You guys both makes excellent points, but here is why I do relate to CM Punk on some level:

While I agree with Fignuts that Punk has been given a lot and it probably was wrong of him to walk out, the fact of the matter is that he's an independent contractor; not an employee. He is free to do what he wants, and if he's saved enough money, then he can come and leave as he chooses.......especially when the WWE themselves have a tendency to treat their "employees" like chess pieces.

I also suspect that CM Punk isn't particularly upset over not being in the main-event. He has gone on record saying that this is Bryan's year. Punk seems to be upset over the fact that certain part-time wrestlers do not nothing for years on end, and then suddenly come back around the Rumble and end up main-eventing Mania'.

Punk doesn't have issues with guys like Taker, Triple H, and Brock (yet), but appears to resent how they've used Batista.

I honestly don't blame Punk one bit here.
Key word: "Contractor".

He signed a contract. Made a commitment. A promise.

And he broke it. It's that simple to me. I don't disagree with his problems with Batista coming back, just like I didn't disagree with Austin's reasons for walking out. I disagree with how they handled it.

Nothing WWE has done (or hasn't done as the case may be) justifies Punk walking out and screwing them over before their biggest event of the year.
