Best: CM Punk Matches

Hey guys I'm back yet again, over the last couple of weeks I made several lists of Essential Career Matches for wrestlers such as: John CenaUndertakerTriple HChris JerichoRandy OrtonDolph Ziggler and Seth Rollins. This week we’re doing things a bit different I’m actually doing a retired WWE wrestler – CM Punk. The reason for doing this is because we’re only a couple of hours before his anticipated debut in the UFC, so I thought I’d give a list of the former wrestlers best matches within WWE and other various wrestling promotions. CM Punk for many is the reason why WWE became ‘big again’ and when I say that I’m implying that many fans who had been away from the product returned after delivering his famous ‘pipebomb promo’ and also helped bring new fans to WWE because it created a bit of buzz in pop-culture. These collection of matches comes from Dave Meltzer (his matches feature his ratings for matches rated 3 1/2+), and matches that I believe are good too (these matches will be included in honourable mentions). Since Punk was very well known for his promos I will be also adding an extra section for a few of his best promos. Also since a few people have commented on these posts saying 'stop throwing lists at us with no information' I have tried to include little facts, moments and brief details and descriptions for a few of the matches listed. I have also tried to add a link to each match as well, although with some matches it was difficult to get full high quality matches (or even videos at all) - videos come from either WWE Network, YouTube, DailyMotion and a few random websites that I was able to find the Ring of Honor matches from. Also if you're into posts about Match lists and whatnot check out my other lists on this post (Matches from 2011-2016)this post (Matches from 2005 - 2010), and also this post (Matches from 2000 - 2004)Lastly, I used Meltzer’s ratings as a guide but make sure to make your own opinion (or rating in this case) about the matches. Just cause he gives something a 3, doesn't mean that it isn't a 5 to you!

  • CM Punk Vs Austin Aries – ROH Death Before Dishonor III – 4 ½* - CM Punk would win the ROH championship for the first time, and thus straight after the match turned heel, he tricked the fans into believing his contract was up and it was his last match; so he was cheered and loved.. until he cuts a famous promo.
