And yet, the UFC has still deigned to put him as a playable character in their video games and even start making documentaries about the guy even though Punk right now is completely unproven, and has absolutely little to no MMA bouts or credentials to show that he's earned the right to have documentaries made about his as-of-now nonexistent MMA career. With all the attention and hype he's been getting for a currently unproven UFC career, it comes as no surprise that a lot of people are getting sick of CM Punk.

Others counter that leaving before his contract was up was horribly unprofessional. And a final group notes that, whatever anything else, his leaving seems to have opened the door for other stars such as Daniel Bryan and Cesaro to rise and reach their full potential.
** Punk being granted an automatic match into UFC without any previous fighting credentials to back him up. Many point out that Punk would be a huge draw in increasing buys (and as the match has happened, that seems to be true with more than five hundred thousand buys) but others, including actual MMA fighters themselves have pointed out how unfair it is that Punk gets to walk into a main show match with an 0-0 record as well as taking a huge amount of cash with him when his opponent would be getting a bare fraction of it.[[note]]Punk's fight purse for the night was reportedly $500,000, which is around the standard base pay for a main-eventing champion. Mickey Gall, his opponent, made $15,000 to show up and another $15,000 for winning. For reference, only Heavyweight Champion Stipe Miocic and Alistair Overeem (who were competing in the main event of the card) got a higher payout than Punk that night.[[/note]] Especially when one considers Punk being so frustrated with the WWE was because part-timers walked in and took main event spots from the guys who worked their asses off to get on the card, which is pretty much exactly what he is doing with the UFC. It didn't help after Punk's match with Mickey Gall, in which he tapped out within two minutes of the first round, making the whole two year build-up over his debut look laughable.
** Getting a second chance in the Octagon for a UFC event in Chicago. More dedicated MMA fans have begun making numerous jokes about how much lower the UFC would need to dig for any opponent that Punk could realistically defeat. With Punk losing a rather brutal one-sided decision, those who support his MMA endeavors are becoming increasingly few and far in between.

Surprisingly, many fans found that Punk actually looked better bald, and with shorter hair in general. Since then, he's kept his hair relatively short, even shaving it into (in the words of Wrestling/ChrisJericho) a "stylish buzzcut" after his 2012 FaceHeelTurn.

* JustHereForGodzilla: From his WWE debut to when he was drafted to RAW, Punk was effectively the main, if not ''only'', reason to watch WWECW. General agreement is that after he left the show, the quality of the programming went down a notch, though they at least still had most of the talented roster from Punk's time, along with drafting Wrestling/MattHardy as compensation. Then 2009 happened, where basically everyone worth watching got drafted except for the recently-returned Wrestling/{{Christian}}, Wrestling/SheltonBenjamin, and Wrestling/WilliamRegal, and when the show finally died in 2010, many called it a MercyKill.
