Thank you to the @Vinstigator channel for uploading the CM Punk WWE Fox Backstage show episodes on CZcams from which I've used a clip. - Sport
*Name of song used in the video:*
Touch - Mattia Cupelli
These two created something very unusual in wrestling; neither was a heel nor a face. They weren't a "bad guy" and a "good guy". It was the company man every kid wants to grow up to be VS the rebel every teenager wants to grow up to be. One of the finest rivalries in modern wrestling history imo.
Very well said
perfectly stated 👌
It’s kinda like the rock and stone cold where we love em both. I always thought these two put on classics when they worked together.
Couldn't put it any better
@@itssomedonkus5700nah, rock was funny cool badass while Stone cold was hard badass that took no shit.. definitely not similar to Cm punk and Cena dynamic.
“I don’t hate you John. I don’t even dislike you, I really like you. I like you a hell of a lot more than I like most people in the back.”
I actually believed that
Yes The Only Thing He Hated From Cena, Is Cena Always Depend ON MAIN EVENT Scheduling And Me Too....
Its incredible how different hit that line now.....i watched that pipeboom in live
I hate the idea that you’re the best !
*i DO like you
The fact that these two never main evented Wrestlemania is criminal
should’ve been mania 27 main event, both were on the card. would’ve had a banger match, punk gets his wm main event and cena could’ve won and picked the story back up at mitb like they did (bc of timing for his contract). plus they could still prob set up rock vs cena for the next year, would’ve been a great ending. i like miz but he should not be in the main event of wm. i mean cmon, the fucking MIZ??
I could get CM Punk, but not Cena?!
@@NiCoNiCoNiCola cena should have won at mania 27
Cena has 5 main events
@@animesay1393they’re talking about together in a match

Cena vs Punk
oh man........
Oh Yeah!!!@@minge9
and he's back too, punk as cenas final opponent
Thats it thats how we end it and when cena gets inducted into the hall of fame what better person to bring him in than the man who gave us the best matches CM Punk
John Cena/Randy Orton and John Cena/CM Punk. I am unsure which one is his true rival. just like Austin/Rock.
Two GOATs recognizing their greatness. That’s all.
One Goat and One Whiney bitch... I'll let you decide who is who
The goat and cm punk you mean
@@fucker661 bro just wants an argument

You're gonna triggered people wirh your comment. 😂
@@fucker661 bro cm punk turned the whole Wwe around to like him
These 2 had something special and it's been over 10years.. damn
D A Y U M
Indeed
If Anything this falls on Vince and his genius booking using Punks contract shoe horned into a storyline...makes you remember this is the guy that ran the E during the atitude era days...its sad how far hes fallen in terms of creative storytelling
@@edgesucks09 genius? all he did was take something that had happened many times before and make it a kayfabe story instead of a shoot one, not quite "genius" level creative xD
@@JaxDagger happened before? Lol
Those things didn’t just “happen” before; they were also a result of his creative story telling back in the day.
When he referenced the barricade and kiss in his promo i genuinely had tears in my eyes, that's a veteran right there, he could have referenced anything but he referenced cm punk's rivalry and it's probably because after all these years, it's still close to his heart, he must be really proud for laying down for punk that night
ayo?
@@manboss52gaming30😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
That feud helped revitalized John Cena’s career, and more then likely love, for pro wrestling.
That kind of you ❤❤😊😂😂
@@NhBleker What Promo Is That ?
The editor needs a raise for that pause in the middle of "my....best opponent"
Ayeee thanks m8
Pretty cool to see folks notice the *subtle nuances*
That was actually veey nice didnt even realize it was an edit. Very nice sir, u just earnes a sub
I mean, I just assumed he edited it to have Punk seemingly say something he didnt. Is that not the case?
