March 23, 201411 yr comment_5595547 Almost no talk at all. He barely got a word in edgewise with the chick from Community always piping up. They have a spot on the (live) show where people get to come up and ask a question. Part of me was hoping a wrestling fan would get up there and say "it's real to me dammit" but it didn't happen. He carried himself well. Didn't get to say as much as the other two on the couch, but took it in stride and joked and looked like he was having fun up there.
March 23, 201411 yr comment_5595561 Is it possible he signed some kind of confidentiality agreement that lasts until his contract is up?
March 23, 201411 yr comment_5595605 In the SEC documents, there are booking contracts for Stephanie and HHH. They have confidentiality clauses in them that are probably similar to whatever most wrestlers sign. Maybe John or someone else with a legal background could explain how those clauses would apply in Punk's situation.
March 23, 201411 yr comment_5595606 If the confidentiality clauses are there, how does the shoot interview market exist? How are guys like Jericho and Foley able to write their books? How are Austin and Ross able to do their podcasts and tell stories?
March 23, 201411 yr comment_5595608 i'd assume it's not worth the time, money, and loss of good will to sue wrestlers for interviews, and there couldn't be much in terms of damages.
March 23, 201411 yr comment_5595609 I asked because unlike Ross and Austin, Punk is still technically under contract with WWE, not to mention that anything Foley and Jericho (or others) have published are almost always WWE books.
March 25, 201411 yr comment_5595699 Jericho's books have not been WWE books, but they've been released at times when he was not under active contract.
March 25, 201411 yr comment_5595769 i'd assume it's not worth the time, money, and loss of good will to sue wrestlers for interviews, and there couldn't be much in terms of damages. Yeah, while I'm sure the NDA's have the language to cover any number of things (my own NDA for the tech company I work for is stupid extensive, though little of it is ever enforced), I bet in practice they couldn't care less about autobiographical details. Something that revealed too much about ongoing business matters though, I assume that would be a different matter.
March 26, 201411 yr comment_5595910 I'm torn between hoping this is a work and that he makes a grand return in New Orleans, and hoping it isn't and that we'll get some damned good shoot interviews out of this.
March 26, 201411 yr comment_5595918 Punk is a multimillionaire I don't see him sitting down to talk with RF any time soon.
March 26, 201411 yr comment_5595923 Punk at his most surly and sarcastic, being interviewed by the usual morons on the shoot interview circuit, would be pretty damn entertaining at least once.
April 1, 201411 yr Author comment_5596568 Punk and AJ are engaged. It was the talk of RAW last night backstage. http://www.wrestlezone.com/news/464793-exclusive-aj-lee-and-cm-punk-engaged edit: forget that Meltz says it's not true but they have moved in together in Chicago
April 1, 201411 yr comment_5596587 I'm surprised we don't have video of someone stalking his building for TMZ catching AJ going in or out if they're really living together.
April 1, 201411 yr comment_5596600 April Fools? No that will be in about a month when Punk finds a really hot girl on the indies and starts banging her while AJ is on the road. I have a hard time believing that Punk is a settling down kind of guy.

April 6, 201411 yr comment_5597191 Someone spotted Punk at a Blackhawks game going on today. Definitely not in NOLA.
April 6, 201411 yr comment_5597202 Someone spotted Punk at a Blackhawks game going on today. Definitely not in NOLA. I've seen several FB pages/groups get trolled by someone repurposing some old Punk photo as "proof" that Punk is in New Orleans this week. FWIW, and tongue in cheek a little, the game was this afternoon. Its not like they can't fly him down, get him into the arena when everyone is already IN the arena for main event shenanigans. =
May 8, 201411 yr comment_5602452 Well, this is fascinating and awful. Natalie Slater on how Punk's mysterious retirement (yup) isn't sitting well with him because fans are camping out by his home: http://t.co/nkT9SttguA
