Long before calling the Susan G. Komen Foundation a “scam” in 2015, CM Punk was busy not being a total d*ck, and was involved in many charities. Phil Brooks has granted many wishes for the Make-A-Wish Foundation, as well as a similar charity called the Kids Wish Network.

The 'Straight Edge Superstar' joined the Kerry Wood’s Strike Zone Bowling Tournament in 2008, a tournament that benefits the Organic School Project, which sets out to improve the health of Chicago children through healthy eating and education. Punk has also painted customized chairs for the Chicago Cubs to be auctioned off for charity, and in 2015, auctioned off his first car, a 2001 Chevrolet Monte Carlo for C.J. Wilson’s Children Charities.

Aside from his random charitable appearances, Punk sets an ultimate example that it can be "cool" and rather successful to be straight edge in a world that glorifies alcohol and drugs. He may be a mess to work with backstage, according to some, but overall, Punk is a good guy, and nobody can take that away from him.
