CM Punk opened up on what he misses the most in pro wrestling. Punk talked about how Paquette talked him into joining WWE Backstage and had nothing but praise for her.

That's one of the things I miss. People like yourself, you're a peach. I'm not gonna sit here and put you over. You know how cool you are. There's obviously people that I miss, and I miss seeing friendly faces, although they were few and far between while you were there, but you were one of them.

CM Punk made his MMA debut for UFC a short while after he left WWE in early 2014. Punk opened up on his move from pro wrestling to MMA and stated that he wanted to do it much earlier.

I had planned on leaving when my deal was up in 2010 or 2011, whatever it was. That as my plan, I always thought it was never gonna be just a hobby for me.

Punk eventually debuted in UFC, but the run didn't go as he had planned. He lost both UFC fights, and that was it in terms of an MMA career for him.
