Despite some fresh opponents and interesting stories on paper, the last few months of CM Punk's WWE career are almost difficult to watch in retrospect. It is clear that all the fun had gone out of it, another understandable point when you consider the medical state of play at the time. Punk had become a shadow of his former self in WWE, and he was probably right to become that by this point. Can you really blame him?

Looking back, it should have been legendary. CM Punk and Daniel Bryan teaming up? The two opposing The Wyatt Family (back when they were still fairly credible) and The Shield? The two standard bearers for quality going up against six of the freshest, most exciting stars on the entire roster? It should have flew right out of the park.

But by this point Punk was done, and it sort of tells. It is difficult to criticise as a result, but when thinking of the man's pro wrestling career, these months won't be brought up too much.

Born in the middle of Wales in the middle of the 1980's, John can't quite remember when he started watching wrestling but he has a terrible feeling that Dino Bravo was involved. Now living in Prague, John spends most of his time trying to work out how Tomohiro Ishii still stands upright. His favourite wrestler of all time is Dean Malenko, but really it is Repo Man. He is the author of 'An Illustrated History of Slavic Misery', the best book about the Slavic people that you haven't yet read. You can get that and others from www.poshlostbooks.com.
