In 2011, CM Punk was pretty fed up. Having busted his tail for years, the physical style of the man's matches, along with the punishing 'always on' nature of the WWE schedule, meant he felt it was time to take a well-deserved break. On more than one occasion, Punk stated that it was time to take it easy for a while, something he planned on doing after fulfilling his remaining dates before the Money In The Bank Pay-Per-View in July. Few can blame him of this, he's only human, but somewhere along the line, Punk changed from a man determined to take a well-earned rest, to someone hell bent on squeezing as much money as he could from the WWE coffers to change his mind. When asking him what it would take to keep him on the road, CM Punk replied with a laundry list of demands. Putting ink to paper on a contract extension, Punk now had more money than ever before, more control over his character going forward, and his very own tour bus to transport him from city to city. When news broke of these demands, some fans were pleased for him, but others pointed out that he'd previously taken the stance of fighting for fairness in WWE, but had sold out to become one of the more protected men in the industry.
