To paraphrase the famous Allen Iverson quote, “Are we really sittin’ here talkin’ ’bout a podcast? Really?! A podcast?!”
Yes, A.I., in fact we are. Caroline Collins and Samantha Daley lead us in to a discussion dealing with the most talked about podcast in recent memory, CM Punk on Colt Cabana’s “Art of Wrestling”.
Justin LaBar and Josh Isenberg discuss the artist formerly known as the Second City Saint, along with his harsh “tell all confession”. For a guy who claims to want distance from wrestling world, CM Punk shook the industry to the core with a litany of allegations, firmly placing himself back in the limelight of the industry he wants nothing to do with.
While LaBar remains slightly (keyword slightly) more sympathetic to Punk’s cause, Isenberg shoots hard on the Straight Edge Superstar. Both deliver rock solid and passionate points in their discussion. A discussion which may rival the intensity of the podcast at hand.
There’s no argument Punk’s words were merely that…his words. One side to a very complex story. LaBar and Isenberg dissect some of the allegations, while hitting upon how CM Punk could’ve, and should’ve, handled the situation differently.
No matter which side of the CM Punk vs. WWE situation you’re on, you won’t want to miss the CSR Originals’ breakdown of the highly controversial podcast.
This segment is 7:48 in length.
