Punk's gimmick is him. He's a miserable a$$hole 24/7. Even his best friends can't sugarcoat how much of a prick he is to be around. Dude was NEVER EVER going to be the singular top guy with his dikkhole attitude he brought everywhere with him.
I can't help but to say this-- as much as I was not an AJ Lee fan...
But sometimes I think about what a self professed dikk he is and even his friends admit...
And I wonder if she is going to look back in just a few years and regret that she jumped ship on her dream before it went big with some of the greatest WWE women's talents ever to step foot in a WWE ring...for a beat up, whiny, negative a-hole.
She's not a regular old chick who would need to cozy up to a man of his millions, she could have easily made it in WWE if she stayed and been one of the GOATs. Instead, she left and her legacy got tossed into the bushes. Nikki broke her record, they got rid of the title so Nikki will have it forever, and Sasha Banks has people going "AJ who?"
All in less than two years...
I hope Punk smartens up and stops being so bitter someday, but I think its his personality.
