Correlating CM Punk's Statements To An Internet Marketing Company

By Rob Sutter


Those who consider themselves avid pro wrestling fans may have already been exposed to a select few podcasts. CM Punk, a former World Wrestling Entertainment athlete, took to Colt Cabana's popular webcast to air his grievances with the company he left early this year. To say that these are fascinating listens would be nothing short of an understatement. In fact, it can make someone wonder whether or not WWE could be in need of an Internet marketing company.

It was with these podcasts that Punk spoke about WWE and his harsh treatment by the company during his last few years there. Some of the issues that Punk brought up were medical, including the staph infection that he wrestled with for quite some time. It's also been said that staph infections, when left untreated, can prove to be deadly. What this does, more than anything else, is showcase the lack of the care on the part of WWE and its general workforce.

Creative censorship was another interesting point that Punk drew attention to as well. For those who are unaware, Punk suggested to the company that he would walk UFC fighter Chael Sonnel to the octagon for one of his fights. To Punk, it would result in more viewers for WWE, since one of their talents were associated with the event. The idea was not only shot down but soon given to Triple H, another WWE talent, as he was given approval to accompany renown boxer Floyd Mayweather. This is yet another idea that seems to further the need for an Internet marketing company.

It wouldn't be out of the question to think that WWE could, eventually, bring on an Internet marketing company to help matters. After all, reputation management is a powerful tool and it's one that can help WWE to quell any of the concerns that fans have following these podcasts. After all, why should they support a company that has been considered immoral? It's a fair point to make and it's one that can be addressed by the most reputable of firms, fishbat included amongst them.

No one can argue with the fact that Punk's part, in these podcasts, have shed quite a bit of light on the inner workings of WWE. Why should talent be mistreated in such ways that they are either hurt due to injuries or simply burned out because of a lack of creative freedom? Factors like these are ones that WWE would be wise to address, in the most professional of ways to boot. Even if this is done, I'm sure that no wrestling fan will forget Punk's words for a while.
