I'm sure this has been brought up a ton of times before but I've found this site that says in an interview at an AIDS conference that he told the crowd that the "CM" stands for Cookie Master. The exact address is http://www.wrestlezone.com/article.php?articleid=199502441 I don't know how reliable you all would consider this site though. I just figured I could try and help out. Stillboy2191 ( talk) 04:26, 13 December 2007 (UTC)
This article has him tagged under the American atheists category, i can find nothing that says he is an atheist. Somebody needs to find a source or remove him from the category
what did he say in the shoot interview about being athiest. I remember seeing him point to heaven after the whole chris benoit tragedy when he won th enumbe rone contender so I really dont know anymore. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Malone89 ( talk • contribs) 06:48, 4 February 2009 (UTC)

The lead was changed, referring to straight edge as "a lifestyle he follows in real life" to "a lifestyle he claims to follow in real life" a little over a month ago by an anon with no edit summary. Suggesting that he simply pays lip service to straight edge is highly contentious and needs to be sourced. The source that follows the statement was unchanged by the edit. Either this statement needs to be changed or, if there is indeed evidence that Punk is not really straight edge, it should be added and sourced like crazy. I don't follow wrestling as closely as I used to, so maybe it's out there, but it's not in the article. Remember folks, this is a BLP. Nosleep break my slumber 04:47, 1 September 2009 (UTC)
To whom it may concern,
In the section of this article WWE Champion article states (Punk appeared at July 23's All American Wrestling show, showing respect to Gregory Iron, a wrestler who had overcome cerebral palsy) Sorry put this needs too be edited you never overcome cerebral palsy i know first hand i have had cerebral palsy sinse birth and the disability you never overcome. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.128.172.157 ( talk) 18:44, 26 July 2011 (UTC)
Agreed, it should be changed to better reflect how Gregory Iron has succeeded at becoming a wrestler while living with the disability, not "overcoming" it. -- FLStyle ( talk) 21:09, 27 July 2011 (UTC)
Disagree. If you manage to still live your life and follow what you want to do despite having cerebral palsy you have indeed overcome it, such as people do all the time with other various aliments and issues. With all due respect to the above, just because you have cerebral palsy does not mean you can and do speak for others with it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.205.57.121 ( talk) 11:19, 26 March 2012 (UTC)

@ InedibleHulk: and @ Shrine Maiden: - what's going on here? Maiden admits There's not much to write about his "MMA career" now anyway - and we have three whole paragraphs - what? Doesn't matter who challenged him unless there's a scheduled fight. Criticism of UFC is for the UFC article. It's not for Punk's. We need to cut these unneeded speculation and irrelevant information - the "week-by-week" as you know it, Hulk. I've hidden the extra stuff pending starship .paint ~ regal 09:52, 7 December 2014 (UTC)
First, let me state - WP:BLP applies to CM Punk. The burden of evidence rests with the editor who adds or restores material. - the burden of proof is on those who wish to retain, restore, or undelete the disputed material. - If it is to be restored without significant change, consensus must be obtained first. In this case, @ Shrine Maiden: is adding the information.
This is wrongly mentioned as if the film title rather than franchise. Per http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2948202/ I think we should red-link:

