CM Punk finally reveals what "CM" actually stands for
CM Punk has disclosed what the "CM" in his name actually stands for. This has been a big mystery for many fans for a long time.
The Second City Saint has been back in WWE for nearly a year now. He's one of the biggest stars in the entire industry and has been feuding with another major star, Drew McIntyre, for quite some time now. The multi-time world champion is a very influential figure in the wrestling business, and he's been that way for a very long time.
During a recent appearance on No-Contest Wrestling with O’Shea Jackson Jr. and TJ Jefferson, CM Punk was asked what the first part of his ring name stands for. Many people believe it stands for "Chicago Made," but he revealed that it's actually "Chick Magnet."
"The CM thing, it originally stood for 'Chick Magnet' and I tried to get rid of that because I thought that was a little silly. But, it kinda stuck and became CM Punk and I just, like, I can't really complain because things sort of worked out okay. We're doing alright. But it is a silly name, I always laugh when people complain about stuff, like I see people complain about about some of the ridiculous names that some NXT kids pick and I'm like, 'What am I gonna say? My name is CM Punk, it's the stupidest name,'" he said. [10:30-11:21]
