CM Punk has been equated to Randy Savage, Bret Hart, & Roddy Piper. Which is he most like? Would it be better to just recognize him as a blend of the three?

I keep hearing people say this and yet dont see it. Why are people saying the 2 are similar? Rollins is polished in the ring. He is EXTREMELY athletic and has a better mind for constructing matches. Hardy is more creative and free. He does his own thing...marching to the beat of his own drum. He is a daredevil where Rollins is a highflyer. The Charismatic Enigma IS Jeff Hardy. He doesnt cut promos that wow you....but he somehow just mesmerizes the audience by his style, his actions and his mannerisms. Perhaps its just his raw honesty that is infectious. Jeff can bump and really sell it in the ring for his opponent. Rollins gets over because he can work. He can tell a story in the ring and have one of the most exciting and scientifically sound matches. Both are great in their own rights....but I dont see a lot of similarities.

If I was to compare Rollins to anyone....it would be a young Edge.
