CM Punk - The Art of Wrestling Ep 226 w/ Colt Cabana 

😂😂😂

brilliant

Mindy bakery???

There’s no indication it would in this.

@@TIN_ENCH_DIG_BICKwhat he eats in the media scrun

This is gonna make for one amazing documentary

Ooohhh yes, a Netflix docuseries oh yes please

Online docus will be better after this wwe run haha

I never knew this episode existed. I grew out of wwe 15 years ago

Not only that, this podcast actually led to Punk coming back as a direct consequence of it. 1. Punk goes on this podcast and talks about his staph infection 2. Dr. Amann sues Punk and Cabana 3. Punk and Cabana have a falling out over that lawsuit 4. After Punk goes to AEW, the Elite blame him for Cabana's lack of success there 5. Punk goes off on them at the media scrum and they have a physical altercation 6. Punk is suspended 7. After his subsequent return, he has a second altercation and is let go, whereas he probably would not have been let go if it was the first time 8. He returns to WWE

Yeah nobody gave a shit about the second Rock Vs Cena match

That would've been a great main event plus it would've saved Rock from getting injured that night.

it should've been as such. It would've given punk a spot in the main event and they could've dropped the strap to Cena regardless. Rock winning the title was utterly pointless. Everyone knew he would just keep the title until mania with no matches to drop it to cena in their big 'rematch' which didn't live up to the first clash.

@Doom Guy i mean u watch the podcast righht Cm punk wouldve never lossed it He wouldve had a close to 500 day reign but i agree with what he said he gets elimanted by the rock and cena in 5 minutes then cena beats rock and theres it

100% the last few years might of been so different as well!

I know what you mean. It's because it's a highly entertaining listen. And because it confirms what we all know about the WWE and Vince.

Punk has a good speaking voice.

First night, gorilla presses me to table, f.cking misses the table. Tilt my pelvis and f.cks me up foooor weeks. Especially love that part he speaks ina fun way

@@PilloTheStaryeah it’s defiantly Punk, he’s a very articulate but also knows how to tell stories

I honestly haven’t been into wrestling since 2008 and I come to this a couple times a year as well. Just a great listen

Team punk is the best

Sueing punk

Punk literally betrayed him. Colt was right.

Peter Lundholm no, I just did a little research. You should too.

He's like Jim Cornette. He'll be fired by every wrestling promotion that's out there now lol.

ya but WWE didn't take CM Punk's advice when it comes to making the most of what you're given, Rusev Day. They did nothing.

Oh the better times

Rusev became one of my favorite wrestlers when he was able to make Rusev day(creative hot garbage crap) work and get it over.Getting that Rusev day crap alone said Rusev should have been pushed to the moon.

FirebrandOP yaaaassss! I had this on a loop when it debuted and it’s still awesome.

Yes Colt and punk are great talkers i'd like to hear more from these two.

Sept 2020. Listening to this again. Still perhaps the best episode of a podcast ever.

@@817RazorHell I don’t know the full story but Punk and Cabana were sued by Chris Amann (The doctor Punk talks about in this episode) for defamation. Punk and Cabana ended up winning the case in 2018 but later on Cabana sued Punk for apparently not paying his legal fees when Punk said he would.

💯💀⚡

Most people doesnt even understand this. But still hate him

Nacho jazz gl

The kids really love Punk.

Tiny kids aren’t the weirdos stalking him at the airport. Most wrestlers prefer the kids because they’re more respectful and genuinely happy to see them.

The man said it seven years ago and it still became true

Not only that, but look where he is vs where Triple H is now. Punk is living his best life in AEW and Triple H got his pet project stripped away from him by his father in-law because he didn't get the job done in the Wednesday Night War. The ultimate burial.

Yeah he’s doing such great shit right now…

@@OrochiFlamez CM Punk sucks in AEW... he moves like an old fart, his promos aren't nearly as good, he's a boring baby face ass kiss and isn't anything like the old punk. AEW viewer stats have dropped tremendously since his debut. He failed at boosting ratings as projected. This comes as no surprise as AEW is full of horrible story lines and small wimpy looking nerds..

@@aaleonthenus3055 so what do you enjoy?

How do you figure?

Not really

Facts me too!!!

