For sure, he's an arrogant prick.
But being an arrogant prick is in.
And wouldn't YOU be if YOU had the internet kissing your ass non-stop for the past 8 years? I think it'd be hard not to be, at that point.

Yes
As much as I like him as a wrestler, he always seems like the sort of guy I would hate in real life.

He can't be any more dickish than Randy Orton used to be.

I haven't heard these kind of stories since he made to the E, but during his Indy days there were a lot of stories about him being a dick to fans. It may have just been him staying in character or something, but people seemed genuinely offended by it.

I believe he's admitted as much in at least one of his interviews.
But unless it concerns something I like (The Rock), then I don't really care. In the end, it's only what comes up on my television that's supposed to matter. He's still a great performer.
That said, I don't think I'd ever want to meet him.

It doesn't affect my enjoyment of him on screen, but yeah, Punk's prickery has been long well documented.
And to tell the truth, while Cena's charity work and nice attitude doesn't hurt at all, I think I'd still be a fan of his work even if he was a douche IRL.

Oh God, yes. I used to love Punk, but his attitude has worn on me over the years and honestly diminished my enjoyment of him as a face.

I kinda get a bit put off by the fact hes a dick in real life. I really hate those kinds of people.
One of my faves, but I'd have no desire to meet him or get anything signed. Maybe thats why he bes a dick, since he doesnt like meeting fans apparently.

CM Punk kinda reminds me of Steve Austin and Bret Hart that way. I love to watch him, he's one of my favorite wrestlers, but I wouldn't ever want to meet him in real life.

He's one of those guys that needs to get his ass kicked to put him in place. Problem is, only a handful of people can kick his ass and they wouldn't do it. One of my faves, but I'd have no desire to meet him or get anything signed. Maybe thats why he bes a dick, since he doesnt like meeting fans apparently. Ditto.

By all accounts, the man seems to be a massive twat in real life. But most of my favourite musicians, actors and writers are twats in real life too, it doesn't affect my enjoyment of their work.

He admits he can be a prick a lot of the time, but he comes across as the kind of person who calls things how he sees them, and doesn't care whether people agree with him or not.

I don't think I've ever seen a negative story from someone that's met Bret. Not too sure about Austin though. Bret's a mark for himself, though... that probably does count against him.

with Steve it's not about him being a prick to fans so much as him beating his wife. as for Bret, the guy came off as pretty full of himself back in the day. he may be better now.
