As Mania has been the past.... well ever, it is more about "star power", which can be good and bad, depending on your perspective.

A triple threat would have worked nicely, even with Punk doing the job and either Cena OR Rock going over. That would have kept his "you never beat me, I am better than you" asshole attitude in line as well as set up potential future matches with either.
I think it would have been better to have Cena vs Punk by itself. That feud was this era's flair vs steamboat or austin vs rock in my opinion. Some might say it's cena vs orton, but I feel cena and punk had much better chemistry both in the ring and when trading words.

You could still have rock on the show facing the undertaker. Their history and iconic status would have made for a much better build than crappy exploitation of paul bearers death that we got.

Its a weird thing with punk where he had the longest title reign in modern history. 6th longest of all time in the company which would lead you to believe he was the top guy in the company. But the rock cena stuff came along. This is also the same company who put a savage flair title match with a great story in place in the midcard to give a hogan sid snoozefest as their main event

He was successful on pretty much every level, aside from his own interpretation of "success" with regards to Main Eventing WrestleMania. To which I'd attribute a rare case of modesty, or, more likely, he's being coy and trying to get people to tell him how well he did.

He had more success than 90% of guys who make the main roster. He was strongly featured, had a mammoth World Title run, had a number of great matches and even better moments. He was arguably the trail blazer for the likes of Daniel Bryan, Kevin Owens, Sami Zayn, Hideo Itami, Styles, Nakamura, etc. being brought into the company and being given a chance.

I want to thank everybody for the contributions, we got to read many of them on the show, which is now available at the following link:

Join us for The Trial Of CM Punk! The debate is on, as the prosecution and defense discuss the charge of Fraud and Misrepresentation, in that Punk and his WWE career did not live up to hype that the internet fans and he himself showed upon him going in and throughout. Taking your witness statements, we debate his matches, promos, originality, attitude, drawing power, and overall influence on the business as we know it today. A tremendous debate and a big thank you to those who contributed, check it out and let us know what you think of the verdict!

Was excellent. Very back and forth argument. I was a roller coaster of emotion.