Can we confirm whether or not Punk still operates the @CMPunk handle? When I checked out https://twitter.com/CMPunk today it says "Coach" and shows some hockey guy.
It's retweeting a bunch of Chicago Black Hawks and Thor stuff so it seems like him, but it's odd that it doesn't show him or anything...
Is it possible he can't use his WWE-related images or something? Still no UFC background... odd. Ranze ( talk) 06:50, 26 January 2015 (UTC)
Relating to the recent lawsuit, wondering if we can verify whether https://twitter.com/wwedocamann belongs to Chris Amann or not, in case he makes (or made) statements relating to it. Ranze ( talk) 02:48, 23 February 2015 (UTC)
Next to Reference 276--CM Punk is training with (now) FORMER UFC Lightweight Champion Anthony Pettis. Citation: http://www.ufc.com/fighter/Anthony-Pettis — Preceding unsigned comment added by 206.194.127.242 ( talk) 20:00, 30 March 2015 (UTC)
I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of CM Punk's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.
Reference named "OWOW":
I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT ⚡ 17:42, 6 April 2015 (UTC)
I am planning to submit this article for a featured article review. Its prose is good but its references, as indicated in the post about orphaned links above, is totally below standard. The reference formatting is inconsistent are there are many bare and broken links. This would be significant task to resolve but I must point it out under the FA review procedure. JJARichardson ( talk) 16:19, 23 April 2015 (UTC)
According to Rolling Stone, he eats "Asian salad with grilled chicken" so he is no longer pescetarian. 108.94.155.69 ( talk) 14:04, 12 August 2015 (UTC)
The MRSA initialism won't come up if someone is searching "staph" in the article. Would it be okay to spell out Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus in full once before abbreviating it?
Also we should keep the mention of AJ's doctor in here since his alleged diagnosis is critical to the accusation. Ranze ( talk) 07:32, 20 October 2015 (UTC)

Extremely easy. In the beginning it would be much more accurate to list this gentlemen's other professions first since and then list Mixed Martial Artist, or add the word "aspiring" at the front of Mixed Martial Artist as he made this announcement a long time ago and has yet to fight. It is also listed as doubtful that he will ever fight. It's not a big thing, but this guy is a pro wrestler who made a big announcement he would fight in the UFC and in two years can't make an entry level fight. 99% of the world doesn't care, but it is an insult to any UFC fighter that he is listed as a Mixed Martial Artist first under his description. Thank you for your time.

Okay. So in the "Early career and IWA Mid-South (1999–2005)" section's second paragraph, it has a list of people CM Punk worked with early. One of those people is listed as "Dave PrazakDave Prazak", maybe an attempt to make his name a link. Since that guy doesn't have a Wikipedia article, just removing that middle word should fix this problem. So would someone please do that?

I really feel like this should be covered, but I do not know the best way to word it. Basically he came out during a tiny independent show in a mask. Not 101% confirmed it was him, but he was in the same town wearing the same distinct sweater at two locations. It is all covered in the article I linked. One of the people that trained him was involved in the show as well. I feel like this forsure passes WP:N for inclusion. 1) first time doing anything physical in the ring since WWE and 2) surely enough coverage exists to indicate importance. StaticVapor message me! 09:41, 21 April 2019 (UTC)
We currently have three paragraphs of odds and ends around the fight, but one sentence about the fight itself (which just relays the table). I've tried a few ways, but nothing gets through.
If someone else finds this omission weird, maybe you can phrase it better than I did. Lots of two-minute fights end by RNC, but a blowout like that is rare. James Toney's article at least mentions how quickly the takedown happened. InedibleHulk (talk) 01:09, 24 September 2016 (UTC)
In light of his return to WWE-related programming and in the interest of aesthetically-pleasing content, I personally believe that the lead paragraph should look like this:
Phillip Jack Brooks [1] (born October 26, 1978), much better known by the ring name CM Punk, is an American professional wrestling analyst, retired professional wrestler, mixed martial artist and comic book writer. In professional wrestling, he is currently an analyst on WWE Backstage, a television show on Fox Sports 1 (FS1). In mixed martial arts, he is currently signed to both the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC), where he competes in the welterweight division, and to Cage Fury Fighting Championships (CFFC), where he works as a commentator. He is perhaps best known for his time in WWE as a wrestler, where his 434-day WWE Championship reign (lasting from November 20, 2011 to January 23, 2013) stands as the longest of the 2010s, as well as the sixth longest in history.

