How about CM Phil got his ass beat so embarrassingly twice in UFC, that he should have never been given a top spot, or at the very least not a bad ass kick everybody's ass gimmick.

The fact that he has got into fights with the 3 weakest dudes who are playing wrestlers is proof he at least learned one lesson from UFC, dont get tough with anybody unless they are literal sheltered California gymnast.

As a massive UFC fan, I don't even care about CM Punk's UFC run. Got a couple of nice entrances and video packages. He started in his late 30s. Anyone who knows anything about MMA wasn't expecting much. As far as UFC goes, he's an after thought.

They're different worlds. People watch AEW and accept Orange Cassidy's leg kicks and defend the clearly fake stuff a lot of the are the same people who come after CM Punk and his performances in the UFC. I can buy though him training MMA for years at this point with top MMA talent, he'd be able to defend himself in a fight.

Should we celebrate the fact that CM Punk tried his luck in UFC despite not being talented enough? Or should we just call a spade a spade? I wonder if he was delusional enough to believe he'd have the same amount of success as Lesnar.

I think it's cool that he was willing to do something that he wanted to do knowing that if he was exposed (which he was) there would be people who would criticise him. In a world where people care way too much about the voices and opinions on the outside, it's refreshing to watch someone put themselves out there like that in order to fulfil a desire he had. More people would be happier and more fulfilled if they went after what they wanted.

He started in his late 30s with no MMA background in a league with people having trained since they were children. He wasn't going to be Brock. WWE/AEW talent in the same situation would have gotten the same results.

And he can legitimately whoop the entire AEW roster. I can think of them as different disciplines, but the “CM Punk is a bad fighter” argument is clearly not holding weight in AEW. You’ve got to turn it on every bitch in that locker room.

While there's some merit to what Noid is saying, I'd say Punk's in-ring work has been subpar as far his AEW run is concerned.
