CM Punk is one of the most controversial performers in WWE history because of the things he did while he was on screen and the way he left the company this past January. He's a guy that has never been shy about speaking his mind, nor has he been quick to issue an apology unless it is absolutely necessary. It's those qualities that made a lot of wrestling fans love CM Punk, but it also got him into some trouble along the way too. His relationship with wrestling fans has been very unique. He's always been a guy that has a laid back attitude and nothing ever seems to bother him as long as people are cool with him. The problem is that when people don't show him respect or they try to challenge him in any way, he fires back by firing verbal shots at the person or sometimes he's even gotten physical. It's time to look back at some of the most unique instances involving Punk interacting with WWE fans. This is not about ripping Punk as a performer or as a man. It's merely a look back at those times where Punk may have crossed the line a bit, but so did the fans as well. Since we're living in the digital era with social media all over the place, a lot of these things are more accessible to us and as a result we have videos of a lot of these occurrences. Here's a look at seven fan encounter stories (even one of them with a celebrity) involving former WWE Champion CM Punk.
