Wherever I am, I think it’s my show.
Planning stuff out sucks. If you plan stuff out, you wind up talking in a very monotonous, unnatural way.
All your heroes are dead! I killed them!
He spilled my diet soda!
I’m not Superman. Eventually, the grind gets to you. If you’re away from your friends, you’re not traveling with anyone you like, and you’re doing stuff that doesn’t creatively stimulate you, that’s when it becomes a job.
I’m a very goal-oriented person.
Do I want an ice cream bar with my name on it? You’re DAMN right!
I like all kinds of wrestling, I like pro wrestling, so if there’s a guy I’ve been feuding with for over a year, and damn it, the only thing left to do is beat the crap out of each other in a steel cage, then it’s time to do it.
A whole bunch of people told me that if I went to WWE, I’d never make it. But it’s like I never heard them. I never listened. To me, I’m exactly where I belong. I feel like I was born to do this. Whatever your walk in life is, you pick what you want to be, then go ahead and be the best one.
I will kick you in the nuts and you will smile and like it.
Fix him so I can break him again!
I’m straight edge, and that means I’m better than you.
It’s a good time to be CM Punk right now.
I’m not the kind of guy that really thinks I’m a celebrity or feels that I’m important or anything like that.
I’m a living, breathing example of someone who does the same exact thing, but drugs and alcohol just aren’t a part of who I am.
Pro wrestling has always been ingrained into American culture. It was one of the first things that was ever on television, so everybody watched it.
I don’t like having debts. I don’t like buying anything that I can’t buy in cash.
Where, oh, where are my WWE ice cream bars?!
For some reason, talking is easy for me. Practice does make perfect; I’ve been doing it for a while. Being out there in a high-pressure situation with a live audience and a live TV camera on you, it brings something out. It’s very organic.
People like to come up to me and tell me that I’ve got nice ink. Except these tattoos aren’t just decorations. They are declarations. Every tattoo I have tells its own story about who I am. Drug-free. Honor. And a war against the system.