@@Glaedr11 nope. All I did was delay the timing of "best opponent" to match with the ending of the video. Punk did say all those things in a comic con qna video back in 2012-2013
@@subtlenuances bet
Looking back, they were right to showcase Cena and Punk's rivalry in 2K15
Yeah just a shame the game isn't great looking back on it. I tried to replay it recently and the gameplay really holds it back
@@frankroberts3573 yeah same 😅
Agree 💯
you mean 2k16 with stone cold
@Seamus O'Gil if you like it better than 2k19 gameplay I'm happy for you but I personally disagree. Worst thing about 2k19 were the ugly ass menus they were disgusting
"I wanna give you a piledriver John." 😂😂
That match in Houston was to decide who would go on to face rock in what was going to inevitably be John v rock 2. This match to this day is my favorite free television match of the modern era, it’s definitely better than Shawn vs cena on the night after mania too…
@@dunkinrulesbff the promo leading up to it was awesome, I can recall every line to this day
True bromance
Jerry the king Lawler gave Andy Kaufman two Pile drivers in a row, and they’re way more intense than that one. Pile driver used to be a move you saw every week. It’s sad allot of wrestlers got broken necks and CTE so I get it but it’s unwatchable now with no more moves that could even 1% potentially land someone on their head or neck.
@@JayJay-tm7xw yeah but today they do a lot of flips (I hear)..and they have a 20 min show going for 3 hours ( I hear)...
And here he is. Back in WWE. John give him a match of his life
One more time!!! I loved there rivalry this was my generations Rock vs Stone cold
End it like the Austin and Rock rivalry? I'm all for it.
Everyone seems to forget CM Punk carried WWE for a good little while. He'll always be in my top 10 wrestlers for sure
He did the opposite of carrying lol. He was given main event status and Cena stepped away and PPV buys plummeted and they had to bring Cena back to the main event.
@@LungiswaGexaCena stepped away? The MF dominated the main event scene against Show, Kane, and Ace while Punk was on a legendary run. Waffling.
@@ehhhhwassupdoc yeah he did. PPV buys plummeted when he stepped away and he had to be brought back to the main event scene because of that.
@@LungiswaGexa Genius, im telling you the Cena was the main event during that run. HED BE THE REASON TICKET SALES WERE LOW. HE NEVER STEPPED AWAY LMFAO
@@possiblyinsane6995 and yet you "men" went into the shows just to boo him. The chants would be "Let's go Cena, Cena sucks". You would give him more reaction than anyone. When Punk was given main event status, PPV buys were on an all time low, the buildings couldn't be sold out, ratings in the dump, but yeah, you liked Punk.🙄
It always felt like a brotherly relationship between them. Like I can make fun of him, but all of you can’t.
Cena was hell, Punjk was face😅
Cena actually hates him still to this day. That was all for his character.
@@austinjeffries5741 cena doesn’t hate punk
@@austinjeffries5741 you really need to go through google and see their pictures together
Cena did a lot of shenanigans with Punk backstage, that alone says the two had a brotherly bond despite being polar opposites of the industry they're working in
@@YasinAdorCB5 Yeah, all that was before they fell out. Which was way before the "pipebomb"
Both of them are perfect pro wrestlers.
Great Mic skills
Iconic theme songs
And incredible in ring performance.
GOATS
Have u ever seen cena wrestle 😂
@@jeremiahp4605 if cm punk says he can wrestle then what are you
Cena does have some bad punhes but he defo aint bad
@@jeremiahp4605 Cena may not have the technical ability of Bret Hart or AJ Styles, I'm sure we can all agree on that.
But Cena had excellent ring-chemistry with anyone who's anyone. Edge, HBK, Angle, CM Punk, Triple H etc. You don't put on great matches with those guys unless you yourself are a skilled entertainer.
@@giovannireyes9455 HBK could make a cardboard cutout look good lol
And today he has RETURNED.
😭😭🫂🫂🫂🫂
LIKE MUSSOLINI
@@vilelucaand Kennedy
If Cena is going to retire CM Punk is the guy for his final match
No way if anyone it should be randy
sorry to interrupt but that should be randy
It should be Randy or Kurt angle
It should be randy
Randy should be the first choice.
Its a shame we never got more of Punk vs Cena. It really was magic
I think we just about got enough. We don't wanna end up complaining that they had too many matches together like Cena vs Randy.
it was a mania match, punk vs Cena had chemistry
@@TheTalk23I’ve never seen anyone say Randy and John had too many matches. That’s one of the best rivalries ever
@@TheTalk23more so roman vs lesnar
Could happen now. Cena said his last match is coming soon. Cena Vs Punk WM main event would be more of a draw than Booman Reigns vs anyone else.
Cm punk was John cenas joker
No way Edge was Cena's Joker
more like the Penguin, cause Edge was definitely the joker
@@52joker64 Edge was everyone’s joke 🤣
John Cena was not Batman he was never edgy enough for Batman. He was Superman and well the only time Joker messed well id didn't end Well for the Joker or anyone involved.
