Cm Punk... yea.. Like It.. :D


Phillip Jack Brooks[7] (born October 26, 1978),[2] better known by his ring name CM Punk, is an American professional wrestler and wrestling color commentator currently signed to World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) on its Raw brand, where he is the leader of The New Nexus.[8]
In professional wrestling, Punk is a five-time world champion having won the ROH World Championship once, the ECW Championship once and the World Heavyweight Championship three times. In addition to these championships Punk has also won the World Tag Team Championship (with Kofi Kingston), and the WWE Intercontinental Championship making him the nineteenth WWE Triple Crown Champion. He was also the winner of the 2008 and 2009 Money in the Bank ladder matches, the only Superstar to win the match twice in a row.[9]
Punk initially came to prominence through his career on the professional wrestling independent circuit, primarily as a member of the Ring of Honor (ROH) roster, where he won the ROH Tag Team Championship, ROH World Championship, and was the first head trainer of the ROH wrestling school. In 2005, Punk signed a contract with WWE and was sent to its developmental promotion, Ohio Valley Wrestling (OVW), where he won every championship available in the promotion.
Throughout his career, Punk has consistently used the gimmick of being straight edge, a lifestyle he follows in real life.[4] Depending on Punk's alignment as a crowd favorite or villain, he emphasizes different aspects of the culture to encourage the desired audience reaction.[4]

Punk was traded back to the Raw brand on October 11 after being swapped with Edge. He took part in the interbrand tag team match at Bragging Rights after injuring Evan Bourne to win a place,[124] but the team lost. It was reported later that he was suffering with a hip injury that would stop him from competing.[125] To keep a presence on television, he began commentating on Raw from November 22,[126] having already commentated one episode of NXT. At the end of December, Punk left the commentary team after assaulting John Cena on Raw[127] and SmackDown[128] with a chair. Punk later revealed that his motives for the attacks were that he had joined and assumed control of The Nexus.[129][8]