He is a well known fan of the Chicago Bears, Cubs, Blackhawks, and Bulls. He can often be seen wearing a Cubs hat.
He has either 2 or 3 surrogate sisters and is known to not have any contact with his biological family since he was a teen. He calls his friend Chez his sister and her mom his mom. Another sister of his is his "little sister Shaylene" referenced when trash talking Kevin Nash on Raw in Sugust 2011. His family attended extreme rules 2012 in Chicago.
Colt Canana is his best friend and Punk says that he considers him his brother. Kofi Kingston is his "road wife" and travels with him on the wwe tour.
He has stated that he believes TNA to be an indie league. He says his favorite comic book hero is batman because he thinks he is the most relatable.
He is real life friends with WWE superstars Kofi Kingston, The Miz, Zack Ryder, Edge, and Sheamus, as well as Divas Maryse Oulette, AJ Lee, Beth Pheonix, and Eve Torres, along with her fiancé Renner Gracie, son of the UFC founder and owner Rorion Gracie. He refers to Eve as Steve and Maryse as Maurice.
He is well known for his sarcastic nature in interviews. He has appeared at Comic Con in 2011 and 2012.
Punk has stated that he never wanted to be anything other than a professional wrestler. His dream Autitude Era opponent is Stone Cold Steve Austin. He says his favorite wrestlers in childhood were "Macho Man" Randy Savage, "Rowdy" Roddy Piper, Austin, and HBK Shawn Michaels.

In the section of this article WWE Champion article states (Punk appeared at July 23's All American Wrestling show, showing respect to Gregory Iron, a wrestler who had overcome cerebral palsy) Sorry put this needs too be edited you never overcome cerebral palsy i know first hand i have had cerebral palsy sinse birth and the disability you never overcome. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.128.172.157 ( talk) 18:44, 26 July 2011 (UTC)
Agreed, it should be changed to better reflect how Gregory Iron has succeeded at becoming a wrestler while living with the disability, not "overcoming" it. -- FLStyle ( talk) 21:09, 27 July 2011 (UTC)
Disagree. If you manage to still live your life and follow what you want to do despite having cerebral palsy you have indeed overcome it, such as people do all the time with other various aliments and issues. With all due respect to the above, just because you have cerebral palsy does not mean you can and do speak for others with it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.205.57.121 ( talk) 11:19, 26 March 2012 (UTC)

@ InedibleHulk: and @ Shrine Maiden: - what's going on here? Maiden admits There's not much to write about his "MMA career" now anyway - and we have three whole paragraphs - what? Doesn't matter who challenged him unless there's a scheduled fight. Criticism of UFC is for the UFC article. It's not for Punk's. We need to cut these unneeded speculation and irrelevant information - the "week-by-week" as you know it, Hulk. I've hidden the extra stuff pending starship .paint ~ regal 09:52, 7 December 2014 (UTC)
First, let me state - WP:BLP applies to CM Punk. The burden of evidence rests with the editor who adds or restores material. - the burden of proof is on those who wish to retain, restore, or undelete the disputed material. - If it is to be restored without significant change, consensus must be obtained first. In this case, @ Shrine Maiden: is adding the information.
This is wrongly mentioned as if the film title rather than franchise. Per http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2948202/ I think we should red-link:

Can we confirm whether or not Punk still operates the @CMPunk handle? When I checked out https://twitter.com/CMPunk today it says "Coach" and shows some hockey guy.
It's retweeting a bunch of Chicago Black Hawks and Thor stuff so it seems like him, but it's odd that it doesn't show him or anything...
Is it possible he can't use his WWE-related images or something? Still no UFC background... odd. Ranze ( talk) 06:50, 26 January 2015 (UTC)

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of CM Punk's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.
Reference named "OWOW":
I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT ⚡ 17:42, 6 April 2015 (UTC)
I am planning to submit this article for a featured article review. Its prose is good but its references, as indicated in the post about orphaned links above, is totally below standard. The reference formatting is inconsistent are there are many bare and broken links. This would be significant task to resolve but I must point it out under the FA review procedure.

