The "Straight Edge Superstar" announced via "twitter" that he underwent an X-ray examination. Behind the scenes, it was announced that Punk is suffering from pain at the hip.
WWE removed Punk from the house shows this weekend as a precaution.
This was what he tweeted: "Getting an MRI for my birthday. I spoil myself! (This is not 'pro rasslin' newz, but will be reported as such.)"
Explains why he didn't wrestle on RAW.

Hopefully it's nothing serious. We don't want Punk missing any time when it looks like they may be on the cusp of pushing him hard as a RAW superstar now.
It's crazy to think how far CM Punk has come since even his first title run. Of course everyone on the board is NOW all about him when during the time of his 2nd MITB win everyone was saying how it was dumb, and his 1st title reign sucked, etc.

We got it, we love it!

Exactly, Chip. Punk's first World Heavyweight Championship reign DID suck, as the only thing I remember from it is CM Punk vs. Batista... ugh.
Punk winning two MITB matches back-to-back was a bit of an overkill. Especially being a face, for both of them. However, WWE turned him heel and gave him his Straight Edge Savior gimmick... which clearly freshened the guy's "character" immensely.

If Punk's first reign did suck, it was solely down to creative failings and poor booking.

And Punk not being any good on the mic, as a face. The man's first reign was much like Benoit's. His in-ring skills could only take him so far.

This is not 'pro rasslin' newz. Glad to see I'm not the only one who actually read that part.

Heel Punk wins, hes one of my favourite stars, and is just being himself now and its great. I sure hope he dosnt get injured/time off, I think he will be getting a push soon and possible matchs with Daniel Bryan, we cant miss that! D:

I noticed on Raw, Punk was walking rather gingerly down the ramp. Hope it isn't serious

Being heel or face has no bearing on Punk's mic skills, cos' Punk never cuts a bad promo. Punk barely got any mic time when he was face to begin with, and when he did get to speak, the writers gave him crap to work with. Nowadays it's different because Vince trusts him on the mic and pretty much allows him to write his own promos.

Not saying he isn't good as a face, just saying he's better on mic when he is heel.

To steal a line from Jerry Lawler, 'I hope noone kicks CM Punk in the butt, cause you'll get a concussion.' I'm messing. But yeah, I agree with Chip. Also, I wanna be the third person to point out, 'This is not pro rasslin' news.'

Hopefully it isn't serious. Wouldn't mind more Punk on commentary though while he heals up.

Saw a guy at Uni today wearing that Punk shirt, made me chuckle to myself.

Well that sucks but he can still build up Bryan v him without wrestling at least for a while.
I really don't want him to be injured since that match should be awesome.

am I the ONLY wrestling fan that just likes WWE wrestlers??? I don't like someone then start to dislike them because they are "boring" or because they dont' turn heel/face 25667 times in their career....
CM Punk has NEVER been boring to me. His first title reign was a success to me...why? Because it finally put CM Punk among the Elite. Now he is a former 3 time World Champion. A triple-crown Champion. He has won MITB twice. The man has accomplished SO MUCH in only 4 years time....and that's just the WWE
I've watched this guy wrestle in college gym's, in front of 500 people. I became a fan of his at my first ROH event, in the first match I ever saw him in...Punk had an awesome entrance (Miseria Cantare), put on a hell of a show (in a cage w/Raven), and I realized that this was a wrestler I was going to be a fan of.

I agree with you in once I start to like someone it takes something quite drastic to make me not like them. The only time I was bored of punk was between WM 25 and his heel turn.

It's a shame that at his age of 32 that Punk is as banged up as he is. Hopefully he'll be able to take some time off from in ring activity if needed and spend some more time behind the announce table. Dude's gold on commentary.
