#3 CM Punk's PIPEBOMB!

June 27, 2011

Is this thing on?

Things were uneasy between former WWE Superstar CM Punk and WWE's creative powers-that-be, back in the summer of 2011. Punk thought of himself one way and well, WWE officials felt a little differently about him, or at least it appeared so. With his contract nearing expiration, Punk sat down Indian style, at the top of the entrance ramp and for the next few moments, what may have seemed like an eternity for those in the gorilla position, CM Punk spewed his guts out and the infamous "pipebomb promo" was born.