@@MrMusick84 are you the man to shut me up?

Wrestlers and wrestling fans are a joke. And it's why the product sucks. Smfh fickle ass fanbase and the people in the business

WWE Tour schedule + lack of creative input + Schizophrenic writing staff = not great mental state

In retrospect, Punk just needed more time to recover.

I respectfully disagree. There are some cases of guys and girls leaving the company because they weren´t on a good state mentally and physically, Punk and Mox being the 2 most vocals about it. But what about the whole rest of the roster who are happy and in a good place mentally?! Of course there are this cases where WWE give some people burnout from wrestling, but there are the opposite cases, so can´t blame just on the company, but the company´s relationship with the wrestler. If the wrestler is happy them good for everyone, if the wrestler isn´t them the company will only burn their passion indirectly.

@@victorapolinario2766 The individual personalities/motivations of each wrestler also plays a role. As @Mr.555 stated, there are elements about WWE that are objectively problematic: hectic schedule, seemingly limited input from the wrestlers, too many cooks in the kitchen trying to please the head chef from Hell (Vince), not too mention the injuries that come with this line of work. Some people have temperaments and motivations that can handle the toxicity better than others. Listening to Punk's interview again, he tried his hardest to fight through all of the mounting negativity and micro-aggressions in order to "be a good soldier" and live up to old-school expectations (What Would Harley Race Do?). That's why I originally said that WWE will run their performers into the ground *if they are allowed to*. Punk eventually hit rock bottom (no pun intended) and desperately fled the situation that was making him miserable. Majority of the roster will probably never have to deal with the amount of issues that Punk had with WWE (fortunately), but there are several that will ultimately question if WWE is truly the "dream job" that they always wanted.

Also what people fail to realize: Moxley's state of mind in 2019 was sort of the same (and probably even less) as 2011 CM Punk who did end up resigning. Imagine the hell Moxley would be going through had he signed for 3 more years like Punk did. He would want to kill himself.

It is really too bad what transpired between Colt and Punk after that was rough to experience and observe.

It's to bad punk isn't a draw

@@StorageGuyGuns stop acting like a fucking buisnessman lmao mark

and now to this drama

And what a piece of shit Phil Brooks has shown himself to be

the game that still had punk in it despite him leaving as well. too much irony

CM Punk joining Logan paul's podcast or Pat mcafee show where he absolutely buries AEW will be beautiful🤣🤣🤣🤣

"They hurt my dog"

I’m thinking more of an Ace Steel CM Punk podcast Since Ace seems like the only man Punk trusts on this planet And the podcast can be called Chicago Made Steel I think it has the chance to be a really big hit

Yeah on Broken Skull Sessions with Stone Cold Steve Carell

Well turns out he’s under a lifetime nda with the Kahn man. He could get out of it but it will take a long long time and cost a lot of money

once a year? pshhh I listen to this every time I have a rough day at work which is pretty much every single facking week

And we finally did

….and a moment in wrestling history was born…

Crybaby

Yeah I think I've listened to it so regularly that I think I can repeat bits of it!

I highly doubt Punk had a screaming match with Vince. From what wrestlers have said about Punk, he wasn't a confrontational person at all. He would complain and talk shit to himself and behind peoples back and when someone would confront him and ask him what's up, Punk would deny everything and say hes fine.

@@billblaski9523 maybe out of respect. And maybe thats why imploded after keeping it in for so long

@@JKRowl err have you seen what's going on in the WWE?

Yes it is mh brother works for wwe and he says its fucking unbelievable how shity they treat the talent.

Here lol

True, but had Punk stayed, he'd still be the top guy in WWE to this day with countless "main events" at mania

@@SmithCommaBenjamin uh no, vince and triple H would never have allowed him to do that, they were stifling him from being anything more than a mid card when he was high card.

