Phillip Jack Brooks , plus connu sous le nom de CM Punk, est un catcheur et pratiquant de combat libre américain. Il est connu pour son travail à la World Wrestling Entertainment de 2005 à 2014.
Punk a été sept fois champion du Monde : une fois champion du monde de la ECW, deux fois champion de la WWE , une fois champion du Monde de la Ring of Honor et trois fois champion du monde poids lourds. À la WWE, il a également remporté le championnat du Monde par équipe avec Kofi Kingston ainsi que le championnat intercontinental de la WWE pour devenir, en 2009, le Triple Crown Champion le plus rapide de l'histoire de la fédération, en 203 jours seulement. Il est aussi le vainqueur des éditions 2008 et 2009 du Money in the Bank Ladder match.
Il s'est d'abord fait connaître sur le circuit indépendant, surtout pour son travail à la Ring of Honor où il a remporté le championnat du Monde de la ROH et le championnat du Monde par équipes de la ROH. Il a également été le tout premier entraîneur en chef de la ROH Wrestling Academy avec Bryan Danielson.
C'est en 2005 que CM Punk rejoint la World Wrestling Entertainment, où il fera ses débuts télévisés en 2006. Durant ses premières années à la fédération, il remportera plusieurs titres mondiaux, notamment le championnat du Monde de la ECW et trois fois le championnat du Monde poids lourds.
Le personnage qu'il incarne sur les rings ou gimmick de Punk est celui d'un catcheur straight edge, et ceci qu'il soit face ou heel : il s'agit d'un réel choix de vie qu'il assume aussi bien devant les écrans que dans sa vie privée. CM Punk est parti de la WWE en 2014 pour s'entraîner et intégrer l'Ultimate Fighting Championship. Wikipedia

Contexte: I love Chicago. [Crowd cheers] I love the parks, i love Navy Pier, i love the skyline, i love the museums, i love the history, I LOVE CHICAGO! [Crowd cheers] What i hate, what i hate, what i despise... is the inhabitants of Chicago. You! [Points to the crowd] You! [Points to the camera] You [points to the crowd again] ruined my beautiful city! You.. you middle class, lazy teamsters. You corrupt politicians, you corrupt police officers. The horrible horrible Chicago White Sox. The Susie Homemakers who fatten up their children with fast food, and then eat a bottle of pills and pass out on the couch. The out of work dads, you people make me sick! [Crowd boos slightly] I'm proud to live here, i'm proud to be from here, i am not proud to live amongst people like you, you are the scum of the earth, and you have ruined a beautiful city, and that for a second time should be burned to the ground, and in it's ashes, i and i alone will build a Straight-edge utopia. And speaking of fat people that nobody likes, we all saw The Big Show knock me out with his big stupid ham-fist. [Raises fist to camera] And yet, unlike all of you, i don't run away. I stand here on my own two feet, and i stand here defiant. I stand here confident. This is my house, and i run from nobody. Not any of you, not somebody that's a foot taller, not somebody that outweighs me by 250 pounds. Tonight, i am David. And Big Show, he can be Goliath. And my slingshot is the power of almighty Straight-edge!
