10 Worst Feuds Of CM Punk's WWE Career

1. Triple H And Kevin Nash

The worst feud of CM Punk's career involved Triple H and his good buddy Kevin Nash, who for some reason was a part of this storyline that really didn't have a good payoff or make a whole lot of sense. Punk lost the WWE Championship at SummerSlam, after Kevin Nash randomly attacked him with a Powerbomb and then Alberto Del Rio cashed-in his MITB briefcase. A month after that, Punk headlined Night of Champions against Triple H because he thought Hunter was out to get him, which is why Nash was there. It's that Punk vs. Hunter at Night of Champions match that really upset people. Instead of Punk winning, Hunter got the win and they never had another match where Punk got his win back like he should have. It was only done to build Hunter's rivalry with Nash, which was ridiculously boring and led to a terrible ladder match at TLC match a few months later. The only highlight of the Punk/Nash feud was when he read a joke tweet from his sister saying: "OMG Kevin Nash WTF Thought he was dead LOL". It was pretty funny the way Punk read it. For this feud to really work, Hunter should have turned heel. The reason he didn't is because he wanted to do the big angle with The Undertaker (and Shawn Michaels) at WrestleMania 28 where it was the "End of an Era", so if Hunter was a fully-blown heel that wouldn't have been as memorable. Here's how Nash explained it in early 2012 noting he was on some prescription drug called Plavix that he was told to take:
"When the doctor sees I€™m on Plavix, I can€™t wrestle. So now I€™m supposed to wrestle C.M. Punk. I can€™t. They won€™t medically clear me. Triple H has to take my spot. It screws up the entire angle. That€™s how all that came about. WWE would never €“ because that€™s the class of the program €“ let that come out, but I need to make sure people realize it wasn€™t Creative€™s , it was that a 52 year old guy was on Plavix and I had to go off it. I had to be off it for a certain amount of time before I could go back to work."
That's a nice way of Nash defending the creative team. They still could have done something where Punk ultimately beat Triple H because losing to him was a stupid decision.
