    Now that we know how long punk was unhappy for, I reckon those sideburns were on purpose just to annoy us.

    So CM Punk had fun this weekend:

    He's some pain in the hole.

    He's straight edge and all but he looks high as a kite in that last gif.

    Yeah, happiness and escape from idiots will do that for you.

    It's nice to see Punk happy. Actually happy, not "sing Cena happy birthday at the end of RAW pretend-happy"!

    The lat one reminded me of the lad who does Eamon Dunphy in Apres Match

    If Punk comes back in a few years and walks into a main event spot would that not make him a bit of a hypocrite? Not trolling or trying to p!ss anyone off, but what's the difference between him doing it and Batista doing it?

    And before anyone says he's a better wrestler, more over with the fans, yada yada yada, that's details that aren't relevant to the point.

    Didn't doing a 180 in his view on part timers when he got the opportunity to headline the Rumble with The Rock already show how much of a hypocrite he is?

    I love the nerdist podcast so it's Aleta's great to see wrestlers on from time to time. Great interview with some funny moments (mainly if you lean towards geek/need culture like I do)

    So behind on Podcasts but the word is that it is great.

    It's very good. Punk comes off as nice but fairly quiet. He lets Jonah and Matt riff a little bit more and only speaks when he's spoken to or when he's something really good to interject with. He tells a great story about when he ran the Chicago marathon which had me in stitches. Also his back and forth with Matt over the items for sale at comiccon is funny too.

    rovert posted this video in another thread. Ariel Helwani interviewing Paul Heyman
    http://www.mmafighting.com/mma-hour#...1FigRXQHXyhop0
    He talks abit about Punk around the 1hr 34min mark.

    Ariel: Do you think Punk ever comes back?

    Heyman: I think CM Punks mindset right now is never to come back and I think there mindset is we never want him back

    People are still showing solidarity:

    Very tired of this story.

    He's done working there, and with wrestling in general.

    They're done with him.

    Can people not just leave all parties in peace?

    I wonder do people still think it's a work ;)

    Nope, I just think he's having an extended break,




    Alongside Tupac & Elvis

    :D

    He'll be back one day. In the meantime, this story is pretty much dead.

    It will blow up big time if the rumours of legal action come to fruition.

    They wont. WWE needs him more than he needs them, and they both know it. Neither side will risk a future return. If action was going to be taken, he wouldnt have been allowed sit at home for six months.

    If Punk refused to wrestle, there's not much WWE could have done other than take legal action. Not as if they can force him down to the ring and force him to work really.

    Not that I think there's a problem like that, mind. Just sayin'....

    Thats my point. If action was to be taken, it would have happened when he was refusing to go to work.

    I don't know the particulars of his contract and fwiw it was Meltzer who started the rumour but if Punk broke the contract WWE could sue for damages.

    People still think Owen's and Eddie's deaths are a work. So its a guarantee that people will still think this is a work.

    I would bet every penny I have that no legal action takes place.

    He has not spoken of them negatively, nor vice versa. Clearly, a settlement of some sort was agreed before he left.

    I don't disagree on the legal action thing because it would likely reflect bad on WWE. Not sure they made any agreement however. Maybe but we don't know.

    He got a MASSIVE pop at the video game reveal:

    Am I mistaken, or is that not 2011/2012 Punk?

    So it looks like Punk is taking legal action against the WWE for royalties and image rights for using his likeness on WWE 2k15.

    This could get fun! :D
