10 Binge-Watch Worthy Wrestling Stories
8. CM Punk's Departure
The first episode could start with CM Punk sitting next to Colt Cabana, two friends about to do a podcast that would change their lives. As Punk explains why he walked out of WWE in January 2014, viewers flashback to his final year in the company and all the injuries, issues, and personal conflicts he encountered. That podcast could last the entire first season and the finale could be his announcement that he had joined UFC.
Obviously, WWE would never, ever sign off on such an idea, especially considering it’s the subject of a current lawsuit between the company’s doctor and Punk. But it’s fun to fantasize about Michael Chiklis saying, “I’m a dumb fluff,” in his best Ryback impression.
