It’s pretty obvious why this wallpaper is here right now. In case you’re unsure, it’s because CM Punk sent the shockwave of a magnitude 9 earthquake through not only WWE, but pro-wrestling itself with his groundbreaking closing segment of Raw this past Monday. CM Punk now has what only a select few have in the business, and that’s a defining moment. Just like Stone Cold had his “Austin 3:16” speech that sparked an era and made him the biggest, baddest sonffabitch on the planet, CM Punk’s revolutionary-like promo has turned him into a certified legend.
“The only thing that’s real is me, and the fact that day in and day out, for almost six years, I’ve proved to everybody in the world that I am the best on this microphone, in that ring, and even on commentary. Nobody can touch me.” ~ CM Punk
WWE Magazine said on Twitter that the atmosphere backstage is ‘edgy‘. And why wouldn’t it be? CM Punk called out a lot of people that night, and I’m sure there are tons more who hate his guts now. Which is awesome for Punk because I’m pretty sure the man feeds off the attention and the energy and walks like a very real, very dangerous, very vocal threat in the locker room. Despite the fact that he lashed out at the fans who cheer for him as well, all I’ve been chanting since Monday is “This is awesome!“.
The best part about this whole angle is that whatever Punk said was not scripted. Nothing was set-up. He went out there and verbally killed a dozen people before WWE shut him off. Things like this never happen, not in WWE. So when it does, and when it happens thanks to CM Punk, I just can’t help but mark-out.
This wallpaper was made because it had to be made, right now! There’s just no better time. It’s as direct to the face as Punk is. It says very clearly that Punk is “The Best Wrestler In The World“. You’ll also find familiar ‘faces’ in the wallpaper who have fallen victim to Punk’s whip-of-words. If or not you like CM Punk is irrelevant, because this wallpaper isn’t just for Punk, it’s one for history being made in WWE. Punk raised the bar for controversy last Monday. Whether or not there are those who dare follow in his lead is something we’re going to have to wait and see. Always remember what CM Punk did on Monday night, because people are going to be talking about it for a very, very long time. Download and enjoy, all!
