CM Punk after realizing he's nearly 40, taken a million bumps, been concussed multiple times, and injured nearly every part of his body during his wrestling career. I think its cool that he wants to test his mettle in MMA, and as a "celebrity" it only makes sense for him to do it in UFC but he should honestly have gotten any issues like this taken care of 100% before starting with any kind of MMA training. Dude was basically walking around a shambling corpse of a dude during his final days of WWE and didn't give him self the proper time to heal up before jumping back into this kinda stuff. I think he's got kind of a macho thing going, sort of like how he kept on the road in WWE rather than taking some time off. Kind of puts the "Vince begged me to come back early" thing into perspective when Punk will wait 2 years to fix a supposedly nagging back problem.

You smell that. I smell *****Seriously, what gives though. Had all the time in the world and now he has to have a procedure. No matter how minor it is he's still a guy closing in on 40 with a beat up body. Dana must be cursing up a hurricane.

I really do wonder how Dana's feeling about his best buddy Phil these days.

Call me crazy; could it be at all possible that this is a work to get people angry and eager to see Punk get his ass kicked, to build up this Mickey Gall guy? Punk's realistically gonna be having just the one fight, would they not just use this opportunity to build up a better long-term drawing prospect in Gall by having Punk suddenly decided right after his opponent is announced to have "surgery" and delay the fight to piss people off and make them want to see him get his head kicked in?
EDIT: This isn't me being a Punk apologist by the way, he's a 37 year old man who legitimately calls himself a "Sociopathic straight edge atheist jerk", f*** that guy

Phil Brooks never was an MMA fighter and he never will be. This whole UFC things was a huge publicity stunt for both sides. Maybe at some point they thought to put him up against some cans, but the more times passed and the more urgent the fans wanted him to finally fight they teased it but found a way out of it. He would have gotten his ass beat and this is the best way out for him.

I've been one of Punk's biggest supporters over the years... but man, give it up. Go home, write a few more comic books, and knock out a few more sets of triplets with AJ.

I'll bet it was as soon as Gall's last fight ended that his back started to hurt ha

These were my exact words when I first saw this story. Then I kind of chuckled and shook my head and said "of course". The timing of this surgery is... awfully convenient. also this. It reminds me of when HHH said that Punk liked to talk stuff and bitch, but when people asked him directly he acted as though nothing was wrong. Dude, in my opinion, as always been a martyr and mark for himself, and just barks a lot. But, that's just how I see him. This comes as zero surprise. The guy couldn't even do the ice bucket challenge right, and acted like he was some badass on camera after that. *smirk*

So how long until this becomes CM Punks fight cancelled?
Because this is getting kinda ridiculous at this point and Punk isn't getting any younger.

He's in way over his head and it just took him this long to realise it. He joined UFC not long after he left WWE, mainly just to spite Vince, but what he didn't realise was the fact that joining UFC means he's actually going to have to fight somebody, for real, with only a year of training under his belt.

I like Punk, but I think there's a very good chance that this is 100% spot on
