8 Things We Learned From CM Punk's Sports Illustrated Appearance

1. He Believes Many WWE Workers Are All Talk About Switching To MMA

Want to know how many WWE wrestlers have talked about making the jump to mixed martial arts? If you believe CM Punk, it's a lot of them. About half. According to Punk;
"I€™ve always been surrounded by guys who talked about it. Half of them talk about it; none of them do it. They have their little comfortable safety net doing WWE stuff, I guess. I would much rather give it a shot than just talk about it."
That may not make him any friends backstage, but then, does it really matter anymore?
