Former WWE wrestler CM Punk has revealed his true motivations for leaving wrestling in an explosive new interview with Colt Cabana. Over the course of the nearly 2-hour interview, Punk, real name Phil Brooks, discusses everything from having being pressured to work injured, incompetence from the on-staff doctor, and his discontent with being consistently passed over for main events. It’s an eye-opening look behind the scenes at the entertainment juggernaut.
Listen to the full interview below.
Since officially breaking with the WWE on his wedding day in June of 2014, and wrapping up the final legal settlement with the WWE thereafter, Brooks has been working on a number of charitable projects and as a writer for Marvel Comics.
