5 WWE Superstars who have surprising jobs outside the ring

#2 CM Punk: Comic Book Writer

Punk has written several comics since leaving the WWE

There’s an old saying: If you do what you love, you’ll never have to work a day in your life. This is especially true for the life of CM Punk. Growing up loving wrestling, the young Phil Brooks became a wrestler and transitioned to the Octagon upon leaving the WWE, having his debut fight in September 2016.

An avid comic book fan, it was only a matter of time before the Best in the World ended up writing for Marvel Comics in 2015.

Amongst his works include the February 2015 Thor Annual #1, the Drax the Destroyer series from that same year, and he turned his attention from Superheroes to horror when he wrote ‘the Most Cursed’ for Vertigo Comic’s Strange Sports Stories #3, released May that same year.

After two years away, Punk returned to the comic book scene with the one-shot Master of Kung-Fu, with Punk aiming to be the best comic creator in the world.
