Alberto Del Rio was one of the least over world champs of all time. He is pretty useless and it wouldn't be good to have Paige and him around each other.
CM Punk as a Wrestlemania or Summerslam one or two shot wouldn't be bad as long as he is there to put someone over. He'd kind of become what he always hated if he did a part-time role, though. It would be a bit hypocritical.

Punk v. Alberto is the MMA match that we need. Make it happen UFC Bellator Combate Americas Brawl For All 2 Surely Alberto would kill him? Of course. Alberto actually has high level wrestling skill. Poor Punk.

If it's because of the clap back at the Miz, I kinda get it with Punk.
Miz took a minor shot at the guy and Punk just pistol whipped him in response...

He’s right about both - Punk isn’t worth the trouble at this stage (and I like him), and Del Rio isn’t worth a damn thing in any circumstances.

I would sooner have Ricardo back then Alberto I'd take Ricardo over Del Rio or Punk at this point. The fans genuinely loved him, would be great to have him back.

I'm just glad it specified that someone wanted to bring Punk back and Vince said no, while nobody wants to bring Del Rio back and he's just lying about talks the same way he lied about ghost hobos in Texas. There's definitely a case to be made for Punk and people who would be reinvigorated if he came back. Alberto needs to never come back ever.

Poor Punk. He's probably sad at home seeing how the WM card crumbles....

Like. I get why Punk has his fans.
But dude is such an obviously miserable person and is firmly in the “I’ll only wrestle for the money and nothing else” mode. What’s the appeal?

I'd rather not see CM Punk work in todays shitty and stale WWE, if he wants to comeback do it somewhere where you won't be wasted 5 minutes in.

Honestly don't believe for a minute that a company guy like Rollins would have spent several weeks trying to set up a Wrestlemania program with Punk the way he did if it was known that Vince wanted no part of Punk coming back.

If it were anyone else not wanting them I'd get it, but Vince? Dude, you just put the title on Goldberg in 2020. Don't act like you're above CM Punk.

The work that he does as a wrestling character, regardless of his motivations? Really confused, the answer what the appeal is is also why he has his fans.

It used to be his mic skills, charisma and veneer of passion for wrestling and what was best for it, these days.. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I don't think ADR would have anything to offer but someone of Punk's abilities should be in a major promotion.
He'll never admit it but I do wonder if Punk regrets quitting the business for so long in his peak years that he'll never get back. Not saying he wasn't right to walk away when he did but he stepped away when he was 35. By today's standards he isn't over the hill at 41 but being that good and having your last match at 35, when he reflects on that it has to hurt.

When he clearly doesn’t care anymore and is more and more outwardly miserable? I know I wouldn’t want to see a guy phoning it in while being miserable.

I think whatever chances of Punk being an option in the short term was obliterated by that Miz tweet.