It was definitely randy orton lol why is people saying edge
This was their modern day “Rock and Austin”. Why they didn’t go that route is beyond me.
I don’t think anyone knew how to really work it. You can say a lot of what punk was saying was a work, but a lot of it was a shoot to. I think it signified a change in the industry that we’re seeing today with more promotions popping up and more independent wrestling becoming bigger than it ever was. Almost like a deconstruction of what Vince created for himself in the 80s when he went out and basically bought out every local seen all over America. It’s a long and complex story that I feel transcended their rivalry into what we’re seeing as modern day wresting today. It’s a weird way of looking at it, but I feel like it’s the only way to look at it. You’ve got Indy talent saying fuck you and all you stand for in cena and then you have Roman reigns saying, I’ll hold this for as long as I want. What we saw 10 years ago isn’t far from what we’re seeing today, but on a much much bigger and grand stage that simply two men could have ever worked or tried to downplay with a wrestlemania moment. They changed wrestling forever.
@@dubla321 so incredibly well said, genuinely couldn’t say it any better myself. Cheers.
[sarcasm]Because Roman Reigns is just that good![/sarcasm]
@@sleepinggorilla i can't tell if this was serious, but roman is one of the wrestlers of all time!
@@ehhhhwassupdoc Yes, he certainly is one of them.
“I didn’t agree with what he had to say , but I found nothing wrong with it” should tell Yhu everything 💯🤧
I honestly thought he hated John Cena only to find out he has the upmost respect for Cena and they're actually good friends. Punks gonna wind up in an episode of Peacemaker
He started his pipebomb with
"I dont hate you john cena"
Utmost not upmost
@@dzangam1879Oh sure...what about the countless dirt sheets and remarks he made online after leaving WWE about Vince, HHH, Dwayne and Cena that was all out of respect as well 🤣
@@edgesucks09 aside from cena he had some “major gripes” with H and Rock, he’s never once beside that one time has thrown dirt on Cena’s name. when he did, it was because he was still riding on the wave of emotion on being fired on his wedding. and everyone got hit, he even stopped talking to kofi because he still worked for the wwe
Yeah
"I don't think they are saying Cena sucks, they are saying CM Punk."-CM Punk
Their friendship was so simple,the get into it a few times,and then they're the nicest people possible to eachother
Now that punks back Im going to need one last feud for them
Seems like something they may attempt in the future, but it probably won't be until Cena's work calendar for acting gigs gets cleared up.
So best case scenario might be sometime after they wrap up the next part of Peacemaker.
You could tell these 2 always respected each other!
Wish there were more interviews with John talking about his best opponents and what is was like to work with them like Punk, Shawn, exc.
Don’t forget edge and orton
When he officially retires I hope he writes an autobiography
@@kijjamburodney3086 he was cena best rival and they were the best friends and respected each other highly
Can't wait for CM Punk and John Cena to reunite now that CM Punk has returned at Survivor Series
Two of the greatest.
This is very heartwarming ❤
The thing about Cena vs Punk is they had the main element to a great feud in that the two were polar opposites of one another in terms of their gimmicks, wrestling styles, physiques, their beliefs and attitudes, etc. Think of all the great feuds throughout WWE history: Rude vs Warrior, Hogan vs Andre, Austin vs. Rock, HBK vs Undertaker, just to name a few. That dichotomy is what makes great storytelling. Its like rainwater mixing with oil: it can either make a huge mess or it can make a beautiful rainbow in the gutter.
bro ❤
They polar opposites Cm Punk is a Scorpio John Cena is a Taurus
Well Put
@@dredayofficialpageits surprising how polar opposites get along and respect each other sometimes in life
@@alittlelazy89 I know I say the same thing I Leo I get along with Aquarius
Honestly two of the greatest these two are. Wish we could see them together again.
I get goosebumps thinking that it's possible these two can have one more match
I think Cena respected Punk for his bluntness and brutal honesty.
These two truly have respect for each other.
the respect between Punk and Cena is commendable
The best thing about this rivalry is that it basically writes itself. They were the exact opposite of one another it was only a matter of time before they butted heads.
Punk & Cena were perfect opponents for each other. It is a shame they never got to have a WrestleMania match.
