CM Punk Receives Very Special Honor From Another Promotion

I would say he has earned it. There are certain wrestlers who get your attention no matter what they do or where they do it through pure talent. A wrestler with a lot of charisma can make a very big impact and that is the case with a handful of stars today. Now one of them is being honored for something that they did a long time ago, which had a major role in what they are doing today.

Ring of Honor has announced that CM Punk will be the final inductee into the company’s inaugural Hall of Fame class. Punk joins the Briscoes, Bryan Danielson and Samoa Joe as the first class of inductees. Punk wrestled for Ring of Honor from 2002-2006, winning the World Title once and Tag Team Title twice. He made a cameo appearance in a pre-taped message at Final Battle in December 2021.

Opinion: This is a pretty easy layup for the Hall of Fame and Punk certainly deserves the honor. He is one of the names that put Ring of Honor on the map and certainly seems to appreciate his time there. It is nice to see Ring of Honor acknowledge him like this and it will be even better to see what kind of a tribute they have for him going forward. Punk has been a success everywhere he has been and a lot of that stems from his time in Ring of Honor.

What do you think of Punk’s time in Ring of Honor? Who else should be inducted? Let us know in the comments below.
