CM Punk was one of the top stars in WWE for years, and he competed in some memorable matches on the Grandest Stage of Them All. Punk faced some big names at WrestleMania, but he never got the chance to main event the Show of Shows.
On the road to WrestleMania 29 it seemed like Punk had a chance of making it to the main event, but ultimately WWE booked The Rock vs. John Cena for the second year in a row. When a fan recently asked Punk about a potential triple threat, Punk noted that the pitch was for him to be taken out so Rock and Cena could have their moment.
Cena. Pitch was get me out first and let them have their lifetime moment.
