It's Still Real To Me - CM Punk: Best in the World - ESSR Feature #255
Welcome to the first episode of It’s Still Real To Me - where every episode, we look back at one of wrestling’s many great documentaries. In episode one, where better to look than the story behind one of the most divisive and outspoken men in wrestling history - CM Punk. Best In The World chronicles the run to the WWE Championship for Punk, via Ring Of Honor (18:35) and IWA: Mid South (15:51), through epic battles with Colt Cabana (16:02), Samoa Joe (19:48), Jeff Hardy (43:17) and John Cena.
Who better to take you through it than our very own self-confessed Punk apologist, and the man who’s made a career out of stealing his gimmick - Chris Murray. He'll try and convince co-hosts Andy Mitchell and Scott Macleod that Punk's WWE career really was the Best In the World. We'll talk Punk T-shirts (08:06), his World Championship runs (38:51), the Straight Edge Society (47:42), and of course, the pipebomb (61:01).