@@Valaso-Osalav How can you say that? He was a multiple time world champion, main eventing PPVs and only wrestling other main eventers and legends... CM Punk is not Dolph Ziggler, lol... Fact is, Punk is mark. And, he really thought the "last match" at mania means something... Like does anyone remember who the last match at WM18 was, after Hogan and Rock stole the show? WM25 and WM26 after Taker and Michaels? He was the top guy in the company and didn't even realize it, because he finally woke up to the sacrifice it takes to get that high, and felt like he was the only one whoever had to sacrifice to get there

@@SmithCommaBenjamin um no dude, your information and viewpoint no offense is obscured, Vince and triple H continuously fucked Cm punk over and his physical health was greatly afflicted by the treatment he was getting. you don't force your employee to sacrifice their physical and mental health for a job unless your doing architect work, engineering, or science, something important. Cm Punk was one of their top guys but triple h hated punk. YOu need to watch the podcast with punk and colt cabanna he tells you everything just about that wen ton. John cena never had to sacrifice as much as punk did to get where he was. John cena literally kissed vinces ass and that is the only reason he got anywhere. another thing you don't do to your employers is make them kiss your ass to get somewhere in your company, that is fucking greasy. YOu promote people based on merit, how much production they are able to bring to the company. Instead most employers promote people based on ass kissing favoritism and its stupid as fuck.

Mostly because they are totally real

While imhere. I'm pretty sure he meant "shoot interview" in the sense of trashing someone like how Cornette trashed Russo for example. Here Punk is simply retelling the events that led to his WWE departure.

While imhere. 😂😂😂😂

Tha Highlight Reel He definitely trashed the wwe doctors

Low key Pipebomb

with the start of AEW a whole bunch of wwe folk got up wrinklin their eyebrows atleast. luke harper is out the door as soon as he can, sasha seems like the same, karl anderson and luke gallows declined 6-figure contracts, bobby roode because look at how he's treated on the main roster,...

add Revival and Sasha coming up soon

I wonder who will be next.

Also, "I don't care about my royalty checks" his health was more important. Understand that you sometimes deserve what you're owed.

its crazy how badly they messed up his storylines, that were so easy to assemble that could make one a superstar. it comes off as if they did it on purpose.

@@dominic444 I think they booked him the way they did because if his momentum carried to WrestleMania his match would've felt bigger than Rock vs Cena no matter where it was on the card. Also because they just didn't like his look which is really dumb

@@thehat2243 even with them doing that his match against undertaker felt just a big as rock and cena

@@dylanjennings7376 I agree 100%

I wouldn’t say misused tbh. He was the longest reigning champ of modern history( Lesnar doesn’t count), and he got to speak his mind unlike any other superstar ever. He had a lot of freedom when it came to his promos and even had Vince ask him what he wanted to do next which I can assure is not something that is asked ever. Sure there were a lot of missed opportunities, and he got buried by partimers in the tailend of his career, but i wouldnt call it misused.

Rahim Ramli same with Paul Wight who they just call big show or show backstage

A lot of people call H Hunter backstage

Most people call him Hunter outside of the ring

Right, just like everyone does.

Ratings mean nothing to the WWE these days. It may even help them in the long run by providing an impetus to focus on their streaming service - which they can then use to make a buck off the indies. Triple Haytch has plans that involve less TV and more streaming. Ratings are becoming little more than a way for people to shit on the WWE product - which they should because it's shite.

ratings mean nothing when they get millions possibly billions from the Saudi Arabian gov. that killed a us journalist lol great company

How are the ratings for shows ran on the WWE Network measured? I wonder if shows ran on the Network cannibalize ratings from the Raws ran on USA?

Yeah Punk definitely had that overall "It" factor and has left a great big gaping hole in the roster that hasn't quite been replaced since he left imo.

Only searched this video cause of his AEW return

not a very good comparison. One is enjoyable, other is painful :D

@@AN-filmandmusic cause he never came back he was suspended and on the return date he never came back. He was waiting for a phone call. Any place I ever worked anyone who was suspended just came back the day suspension ended no phone call received

& taker would've still won the belt😂

I think it was at one point. Unfortunately it's become something that is void of all essence of what pro wrestling was supposed to be.

Listening to it this time the biggest thing I noticed is he really couldn’t stop talking about money and how it wasn’t enough what they paid him. Every issue kept going back to how things would effect his pay, seems like that was his biggest sticking point that he deserved to be paid more than anyone else there because he outsold cena, that and him never main eventing mania were probably all he cared about.

Punk was only voicing an opinion that a lot of people within AEW hold but are afraid to speak out loud. Ironically enough AEW turned him into the voice of their voiceless for a shoot.