That raw piledriver match should've been the main event. "Twice in a Lifetime" was lame on so many fronts, both in the build up and in hindsight.
@@leerobbo92 I agree either that or at least a Triple threat if they wanted to have the Rock again.
@@SjC420yh a triple threat made soo much sense
That Feb 25 Raw match when Punk gave Cena a piledriver is one of my all time favorite matches.
This was Naruto Sasuke level rivalry
Underrated rivalry fr
Roman reigns fanboys logic is beating old legends is greatness meanwhile Punk in 2011-2013 had legendary fueds with the Rock,Brock and Cena and to really be honest in those years he was the most loved superstar in the WWE.
u forgot taker
@@samael2469 yep thanks for remembering that
@@like2jo4796 idk if ur a fan but Y2J feud was great also
@@samael2469 am a Cena fan lol
@@samael2469 The promo's during that feud was crazy.The fact Punk let Chris incorporate aspects from his real life including Punk's family's problem's with alcohol and drugs.
They got huge amounts of respect for each other
This should be John's farewell match. Punk or Orton.
Cena was a man who cared for his friends and showed no fear to Vince when he wanted to say something Cena will always be the GOAT
Cena vs Punk feud was my childhood. No matter how you feel about either of them you gotta admit they created some memorable moments in wrestling history that’ll never be forgotten.
Same...this video brought back so many childhood memories❤
Punk himself said in that pipebomb that he liked cena...he just hated the fact that he was the face of the company
Cena doesn’t want to either. John Wanted to be Heel in 2011 but WWE needs a superhero dude for the kids for marketing purposes.
Yeah, Cena was just collateral damage to what WWE wanted. There is no reason for Punk to even hate Cena, in fact, Cena was one of those who fought hard for Punk to not be sactioned after the pipebomb.
@@cinderburn2660 Cena knew that Punk wanted to both make wrestling feel more real again, air out his frustrations to the crowd to boost himself as the 'voice of the people', and also Cena knew that him doing that pipebomb was gonna make huge money. Money WWE wasnt really making since the PG Era began
@@woobgamer5210 Instead of spouting nonsense based on mere speculation. A mere google search would give you actual facts.
Pipe bomb was dropped june 2011.
WWE ratings actually was on the rise from 2009-2011.
Ratings stagnated from after the pipebomb 2011 to 2014
Ratings started rising again in late 2014 AFTER Punk left.
So where is the part where pipebomb and punk helped WWE? In fact, it could be correlated that the pipebomb stalled wwe growth.
@@cinderburn2660 CLOWN
I love his homeage to Cena in the AEW ring❤
If CM Punk comes back to WWE then i hope they have John Cena VS CM Punk one more time
Both punk and cena were in their prime.. this to me was the best feud in WWE history. Both smart and knew the business .. they also respected each other and knew how to extract the best out of each other as well. They legitimately drew money, heat, everything you would want in a rivalry.
Not the greatest rivalry, Shawn Michael Vs Bret, Kane vs Undertaker, Edge vs John Cena, stone cold vs The rock etc
Hopefully, one day, Punk and the WWE make amends, and have Punk and Cena main event WrestleMania as their retirement match. It's about damn time Punk gets his WrestleMania main event.
I'm hoping they'd get a Shawn Michaels - Rick Flair Wrestlemania Match...
@@HarmonyEdgequestion is though.
Is it the last match for Cena? For Punk? Or both?
Your wish has been granted.
How are you feeling now? Feel free to share lotto numbers lol
The CenaPunk rivalry was so damn good that we still talk about it 12 years later
Thank you brother for making this video I thought that I'm the only one who realized how much Phil and John like each other ❤
Yes I always thought he hated Cena as much as HHH
That match they had on that raw in Houston was fucking epic. I struggle to watch raw but I was glued to my TV for that match.
One of my favourite matches, i couldnt believe how good it was for a free match on Raw
That ending give me chills. Great edit.
Cena and Taker are two of the most respected wrestlers in today’s world.
two of the greatest of all time.
I don't think so. CM Punk doesn't touch the greats, not even close.
so there are 158 marks who sees phil and cena as the greatest.
Maybe the greatest in politicking sure
@@zane4575how?Cm punk carried wwe for a long time and was the biggest merchandise seller and draw AEW had every had
*You know these days we are so divided!!!!...but that quote was so Profound!!!
