The review says it that's only one minor recap. Punk also mentioned he had MRSA undiagnosed for three months.

Punk is doing a second show next week. Seemingly he doesn't need the money but fair balls putting this out for free and it not being a money grab.

Pentecost

Wow. Safe to say he definitely won't be back in WWE any time soon. It was only a matter of time before his side of it came out. AJ must actually be leaving very soon too as I'd say things will be pretty awkward for her after that.

Lord TSC

Jaysus, that's a depressing read. As a major Punk fan, it's massively disappointing to get the vibe he genuinely is done with it all, but the health things are scary...

ricero

He sounds very bitter but then again fair play to him for getting himself healthy.

Also ryback rulez !

The Ayatolla

I was always a big Punk fan, thought he was a bit of a sausage after the way things went from January on but knew there was a lot more to be told down the line.

If the above is true, then fair play to him for jacking it in.

Bridges burned is an understatement here though. He's gone for good.

Don't view this in complete isolation. Remember Alberto Del Rio happened only a few months ago.

Yeah it's two relatively big stars gone this year, both with a lot more to give for WWE if they just looked after them right.

A shame really. That's all that can be said about it at this stage.

Soft Falling Rain

Wow, surprised this hasn't caused an explosion in the iwc. Fair play to Punk, you have to look after your physical and mental health at the end of the day.

Surprised at the go he had at Ryback. I thought I read somewhere they were friends.

I think the big line there is that he never got his mania moment, in years too come when his body is rested and WWE come crawling I can see him turning up too get his main event mania spot!
Look at Shawn and Bret
Look at Sting
Look at Bruno Samartino
Time is a great healer!

Punk: "You either tell me you're dumb as **** or that you keep hurting me on purpose."

Ryback: "I'm dumb as ****"

Do people still think this is all a work? :pac:

A sad end to an otherwise stellar career. Hopefully years from now Punk will look back and not see it as a failure.

The cynical side in me would wonder if that very vocal side of the IWC who continually thrashed Punk as a crybaby might take a step back, read/listen to his side of the story and realise that he actually wasn't as big an ass about it as they said, and are now going to go a bit quiet....

Let's all remember CM Punk for what he achieved during his time in the WWE, and if he does decide to come back a few years down the line, i for one will be glad to see him back doing what he does best.

Moneymaker

Well, that's illuminating.

He looked bad but I'm stunned at how sick he really was.

Garseys

****ing hell, theres a lot of worrying stuff coming out of that. Especially regarding sheer medical neglegance with WWE's Doc.

Also he has a no compete clause with UFC as does Del Rio.

Respect Punk for coming out and clearing it up. Wish him all the success in the world and I hope he's happy.

gimmick

Scratch that, just appeared. Id imagine this will be Colts biggest ever download number.

A Rogue Hobo

I'm sorry but he just seems like a difficult person to be around and to work with. I'm happy he feels happier with himself and is healthy, but it just seems like a child wanting everything done his way and throwing tantrums when that doesn't happen.

Insect Overlord

A child isn't made go to work after surgery, or with a cyst in its back...

rovert

Remember this is next Monday:

Punk screwed Punk

Turtyturd

Have said it before but he will be back in the future doing the very thing he was supposedly against, coming in part time for a big pay day.

Injuries and treatment are shocking but could have easily put his foot down following surgery but was afraid of losing his spot.

Also think he's being harsh on himself saying he was a failure. Maybe in relation to where he thought he should be it could be considered one but he was the biggest thing in wrestling for a month, that's not to be sneezed at for a guy like him.

Is the episode uploaded anywhere in MP3? Colt's site is dead and I don't have itunes.

Stitcher has it

Stereomaniac

It is available to listen to through You Tube. Rovert posted the video earlier in the thread. Cheers.

Finally caught up with it. The jibe about dirtsheets was absurd since the basic points he talks at length about had been reported months ago ie. Mania main event, injuries, PPV/network pay, royalties etc.

The burial of the doctor is one of the great wrestling thrashings

I too would be interested in an MP3 version. Stitcher won't let me download it to stream as I want (hate that app anyhow).

ricero

I always thought himself and ryback were good pals. Just goes to show how green in the ring he was during his first push.
