shouldnt CM punk be getting world title shots?
ok so hes worked his butt off in the indys, hes been on TNA, ROH and OVW, he comes to WWE and works his butt off in ECW. he shows massive popularity, hes extremely talented, but hes wasting away. he wins money in the bank and when he won the world title it seems like they were only doing it to bring a title back over to raw instead of using this as the perfect oppertunity to put new talent into the world title picture.
so i ask you to give me reasoning for why CM punk shouldnt be in the world title picture

Personally,I like CM Punk and I agree with you,his talent that he's shown in ROH and TNA as well as OVW are more than enough to earn him a title shot or two.From my opinion,he was the face of ECW after most of the ECW Originals left.His push for the World Heavyweight Championship was also a cheap excuse to bring the title back to RAW.The creative team could've also made his reign better.
RAW-Wins the Title
The Great American Bash-CM Punk Def. Batista by DQ (WTF???)
Summerslam-CM Punk Def. JBL(Pretty Boring Match)
Unforgiven-Loses the Title to Jericho in a match that he wasn't even in.
RAW-Fails to win back the title in a horrible steel cage match.
So CM Punk basically had a bad title reign,though it wasn't really his fault.However, I don't think that CM Punk or Kofi Kingston should've been moved from ECW to RAW,they have experience and talent,but should've had more time to prepare before going to RAW.But you have to see the other side of this though,Y2J wasn't World Champion since he left the WWE which was a long time,then became Intercontinental Champion,so I feel that he deserved the Title more than CM Punk.Y2J also has more experience in wrestling,and has better Mic skills than Punk.Why they let Batista win the title at Cyber Sunday and keep it for a week is beyond me.CM Punk has talent, but look at a guy like John Morrison for example,Morrison has many titles reigns in his record but didn't become a world champion until he won the ECW Championship from CM Punk,which was supposed to be Benoit's push, so had Benoit not passed away,Morrison would still be wasted.While CM Punk goes and wins the WHC.I don't think that it was too fair for alot of other guys like Matt Hardy,Jeff Hardy,Mr. Kennedy,hleton Benjamin,who have put more time and dedication to wrestling yet only Matt has had a world championship.CM Punk is now a Tag Team Champ and should'nt have anymore world title shots for now,but surely in the future.Good Question, *starred*
Source(s): Undertaker and HBK for Champs!!! - 1 decade ago
In all honesty, i think the reason why they have not given him the push he deserves is because they think that having HHH as champ for 50 million years or having the WHC go through 3 hands, one by one, is what the fans want. And although those 4 guys are the most popular superstars they have, if they want to be a successful corporation now and in the future, they have to start giving the title to people that deserve it. In life, you work hard to achieve success. If you don't reach it, then you work even harder. I honestly believe that CM Punk is a fan favorite because of his tenacity, his courage, and his non-stop motor, always keep working. He isn't flashy. He isn't a crybaby like Jericho. When he was WHC, you saw that he had good mic skills, and never backed down from anyone. He treated it with respect. Those are the type of guys that should be champ. Jericho should never touch championship gold again. His antics on the mic, and in the locker room, is quite frankly, obnoxious. He shows no respect to anybody. Period.

He Wasn't Pushed To The Best Of His Talent.
Other then that there really is no reason why he shouldn't be getting more World Title Shots Cm Punk like you said is one of the most underrated and talent wrestlers in the WWE and i agree with everything you said he should be getting more shots at the WHC he went in there and proved himself he worked his way up from the mid-card and he's a fresh face to the World Title Picture i really dont get it? Punk could have been a great champion the first time around if the WWE put him in the ring with the right people like Jericho Mysterio or HBK people he could have great matches with but the WWE displayed him as a fluke champion and put him in the ring with the wrong people like Batista and JBL which is why he failed to get over as the WHC that's the WWE's Fault not his but it really pisses me off how they can waste somebody with the talent and skill of Cm Punk like i said he could have gotten over if the WWE put him in the ring with the right people and let him do what he does best WRESTLE! but the WWE probably isn't pushing him because he didn't get over but that's there fault for not pushing him the right way so he could get over.

Because they have pushed him to much as it is, People complained about Cena but at least he doesn't hold about 50 titles one by one, Nothing against CM Punk...But i don't know why they had him go from ECW Champion, To winning Money In The Bank, To World Heavyweight champion, To World Tag Team Champion, They need to keep him at Mid Carder for a while.

Why not? Cena does. Batista did. Triple H does. Stone Cold did. The Rock did. Why shouldn't the Undertaker? That's what it means to be a "main-eventer". You're always in the title scene.

no!!! the fact that he has had the world heavyweight title is a big shame. the fact that he won money in the bank at all is a waist of a title shot. the fact that cm punk had the world title and ppl that deserve it like JEFF HARDY!!! and edge still have not is a shame!!

ill tell you exactly why its b/c punk isnt as good as half of the raw roster.
orton is the top wrestler on raw and should have the title already they should just give him the title b/c he deserves it more.
roidtista and wanna bee raper dont deserve to even be in the main event picture yet there in it more then anyone.

He isn't really all that good. He may be a hard worker, but he isn't ready for a long run with a big title quite yet. Give it a few more years, and maybe he'll be ready.
