10 "Fake" wrestlers who are tougher than you

#9 CM Punk

Dishonorable Mention: CM Punk

Before we reach number one on our list, let's take a moment to 'appreciate' a 'Rassler who seems a lot tougher than he actually is.

Born Phillip Jack Boots - -seriously, that's a better ring name than CM Punk -- the mouthy, tattooed wrestler from the Windy City was first billed as being a master of both Muay Thai and Brazilian Jujitsu.

Unfortunately, Punk has never been in a Muay Thai ring and is referred to as a BJJ 'hobbyist.' Though Punk is quite a skilled performer in a wrestling ring, his abilities don't translate very well outside of the squared circle, as we saw when he was systematically destroyed by journeyman MMA fighter Mickey Gall.
