CM Punk Speculation

I apologize to those who don’t care to hear about CM Punk anymore. I have a unique theory that might generate thought/discussion to those who are interested. Let’s first start by examining the few facts that we know.



-We haven’t seen CM Punk since the Royal Rumble.

-No official word has been given on the situation.

-No lawsuits are involved.

-Nobody seems to know anything about the situation.

-CM Punk was in bad shape physically (body is beaten up).

-CM Punk proposed to AJ Lee and they’re getting married next month. All of this occurred within a few months of each other.

-We’ve heard word from Stephanie McMahon that he quit. We have had his name taken off television. Etc.

-AJ Lee left television for an extended period of time as well.

-CM Punk has been living a lot of life lately. A lot of Hockey games, saw an MMA fight, etc.



Okay there are probably other facts as well but here’s what has popped into my head recently. What if he didn’t quit. What if this “sabbatical” is just that, an actual sabbatical. What would be the cause? Illness such as cancer, physical injury, psychological illness, etc. I find it quite strange that AJ Lee would take off this much time for a wedding. She left after the biggest event of her career too. She basically did what she needed to do then took her ball home so to speak as well. We haven’t heard about her either. Brie Bella and D-Bry did not do this for their wedding. Their wrestling careers barely skipped a beat for their wedding. This leads me to believe that there is more going on with CM Punk than just a wedding and him quitting. Maybe he had a mental break-down? Maybe he injured his body and is healing? He could be battling an illness (Cancer, MS, something serious) for all we know?



To address the criticism that he has been going out way too much and doing way too much for someone who is ill, that further supports my point. He is living quite a bit of life. When I work long hours, which is basically every week I’m putting in 80+ hours, I don’t travel to a bunch of places when I have a few months off. I usually rest, rest, rest. He’s enjoying quite a bit of life, like somebody would that may have received bad news. After working in Oncology for many years. I see patients that go through chemo and they look sick. When they leave the hospital, they are a live wire. I'm not suggesting that Punk is going through Chemo, I'm just saying that sickness wouldn't preclude him from living his life unless he is near the end point of the sickness or he's crippled. If he's battling and beating an illness, he would be perfectly capable of doing what he's doing.



Does CM Punk have enough money to retire? Perhaps, but not at the life style he is living. If his net worth is estimated at 8 million, he should be fine to live an above average life. However, he won’t be without a worry for the rest of his life. He’s merely in his 30’s. If he lives until his 80’s, 8 million needs to last him over 40 years! That is approximately 200,000 per year. In his house, with a wife, with potential children, with his current life style, is that sustainable? WWE employees don’t get health care when they retire so that’s another factor to consider. How well off is he really? It is doubtful he would merely walk away from a job paying him the money it is paying him. He’s not worth what John Cena is worth in money.



He’s still receiving money from WWE. For someone that breached contract, left WWE when he was needed most, and given the state of the WWE currently, it seems unlikely that the WWE would pay someone a lot of money still who screwed them over. That money can be viewed as supporting him in a time of need for whatever he’s going through.



Lastly, I find it weird he wouldn’t offer an explanation to fans after this much time. We deserve to know if he retired or not. We don’t even need to know the reason, but for someone who loves wrestling so much, it’s doubtful that he would just walk away from the fans and basically say screw them. He also loves what he does, that’s definitely a fact. I just think that there’s something else bigger going on behind the scenes than this.



Everybody needs a conspiracy theorist. This is just my conspiracy theory. Let me know what you think. Let me know if you think I’m crazy or you think I’m brilliant haha. I’m probably going to hear more of the former but that’s okay.
