20 Most Popular Wrestlers Of 2014 (According To Google Metrics)
3. CM Punk, 96.2% Increase From 2013
The man who internet fans simply can't get enough. The name 'CM Punk' has became a google and social media sensation in 2014, shooting up 96.2% in google metrics. The reason? It has all been down to the mystery around his January exit. Punk quit the WWE, with neither side offering any comment on their dispute. That instantly sent google into overdrive, as fans immediately started googling Punk's name in hope of getting answers on the matter. Even now, the mystery endures, so a mere mention of Punk's name still gets the internet wrestling community excited. That continues to send the google metrics up and up. The rule should be 'out of sight, out of mind', but it has ended up being absence makes the interest grow stronger! The Wrestling Observer reports that Punk's google numbers blow away anything he ever did when actually on television, and Punk interest even surpassed John Cena during mid July when the Money In The Bank PPV emanated from Chicago. Whether Punk and WWE like it or not, this story (or should that be non-story?) looks set to roll and roll.
