#3 CM Punk
Talk about someone that would blow the roof off the arena if his entrance music hit out of nowhere. Punk was one of the most popular WWE Superstars in the history of the company, and honestly, his popularity is still there considering he’s been gone three years now.
“CM Punk” chants are still loud at Raw or a PPV, sometimes even during matches. Punk left the company in the early part of 2014 after disagreements with the company, including several with Vince McMahon and Triple H specifically.
Punk spent the next few years bashing the company he once worked for and starred in, and eventually made his way to UFC. After months and months of speculation on when he would make his UFC debut, he finally did so, facing Mickey Gall at UFC 203 in September of 2016.
His UFC debut did not go as planned, however, when Punk tapped out to Gall in two minutes and fourteen seconds. Since then, Punk has kept somewhat of a low profile. Dana White does not seem too eager to get Punk back in a UFC ring anytime soon, and even though he’s burned some bridges within WWE, Vince is not scared to bury a hatchet with a Superstar if it makes the company money.
