I used to think there could be some sort of "ironic attraction" to those sorts of things, but the only people it really appeals to are wrestling fans.

If Punk wanted to get back into wrestling, you'd be a fool not to take him, but you've got to smart about how you book him. I'd suggest that he be brought in as a manager or commentator that is eventually cornered in the ring. Punk's ego, and perhaps rightfully so, is probably too big to put himself in the Bobby Heenan role in 2016/2017 though.
Him as a manager would be great. He can talk and he can bump. I would really be able to get behind that.

Don't blame Punk for getting paid. If UFC wanted to make that offer, he should take it if he wanted to take it. I will say the fact that he bumped guys off the card who otherwise would've been in that spot had Punk not been there is funny though. Guy apparently basically despised the idea of others doing the same to him and others in WWE.

I dont blame him, but I don't respect him for it either.

Oh, I don't blame him for getting paid at all. And I don't blame the UFC for paying him. This is all business. It's just funny from a fan perspective.

And I also don't blame UFC fighters for being pissed off. I mean, if I was a fighter, I wouldn't care. The more money Punk draws on PPV the less likely my checks are to bounce at the end of the day. In some ways, I can understand why wrestlers would be more upset -- because it's fake and the company can dictate who it wants to get over -- but I could understand why a fighter who trains so hard is kind of annoyed that Punk would get paid so much to go out there and get killed.

If I were a guy who spent years training fighting his way up to the main card only to be bumped to the preshow...id be bitter.

Yeah, I get that. I think it's because I try to understand the business side of things that I see the outside perspective. It'd probably annoy me more if fighting was my number one focus.

Bringing punk in was brilliant from a fiscal stance...just like the rock headlining against cena was a good move as well. I have no issue with the ufc making the choices theyve made. Its Punk's choices and the hypocrisy of them that gets me.

Its good though, the punk fight, for the undercard guys. The exposure will go a long way for all involved assuming the viewers return.

Galls opening strikes looked fucking HEAVY.
