CM Punk left WWE in 2014, citing the grueling schedule, his health issues and lack of freedom for creativity as the reasons for his departure from the company. Punk felt that the company treated him badly during his final years there and that he wasn’t getting the respect he deserved. It has been said that CM Punk wanted to main event at WrestleMania but John Cena was given the push despite Punk working hard for all those years.

This month, while speaking at the Absolute Geek Podcast, Punk spoke about the WWE culture and said that it’s been the same all these years. CM Punk said that when he left the WWE, they called him a quitter and the same has happened with Sasha Banks and Naomi. Punk was indicating that the company was always arbitrary and said that the bootlickers blame people like him, Sasha and Naomi for walking out.

CM Punk has also appeared in some movies and made his acting debut in the movie Girl on the Third Floor. In an interview with Inverse in 2019, Punk was asked about the fictional character he would most like to play in a Marvel film. Punk said that he would love to be whatever the producers want him to play because he is a huge Marvel fan. Punk stated that he had watched the then latest movie Spiderman: far from home and thought that it was very well-made movie, with Mysterio being excellent. Punk ultimately acknowledged that he would portray the Spider-Man villain Kraven with great skill.

“Whatever they want to pay me to portray. I get asked this question in every interview and I wish I had a different answer. But the last movie I saw was the new Spider-Man. I thought it was so well done and what they did with Mysterio was excellent. I think can be a good Kraven.”