Also we should keep the mention of AJ's doctor in here since his alleged diagnosis is critical to the accusation. Ranze ( talk) 07:32, 20 October 2015 (UTC)

Extremely easy. In the beginning it would be much more accurate to list this gentlemen's other professions first since and then list Mixed Martial Artist, or add the word "aspiring" at the front of Mixed Martial Artist as he made this announcement a long time ago and has yet to fight. It is also listed as doubtful that he will ever fight. It's not a big thing, but this guy is a pro wrestler who made a big announcement he would fight in the UFC and in two years can't make an entry level fight. 99% of the world doesn't care, but it is an insult to any UFC fighter that he is listed as a Mixed Martial Artist first under his description. Thank you for your time.

Okay. So in the "Early career and IWA Mid-South (1999–2005)" section's second paragraph, it has a list of people CM Punk worked with early. One of those people is listed as "Dave PrazakDave Prazak", maybe an attempt to make his name a link. Since that guy doesn't have a Wikipedia article, just removing that middle word should fix this problem. So would someone please do that?

I really feel like this should be covered, but I do not know the best way to word it. Basically he came out during a tiny independent show in a mask. Not 101% confirmed it was him, but he was in the same town wearing the same distinct sweater at two locations. It is all covered in the article I linked. One of the people that trained him was involved in the show as well. I feel like this forsure passes WP:N for inclusion. 1) first time doing anything physical in the ring since WWE and 2) surely enough coverage exists to indicate importance. StaticVapor message me! 09:41, 21 April 2019 (UTC)
We currently have three paragraphs of odds and ends around the fight, but one sentence about the fight itself (which just relays the table). I've tried a few ways, but nothing gets through.
If someone else finds this omission weird, maybe you can phrase it better than I did. Lots of two-minute fights end by RNC, but a blowout like that is rare. James Toney's article at least mentions how quickly the takedown happened. InedibleHulk (talk) 01:09, 24 September 2016 (UTC)
In light of his return to WWE-related programming and in the interest of aesthetically-pleasing content, I personally believe that the lead paragraph should look like this:
Phillip Jack Brooks [1] (born October 26, 1978), much better known by the ring name CM Punk, is an American professional wrestling analyst, retired professional wrestler, mixed martial artist and comic book writer. In professional wrestling, he is currently an analyst on WWE Backstage, a television show on Fox Sports 1 (FS1). In mixed martial arts, he is currently signed to both the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC), where he competes in the welterweight division, and to Cage Fury Fighting Championships (CFFC), where he works as a commentator. He is perhaps best known for his time in WWE as a wrestler, where his 434-day WWE Championship reign (lasting from November 20, 2011 to January 23, 2013) stands as the longest of the 2010s, as well as the sixth longest in history.

He is a well known fan of the Chicago Bears, Cubs, Blackhawks, and Bulls. He can often be seen wearing a Cubs hat.
He has either 2 or 3 surrogate sisters and is known to not have any contact with his biological family since he was a teen. He calls his friend Chez his sister and her mom his mom. Another sister of his is his "little sister Shaylene" referenced when trash talking Kevin Nash on Raw in Sugust 2011. His family attended extreme rules 2012 in Chicago.
Colt Canana is his best friend and Punk says that he considers him his brother. Kofi Kingston is his "road wife" and travels with him on the wwe tour.
He has stated that he believes TNA to be an indie league. He says his favorite comic book hero is batman because he thinks he is the most relatable.
He is real life friends with WWE superstars Kofi Kingston, The Miz, Zack Ryder, Edge, and Sheamus, as well as Divas Maryse Oulette, AJ Lee, Beth Pheonix, and Eve Torres, along with her fiancé Renner Gracie, son of the UFC founder and owner Rorion Gracie. He refers to Eve as Steve and Maryse as Maurice.
He is well known for his sarcastic nature in interviews. He has appeared at Comic Con in 2011 and 2012.
Punk has stated that he never wanted to be anything other than a professional wrestler. His dream Autitude Era opponent is Stone Cold Steve Austin. He says his favorite wrestlers in childhood were "Macho Man" Randy Savage, "Rowdy" Roddy Piper, Austin, and HBK Shawn Michaels.
