HBK and HHH on CM Punk
Credit: WX
CM Punk was trashed backstage recently by Triple H, Shawn Michaels, and Michael Hayes after watching one of his matches. The main thing they put against him was that they thought he didn’t know how to get over, and that he wrestlers like he’s doing a simulated wrestling match, not working a wrestling match. Due to Paul Heyman’s liking for him, it was first thought that he would do OK backstage in WWE. However, with Paul Heyman’s pull in WWE decreasing at the hands of Stephanie McMahon, this may not help him as much as people once thought. Some backstage observers claim that no matter what Punk did in the ring, they still would have been down on him. Simply because he’s an unknown who isn’t physically impressive and doesn’t have a gimmick that he can use to get over yet. |

That is the biggest load of crap. Cm punk is one of the best at working the crowd, not only with his matches but his promos as well.

But not in the WWE style that HHH and HBK made so famous.
Also...shouldn't Hayes be dead by now or something? |

No, they're going to keep him though. I'm pretty sure they'd rather keep him in Heat than have him go to TNA, even though they really pose no threat to WWE at the moment.

Yeah, because we all know that Trips is spectacular in the ring. Michaels is a shell of what he once was.
Damn, how I wish Punk just stayed in the Indies and possibly signed with TNA. The WWE will misuse him to such an extent where it'll make the misuse of Taz look good. |

I thought Triple H got along fine with Punk backstage? I don't know, but with CM Punk being quite the good worker, and with him being able to get the fans into everything he does, I think Michaels, Triple H and Hayes were just ribbing him. Just sarcastically nitpicking at everything he does as a joke.
I honestly can't see Triple H (who CM Punk oftens remindes me of) saying the kid has no talent. And Shawn Michaels was just in a program with Chris Masters. I like Masters, but in no way can he connect with the fans like CM Punk can. |

All you people who HBk is a shell of what he once was are wrong
Sure he is not as fast as once was and not as Acrobatic, but he can still go in the ring better then ANYONE. With his recent run he's proved that he is among the best ever if not THE BEST. Also about CM Punk that sucks :sad: |

Shawn Michaels is in no way a shell of his former self. I do not believe he has lost a step, only some hair. I find it mildly amusing that Shawn Michaels was making fun of CM Punk for not being physically impressive, since it is coming from a guy who has weighed around 215 pounds most his career.
I do think they have a point though. From what I have seen from the WWE CM Punk , he offers nothing to me. They have given him absolutely no character, no gimmick and nothing to work with. How can you ask a guy to connect with the fans in a 5 minute match with no idea of a gimmick or character to work with? The WWE has obviously not allowed him to be the Indy CM Punk that I saw in ROH. The Indy CM Punk knew how to piss off the crowd and work a professional wrestling match! The reason why he conencted with the fans is because he was allowed to progress his character. He was given microphone time and more than 5 minutes to work the typical WWE Heat armdrag, headlock, suplex, counter suplex, pinfall match. I am not even a big CM Punk fan but I know he can work a crowd into a frenzy if given an oppertunity. |

Michaels has lost a step. Only a single step in his career.

lol@people syaing HBK isn't as good as he used to be, what aload of crap. Did you guys not see his match at Unforgiven?
Anyway, the WWE should just let CM Punk do what he can, instead of being so fucking controlling over him. This is where they've messed up so many times, they hire wrestlers who they know can be good, yet they want to control them so they themselves can take the credit if it turns out a success.That's what it's about, but as we've seen so many times before, this way doesn't work.This was why I didn't get over excited about the WWE signing him, I knew this would happen. |

CM Punk has no gimmick to get over on....
The whole straight edge thing never really got over huh? He wasn't the most over heel in ROH for close to two years, and wasn't the most over face for a year? I guess not |
