10 Reasons WWE’s WrestleMania 31 Is Already Doomed
10. Fans Still Miss CM Punk
For over ten years, CM Punk has been a fan-favourite among wrestling fans. From his days as the king of independent wrestling, through to his ECW debut and the infamous Pipe Bomb, fans have always loved Punk and identified with him as one of us. Punk has a short temper, hes outspoken and hell do what he needs to in order to get his own. Hes someone that the more cynical members of the WWE Universe look up to, but its been nearly a year since he stepped foot in a WWE ring. CM Punk was dragged out of the ring by Kane at Royal Rumble 2014, and hasnt been seen on WWE TV since. Speculation was rife around just why CM Punk left, but the most prevailing theory is a combination of excessive burnout and dissatisfaction with his planned role for WrestleMania XXX. Whatever Punks reason was, hes now gone on record as retired from wrestling and is doing his best to distance himself from the sport. With a much thinner roster than WWE would like at this point, the return of CM Punk would be a much needed boost for the ailing company, but that doesnt seem likely any time soon. While WWE has been doing okay without the Straight Edge Superstar, it always feels like theres something missing without him.
