That's a match I'd personally like to see. Both of them incorporate mma into their repetoire and I think it'd be a good match. I wouldn't mind if Punk cashed in his MITB for a shot at Undertaker's title. He probably wouldn't win, but who says the MITB has to actually go on and win the title? Would anybody be disappointed if this happened even though a good match would come out of it?

I would like to see this match as I really have no idea how it would work out.
To me, both seem like they would not be able to pull off a great match together, as I don't think Undertaker would make Punk look good unless it were like a Batista/Taker rivalry where some sort of chemistry could be developed after fighting each other so often.
I can picture a couple good spots in a Taker/Punk match, but both being faces just would not work in front of a live crowd, in my opinion. 'Taker will always be cheered more than Punk, thus resulting in boos for Punk which I don't think WWE is going for right now. Maybe they could play off Punk earning 'Taker's respect ala Jeff Hardy in 2002, but I could never buy Punk getting a legitimate victory over the Undertaker and it not coming across as an underdog win.
I pretty much feel the same way about Jericho/Taker, as I just don't think either would have good chemistry with one another based on their conflicting styles. However, I would like to see this match, too.

I'd be surprised if 'Taker wanted to work with Punk, tbh..

I think it would be a 2 min squash! Taker would destroy CM punk, they`re not even close to being in the same league!

Yeah but say for instance the match does go at least 10 minutes? Don't you think it would be good? I think Taker might like working with Punk because like I said, they both incorporate mma into their repetoire.

No.
Another reason why Punk won't "cash-in 'n' win", is he really going to be the guy to beat H or Taker?
Be serious.

I'd love to see this match. If he doesn't face HBK next year at Wrestlemania, it should be Punk.

If HBk and Edge can match up to Undertaker, then there's no reason why Cm Punk can't

Nah - that's just vettel.. No. Another reason why Punk won't "cash-in 'n' win", is he really going to be the guy to beat H or Taker? Be serious. Beating 'Taker would be pushing it - but I could see Punk beating HHH.. with the Pepsi plunge   .. |

Almost 3 if you count time in OVW. And that is all irrelevant, remember how long it took Lesnsr to accomplish and get where he did? |

= worst rivalry ever. Punks been working, what, a year? with WWE? He doesn't deserve it, Vince likes him because of his screaming fans... 2 years yes but exactly my sentiments, he hasn't been around long enough, he hasn't had any feuds to build him up, he hasn't done anything. Yet he has MITB. He is very talented, i have not said he can't be a top-line star but he needs to do alot more in his career before stepping up to the top in the WWE. To have Punk go over either Tripper or Taker would be a joke, he has not done enough to justify it, to have one feud and go over either of those two as a face. Lesnar is an exception to the rule, the guy was a beast, an awesome athlete and a very capable wrestler, it was the right way to go with him, bring him in, dominant for a few months, win KOTR, feud with RVD - a massive star back then, and then go on to receive the torch from The Rock, they played it correctly with him. CM Punk needs to work some feuds with the mid-card more, Jericho, MVP, Matt & Jeff, Umaga, get himself over with the worldwide audience not just the internet and then they can think about sticking him in with a chance of lifting a World Title and having matches with the main-eventers, otherwise i think some fans would reject it and it would fail and his star would start tilting. Look at Edge for example, it took him 6-7 years to reach the World Title and that was done through years of working his way through the card, starting out in the tag division, rivaling with fellow mid-card guys over mid-card titles - US/IC - and then having one-on-one feuds with guys like Christian, Booker T, Kurt, Benoit, Guerrero, Kane, Matt Hardy, Mick Foley and one of the keys to a World Championship reign nowadays Shawn Michaels then he was elevated to World Championship material and won it by cashing in his breifcase. That is how a guy like CM Punk will become acceptable in the Main-Event slots and winning Championships, he needs to put the work in with guys on his level first, get himself established and then win the big one eventually. |

I've got to agree with you somewhat, Punk should feud with someone like Jericho for a few months to help him gain some credibility on a major brand, then maybe he could have a shot at defeating Triple H or Taker. |

Punk currently has no momentum at all
for as many big wins as he gets, he gets just as many big losses. I'm not sure what their trying to do with him right now. They let him win MITB, then the next night he loses to Jericho, then he beats Matt Hardy and Jericho, but he loses to Regal. I have a feeling that it's going to be a while before he cashes in the briefcase. He might even wait until next year's Wrestlemania. Who knows though, he might just waste it on the ECW title in the near future.
