#3 He used to run a backyard wrestling promotion
CM Punk has been a wrestling fan since childhood, and he’s always loved the danger and creativity behind it. As a result, he, his brothers and friends decided to set up a wrestling ring in their garden called The Lunatic Wrestling Federation.
Funnily enough, the makeshift business was a huge success in his local area. Money was rolling in and local interest was seemingly peaking.
However, the promotion came to an end when Punk realised a lot of the sheets weren’t balancing and money was apparently going missing. Punk blamed his brother Mike Brooks and the two haven’t spoken till this day.