" You know I didn't agree with what he had to say ...but I found nothing wrong with it!!!"♥Beautiful*
Now theres a chance for 1 last match😢
The respect these two have for each order is amazing.
This is 2 of the greatest of their generation that have a tremendous amount of respect for each other
This hit me man, I was 8 when they first started feuding and man was it great watching them leading up to money in the bank, I’ve never been more invested in wrestling than the summer of punk and his 462 day reign as champ
Would never forget the GOAT rivalry between these two 2011-2013 what a time it was 😢❤
Cm Punk 434 days a wwe champion was awesome
CM Punk and John Cena easily saved WWE.
You don't how true you where it was so stale at that time edge had just retired aswell once that pipe bomb happen everything changed and got better again.
@@christophermccoy5252he’s back bro. The true fans never gave up. I just wish it was when Cena was still around. Hopefully we get one last Houston-esque match from them.
That edit looks like a trailer for Cena n Punk's upcoming documentary .
Two goats of WWE CM PUNK and JOHN CENA is very loveable and memorable characters 😢 when i was a child the only reason to watch wwe is this two guys everything is good when it turns to memory 😢😢
Well that's the thing. They aren't characters. What you see is what you get. Those guys aren't fake. Which is why they get mixed reactions.
I think John Cena vs. CM Punk was the best rivalry of either of their careers.
What I loved about John Cenas rivalry’s as that he could feud with other babyfaces because he always got mixed reception from the crowds.
Both brought the best out of eachother. Loved this rivalry
This is an excellent edit
Thanks m8
I remember watching CM Punk win the championship off of Cena at MiTB in Chicago, I was 8 years old. Core memory instantly. Words cannot describe the chills that match gave everyone who had the honor to watch it. My favorite match ever.
John seems to be a good guy and CM Punk a genuine guy and that gave them great chemistry
Two of my all time favorites. Both know how to work a crowd, both know each other in and out.
John Cena vs CM Punk for the one last time at Wrestlemania will be the most hyped match of all time.
I seen this video before. And it made me teary eyed. Months later...it still makes me teary eyed.
Cena has granted more ‘Make a Wish’ requests than ANYONE. I find it cool that he gave CM a chance to make a wish.
When was that and what was the wish?
@@LungiswaGexa the wish was for to fight Cena before he retired. Cena gave him that opportunity!
I’ll find the date for you
@@ssgta8082 I see. Please do
Thank you for making this video. You brought back so many memories. Thank you
I'm glad you liked it, you're welcome
CM PUNK IS BACK
Theres a chance to make everything right now. Cena vs Punk at WrestleMania. Do it.
If he comes back, this match could be his last and I’d be just fine
Imagine John And Punk as a tag team.. 🥶🥶❤
Welcome home, Phil.
And now his back in the wwe 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Cant believe he returned...😱
They definitely could have headlined mania.
After the Chicago match, they definitely could have found a way to stretch that all the way through the year for wrestlemania 28 if only they hadn't already booked rocky/cena an entire year in advance
It was one of the best rivalries WWE had since the rock and Austin. You could just put these two guys together over and over and over again and it was always good.
And He's here now 🔥
Survivor Series 2023 😈
Best rivalry i grew up with.
Two legends the goats of business...... Respect your opponent..... That brings out best of you......that's the life.....
Literal goosebumps/ chills on my skull watching this😂
That was a legendary feud between them. These guys fought for the generations. If that could happen again, I would die happy.
Punk is finally back in WWE 😎
Cena and CM Punk was Iconic 🎉❤
Cm punk❤
Their storied paths made for 2 very different styles that just made a feud so easy and relatable. They both were fantastic together, probably had the best matches together too.
At first I thought these 2s hated each other but the love they got for each other is unmatched.
These 2 were magic
This is so heartwarming how much respect Cena & Punk have for each other
We need that wrestlemania main event between Cm punk and John cena. Maybe the greatest retirement match for the legend.
Love both these guys. They always seemed to be good friends and had the utmost respect for one another. Two GOAT'S ❤🐐🐐
Also the one person on the wwe roster that never took shots at punk after he quit was John Cena. Never had a bad word to say about Punk and vice versa with Punk
The fact john let cm pile driver says he trusts the man with his life. The ultimate respect for one another
