term health.
Considering Punk has no history or training beyond these few months, virtually anyone would have the chance of beating him.
It's going to be amazing to see where UFC finds a fall guy.

Boxing and MMA don't share cards.
Oh right. It really has been a long time since i've watched wrestling lol.
He's only going to be fucking with dudes that look like this.
What could go wrong?
Honestly, looks like that have nothing to do with it. Muscle definition doesn't make you a stronger or better fighter. You would think UFC fans would know this by now.
Now after that, I still think he is going to get stomped on by fighters who have trained much longer.
The thing is even for a fighter that does zero strength training he looks bad.

Nah, he's going to be fighting at 170. Jacare is 185.
True. Poor choice of wording, as what I meant to say was that muscle doesn't show obviously on me, and never did for my dad either. It's not a big deal, but it is sort of a bummer.
Seriously. If looks mattered Cheick Kongo would have had the HW belt three times already.
The salt over CM Punk is both hilarious and sad. WWE marks can't believe Vince is anything but a saint and UFC nerds can't fathom that somebody would use their popularity to get a test run.
Hope nobody tells them what Michael Jordan did...

He first expected to fight at 185 but it recently changed

Nep-Nep no
Two factors:
- Genetics.
- He doesn't have a fight announced yet so he's not in the process of cutting weight. When you see these super ripped fighters with Superhero like bodies, it leads to people believing that they always look super ripped which is not the case at all.
Jon Jones pre weight cut right when his fight is announced looks like Punk, but then is Greek God mode 12 weeks later.
He's just some jobber who couldn't make it to the top in the WWE, even when there was only about three notable superstars on the entire roster, so he's now trying to prove himself elsewhere. It's pretty much a huge joke. Just enjoy it.
Oh my god... the salt is insane.
All you Vince marks know that his success will not impact your life one way or the other, right?
In a world where the guy on the left beat the guy on the right, I don't think it's fair to judge a fighter just on his physique.
This would make sense if the guy on the left had zero fight experience at the age of 36 and not a seasoned BJJ practitioner and IFL Chamption.
Firstly, I'm pretty sure I'm wealthier and more successful than him. Secondly, calm down and stop defending his honour. You're not his wife, okay? He's not going to see this. And I'm not a Vince mark, by the way. I'm a ROMAN REIGNS, Age of ROMAN, Conquering the BEAST, mark.
Balee dat.
Wasn't he the champ for a long time???

He looks exactly the same to me.

I doubt that CM Punk will be cutting a lot of weight to fight. It's a skill/discipline that you learn/tolerate from a young age. I imagine that starting your first cut when you're in your mid-30s would be hell on earth.
These videos sum up what he was all about.

hahaha I thought there were all "before" pictures and I was confused when he didn't change as I scrolled down
A small flickering candle just barely stands out in a wasteland of filth.
Lol that's even more reason for you not to care!
Whatever. I just don't get why people care one way or the other. I mean, it'd be cool if he's great, but if not, I'll continue on living.

that's what a fighter not on PEDs looks like. small Phil should cut 10% body fat and fight at 145.
It feels like they are pretty much seriously going at it each other. Was this Kayfabe or they just decided to pour their feelings out on stage?
edit: sorry for the double post.

I don't know but it sounds exactly the same as he talks about HHH in real life.

"You have shackled me, you have creatively stifled me, you have made this a very toxic environment, I no longer want to be here. It boggles my mind how Daniel Bryan has not figured into your plans to be in the main event of WrestleMania because this is his year. Just like two years ago when it was my year and I was white f----- hot, just like he is now, and what did you do? You fed me to this guy.' And I pointed to right at Hunter. Vince was like, 'This is the concussion talking. I can't believe you're saying any of this. It is a main event - you're wrestling Triple H."
"I politely turned to Hunter and I said, 'With all due respect, I do not need to wrestle you. You need to wrestle me. I do not want to wrestle you. I seriously resent you for not putting me over three years ago when you should have. That would have been best for business. But, you had to come in and squash it. And then I had to lose to Truth and Miz. It didn't make any business sense and now I'm in the position where I can tell you I don't have to nor do I want to wrestle you at WrestleMania. I don't care if I was supposed to win - which I was - I didn't want to give him the f------ privilege.
"I said a lot of s--- in there. I told them again - and Hunter was gritting his teeth, and he never liked me. Me and him in a room together - it was always negative vibes."
"Hunter told me I was in the main event because I wrestled The Undertaker," Punk continued. "I turned to him and said, 'Tell me I got paid the same amount of money as you, Brock, Cena, Rock, or whoever.' And once again, he had nothing to say. I was like, 'I'm out of here.' Vince, with tears in his eyes, went in for a hug, and it was like a reluctant patting on the back, then I looked at Hunter and he stuck his hand out and I shook his hand. I said, 'Goodbye,' and I walked out."

Basically, dude doesn't even look like an athlete. He could put on a dress shirt and sell insurance.

A preview of things to come
In a world where the guy on the left beat the guy on the right, I don't think it's fair to judge a fighter just on his physique.
And the guy on the left basically fights using only his right hand (though the legend says he is very good in ground/wrestling so nobody wants to go into that with him)
