WWE: When pro wrestling gets real

3. CM Punk decks a fan during RAW

It is dangerous when a fan enters the ring during a match, but it gets a whole lot worse when the superstars go into the crowd during their segments. When people enter through the crowd, they are usually accompanied by the security personnel who take care of the safety of the performer. But when CM Punk climbed through the aisles and into the crowd, the security he had was very little, and this led to the fans shoving and pushing the then WWE champion, as the chairman himself was in the ring.

What followed next garnered much interest and attention, as Punk was shoved by a fan, and Punk retaliated. The only downside was that Punk decked the wrong guy. Although Punk can never be blamed for what happened, this brings up the topic of performers’ safety when they go right into the belly of the beast, amidst the ravaging fans who can be more than just dangerous.
