Hornswaggle said Punk is the toughest person to have a friendship with. If you're his friend he'll take care of you and the relationship is very solid, trusting, and he'll be there for you. If there's some form of a slight no matter how minor or inconsequential it appears he'll cut that person off completely. I just remember how hurt Hornswaggle sounded when he said that Punk literally ended their friendship because he asked for a friends number. Given Punk's past with his family and friends, along with his acrimonious relationship with wrestling, he has strong trust issues and is very paranoid about the people around him. That's not a friendship, that's a dictatorship. If someone is your friend and you truly love them, a perceived slight shouldn't be enough to make you cut yourself off from them. If you can do that so easily, you don't really care about them the way you say you do. Friendships aren't supposed to hinge on how well they follow your rules on personal conduct, or how much they parrot your feelings and opinions. You can keep your free house if one day you're gonna turn around and give me the silent treatment like a four year old just because I had the gall to innocently ask for someone's phone number, or dare not to cut off someone else for a minor "infraction". |

Funnily enough, Joey Mercury is another guy Punk cut out of his life. |

Funnily enough, Joey Mercury is another guy Punk cut out of his life. Really? Yeah, happened around the same time Punk and Cabana seemingly had their bust up. Someone asked Mercury about it last year or earlier this year and he said he hadn't spoken to Punk in a couple of years but didn't want to talk any further about it. Seems like Punk only retained a very select number of friends from his wrestling days. |

Wasn't their a rumor earlier about him and Kofi not being friends either?
One would think if you helped someone save their house you must really care about them but I guess shit changes over time

In general Punk seems to have very little capacity to care about anyone but himself.

Punk’s autograph session at Pro Wrestling Tees on the 31st is sold out. I believe it was only limited to 200 tickets. If Punk is planning to countersue I think he will wait until September so he doesn’t have to deal with any fans questioning him more about it or take a chance at turning off any fans that already bought tickets. He wants to make the most money that he can at the event. Right now his hardcore fans might be sympathetic to him. Getting sued, getting his ass beat in UFC again, etc. I imagine he’d play it cool until the signing is over.

Those were Hornswaggle's words. Punk is a complicated individual to say the least and it seems like it doesn't take much at all for him to cut anyone out of his life. The fact that Hornswaggle simply asked for a phone number and Punk took it as if he was being used is just childish, paranoid, and cold. |

Not sure about Kofi, but it wouldn't surprise me. Hell, Punk was pretty friendly with Miz up until Miz got the world title push and subsequent WrestleMania main event, at which point he never passed up a chance to shit on Miz, whether it be on the BITW documentary, in interviews, or on podcasts, and more or less admitted that whenever they worked a match together after that he'd put zero effort into making it work. Even as a big fan of Punk, I can't not notice how much of an insecure, narcissistic bag of dicks he can be. Not that he ever hid it, that is. He's always been pretty open about the way he's wired. |

Narcissists or people with severe OCD who needs everything to be a certain way and sees no grey area. Punk could easily be both or fall into either category. Neither is defensible. I wonder if his straight edge devotion makes him not even want to try even a slight prescribed mental health drug that could potentially ease so much of these edges without affecting his personality. |

Funnily enough, Joey Mercury is another guy Punk cut out of his life. Really? I am doing this from memory so might have a couple of things backwards or something. Punk talked about this on the podcast. He was heading to either the PC or to see the guy who did the surgery on whatever was hurt so he could get cleared to start going full speed. He told Joey what he was doing and Joey told Vince or Hunter, and they called Punk telling him they were going to book him in a TLC match on Raw a week or so later. I think he said Joey was the only person other than AJ that knew and he didn't trust him after that. Man, I haven't watched a shoot interview in years but I'd love to see one from Punk to get his side of things. Not that I am trying to say he didn't do anything wrong or isn't an asshole, him responding to the stuff that is out there and that can speak on would be fun. |

Punk's pretty much nuked any sense of good will anybody had left for the man at this point. At a Progress event in Chicago his name was heavily booed by the audience followed by chants of "Colt Cabana". Even Chicago is finally sick of his shit after all these years.

Like I don't even know why that would upset him. I'd have no qualms asking my friend for another friend's contact info, and since my friends aren't delusional psychopaths I doubt they would get upset about it. |

He only did his first rf shoot for money and in it he even said that he hated doing it. He's pretty much Randy Savage, a recluse who burned every bridge. After this lawsuit is over I expect him to erase his twitter and just retire from public life. I'm gonna throw some bail at the guy only because he changed after the wwe fired him on his wedding day. After that he just erased wrestling and anyone from the wwe in his life. Before that he still had his friends from there, after that happened he killed his friendships with Kofi and Swoggle. |

Sometimes I wonder if maybe that's how he wants it? He obviously wants to be left alone all the time and not take the time to socialize with anyone. So maybe this is way of just saying f*** it and setting fire to every outlet involving wrestling. |

Before that he still had his friends from there, after that happened he killed his friendships with Kofi and Swoggle. I know "X unfollowed Y on Twitter" is generally something to roll your eyes at, but with Colt, Hornswoggle, and Mercury it rings true with Punk, and almost every wresting personality he still follows on Twitter is not employed by WWE: - Cliff Compton - MVP - Eve Torres - Matt Sydal - Jimmy Rave - Rocky Romero - Seth Skyfire - Rip Rogers - Alberto - JoMo - Batista - Bret Hart - Dave Prazak - Ace Steel - The Young Bucks - Steve Austin Only three exceptions to this: - Ronda Rousey - Eric Young - Shayna Baszler And in Ronda and Shayna's cases it's likely because he follows almost every MMArtist on the face of the planet. So yeah, at some point it looks like Kofi and Gallows got the axe as well. |

Which always came across as incredibly petty to me, his beef with Miz because he got a Mania main event spot.
Miz while not being the greatest wrestler at that time bust his ass that no one can match besides when you account in ring and outside the ring work. A guy like Punk wouldn't do as much media commitment as Miz did or have the patience to do it and keep a smile without saying something crazy that would affect the company
Del Rio doesn't like Miz either does he? Then again Del Rio doesn't like many people
