Even though he had high profile matches, he was never the guy. During his lengthy title reign he was playing second fiddle to Cena vs Johnny Ace. He was never the main event. People complain but the fact remains that Cena vs Rock II had more appeal than a watered down triple threat with Punk to appease internet marks.

That didn’t address the topic at hand. Regardless of what you think of him, clearly Vince was high enough on him to put him in marquee matches with the biggest names they had. So either Vince is an idiot and pushed a no talent Indy star, or perhaps there’s more to wrestling than just athleticism and muscles, and Vince knows that and used Punk because he was actually good at his job even if he didn’t have the look he typically goes for.
