I think on many occasions CM Punk was one of the most entertaining parts of the WWE.
In my opinion, Punk struggled to accept WWE saw him as a sports entertainer (as they do all superstars) and not a wrestler, which is why he felt entitled and disillusioned. He knows he is a better wrestler than Cena and The Rock, yet Cena and The Rock were pushed ahead of him because they clearly appeal to a wider demographic, despite not being as technically talented in the ring.
While I understand Punks frustrations and agree with a lot of his points, I think he was always destined to leave WWE on bad terms because Punk belongs and is best suited to a wrestling organisation, and not a sports entertainment organisation - which is a fundamental and irreconcilable difference of vision to what Vince has for the WWE.
