I stay loyal, as I've done with Cena, but everyone seems to turn within a few weeks. I can't say that I'm a die-hard Punk fan because I didn't follow him in ROH, but I have since he came to the WWE, and I marked when he won the ECW strap from Morrison. I remember replaying it over and over and over again. It was a great moment. Last night, WWE truly shocked me, for 2 reasons. First, because I was saying to myself (just as I did at NOC), "Okay, Punk's gonna come out now.." and I got myself pumped for it. Then when Edge's music hit, I said to myself, "ugh.. another missed opportunity." Then Batista came out and I figured that him and Edge would have ANOTHER program together, or this would truly be the last of it. Then Punk's music hit and I marked the out like no tomorrow. Secondly, WWE has started to push a lot of "future" talent, like Cody Rhodes & Ted Dibiase Jr., Katie Lea (already in a Women's Championship match), Natalya Neidhart, Kofi Kingston, and now they gave CM Punk the World Heavyweight Championship. I'm so glad. The moment's seriously imbedded into my mind right now and it's all I can think about. I've never been that excited over something that's happened since Edge first cashed in his MITB at NYR'06.

Let me put it like this.. - I don't like Punk without a title. - I don't like Punk with a title. - I don't like Punk at all. Punk's not a "OH MY GOD!" guy in my book. that's how i feel.

as long as he doesn't go too much into the straightedge s**t i'll be down with him, i really like him and he's someone different for world champion. if he goes TOO over-the-top straightedge tho i'll have no choice but to be annoyed with him

i agree with you Lorenzo,but i also laugh at how NOT long it took for everyone to jump right on board with the sigs & avatars.
its the way of the world..... some people are going to hate some people are going to like some people are going to do whatever the larger majority does

What turns me off about C.M Punk is his hardcore straight edge gimmick. When someone clams edge and is under the age of 16 is just stupid, and with C.M Punk i bet lil kids say they are straight edge all the time. Being straight edge is so much more then not drinking, smoking, or having promiscuous sex, it's a life style where hardcore music is half of it. I bet 89% of the kids on here can't even name the band who started straight edge movement without looking it up.

People here act like he is the greatest wrestler in the world. I just don't see it. I just don't see him as a main eventer. I see him as a mid-card kind of guy. But thats just me. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion.

I've been a fan of his since he debuted in WWE. I'm not a Punk mark, and couldn't care if he had the title, but I enjoy his ring work. I just want to see how well he can hold up as World Champ.
PS
Is anyone else glad the big gold belt is back on Raw? I hated the spinner belt.

CM PUNK DOESNT DESERVE TO BE THE WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION!
I WOULD HAVE CHOSEN FLOYD MONEY MAYWEATHER AS THE WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION THAN CM PUNK!I'd say 3 weeks max. It always happens. And that's why I agree that Vince McMahon should NEVER give the fans what they want because they always end up hating it anyway. This happened to Lesnar. This happened to Benoit. This happened to Orton. This happened to Cena. This happened to Mysterio. This happened to Lashley. The internet CRAZED over somebody. All they did was complain and rant and rave every waking moment about how _______ should be a champion or get a push.....then as soon as it happened....that person was PUBLIC ENEMY NUMBER ONE. Let's see if history repeats itself.....as it always does. You say he doesn't deserve it and then want to put it on a guy who deserves it less?

I always liked CM Punk, and I will never turn on him. He is a great wrestler and has great mic skills and wrestling ability.

I'm not exactly a CM Punk fan and I think people need to earn their spots. The fact that he hasn't even had mid-card matches or any notable feuds with anybody important turns me off. If he had won the Intercontinental title Sunday I would have been happier...but whatever it is what it is. I feel WWE rushed him, let's see if it hurts his career like it has everyone else who they've rushed.
Also, I would like to say something to the people who say they hate CM Punk because of his "straight edge" gimmick. Well....he really hasn't cut a promo about being straight edge since September of 2006.....soooo that's kind of a stupid reason to hate him. He may live his REAL LIFE being straight edge, but it's basically not even part of his character right now except sometimes the commentators call him "the straight edge superstar" but he's never gotten on the stick and preached to anybody.
