5 Superstars who suffered the most because of the shift to PG era

CM Punk

Would’ve probably surpassed Austin

CM Punk would’ve been a perfect fit for the Attitude Era. In fact, CM Punk would’ve been another Steve Austin if he had wrestled under the Attitude Era atmosphere. Punk, who was probably one of the best talkers in the roster during his time, would’ve had a lot of memorable segments just like Austin had in the Attitude Era.

The PG shift, however, made CM Punk into a toned down rebel. It was also probably the reason why he never got the chance to be the face of WWE because he never had the chance to showcase what he could do if given complete freedom.
