Punk doesn't belong in a Main Event match on a PPV. Main Eventing WM is getting down right crazy. Really why would we want to see a Edge - Punk title for title when we can have Edge vs Taker?
If Punk is in the royal rumble to get a title shot while being ECW Champ. What does that say for the ECW title? (which most of us know doesn't mean much). His crowd reaction isn't even in the top 10 of wrestlers. So in other words......No.

It could happen. WWE has been good to CM Punk.

It would be awesome to see Punk win it but it won't happen.

whats with you IWC people and your obsession with these small guy 180 pounders soaking wet who cant give u an interview along with to save their lives and look like your typical trailer trash guys who buys tickets to the cheap seats? NO OFFENSE.. But they look far from and away from what professional wrestlers are supposed to look like. When have small guys ever done sell out business? Bret Hart, Shawn Michaels, Ric Flair (in his day) are all great examples of guys with the same physique as Punk. ...I'd like to see Batista carry an interview better than Punk's pre-WWE.

"There's no way CM Punk will win the Royal Rumble. Unless, of course, my 29 other participants fall victim to 29 separate misfortunes and are unable to wrestle that night. But that will never happen. Three misfortunes, that's possible. Seven misfortunates, there's an outside chance. But 29 misfortunes? I'd like to see that!" *Picturing John Morrison being hypnotized to think he's a chicken and Jeff Hardy being picked up for a murder in New York ;D 'What happened to Undertaker?' 'No idea' *shows Undertaker falling through a dimentional portal* 'NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!'

no he's lucky to be holding the ECW title for this long. He'll never main event a PPV let alone a Mania. Be serious!

They just need to move him to Smackdown full time and then build him up to go to Raw in a year or two. Casual fans don't see Punk as a legit threat because he is stuck on Velocity and holds a title on par with the TV Title back in 2000. Hell I'm surprise fans react to him the way they do. Especially considering how everyone else in ECW fares in crowd reactions.

If Rey Mysterio could "win", Punk could "win". If you're talking about the "really real world", no cruiserweight would win the Royal Rumble.
But we're suspending disbelief, then there you go.

On Sunday, he'll be needing his interview cred back. I don't want to see Punk win the Rumble. He's not ready, and it would come off too much as catering to smarks...which WWE is not in the habit of doing fortunately so why start now?

To be honest, he needs to continue with his stories involving the ECW title, because it's gotten to the point to where he seems to be the only reason casual fans (or just about anyone) cares about the show.
If WWE really believes in this third brand, they won't put him in the match.

NO OFFENSE.. But they look far from and away from what professional wrestlers are supposed to look like. When have small guys ever done sell out business? Alright assuming you're not joking, ill address this 1. Punk is 6 foot 1, 225 pounds, not exactly a small man 2. for the promo comment, youtube.com/watch?v=XuP8tqxeslY one of his several good ones. the guy is over with several for his promo ability alone (as well as being one hell of a wrestler). Not sure where you're going at saying he cant do an interview to save his life. also seen here --> youtube.com/watch?v=eSGHYFGSk5Yone of his more memorable WWE era promos 3. oh and small guys don't sell huh...hmm..HBK, Bret Hart, Rey Mysterio, Chris Jericho, Jeff Hardy, Kurt Angle, and countless others would disagree with you on that one 4. and finally, who are you to judge what type of body type is a true "wrestling" body. Moronic individuals like your self help contribute to people like Dave Batista jacking the selves so full of juice that their barely mobile. This isn't body building, this is pro wrestling. I am afraid alot of people have forgotten that over the years Thank you for setting this dude straight. Couldn't have said it better myself. Oh yeah, I'm one of the long haired goons in the cheap seats.

Nah, what's the rush? How many years did it take Undertaker to win the Rumble? Or Michaels? Or Hart?

I proposed this idea in the ECW thread after Punk beat Chavo again last night. Punk should enter the Rumble with the storyline that he could possibly have 2 world titles after Wrestlemania. It would build some drama into the Rumble if they made it seem like someone other than Batista, Taker, etc.......... could win it.
