Considered one of the best to ever lace up a pair of wrestling boots, CM Punk made a hell of an impact for his relatively short time in with WWE. While CM Punk made a name for himself wrestling for promotions like Ring of Honor, he wrestled for WWE from 2005 to 2014. He originally made his way through the WWE's version of ECW before making an impact as the World Heavyweight Champion in 2008.

While in WWE, Punk was a 6-time World Champion, a 1-time Tag Team Champion, a1-time Intercontinental Champion, and a 2-time winner of Money in the Bank. However, one achievement Punk never managed to accomplish was winning the Royal Rumble.

Punk emerged as the first entry in the Royal Rumble and was the iron-man of the match, lasting 49 minutes and 11 seconds. He would make it to the final 4 before being eliminated by Kane.
