That's very exaggerated. Reports did come out that Punk had heat on him, and that guys like Triple H and Arn Anderson loved making fun of Punk. I didn't personal buy into them, and instead chose to look at Vince liking (I'd never use the word "love") Punk due to Vince mentioning Punk by name as a future star for the company, in the same interview where Vince called Randy Orton "Bob Orton's son."

I don't recall Punk ever being a PR darling of the WWE, either. That's always been John Cena. People assumed that Punk could get a push because of the drug shit, and it turns out he did, but I don't ever recall the WWE saying "Look at our drug free guy!"
