Yeah it doesn't look good for CM Punk. I don't have a problem with him testing himself. I just think he is outmatched.
Oh yeah he's screwed lol

Brock really is the only guy who has come over and done well in the UFC. He became the champion and a lot of people attribute this to his athleticism and that he was a great amateur wrestler.
Who else would be able to come to the UFC and maybe win a few fights with some training?
I personally think guys with wrestling/athletic backgrounds would have fared well in the UFC.
Kurt Angle (in his prime, Gold medalist and also known for being a tough guy)
Jack Swagger (Div 1 wrestler, guys a freak athlete)
Dolph Zigler (dudes a div 1 wrestler/ freak athlete)
Triple H (also a freak athlete, charisma,known tough guy) (I mean in his prime obviously)
Dont dislike the guy but HHH is a very weird choice for this lol. I have seen a ton of shoot interviews, like a lot. I don't recall a single HHH tough guy story honestly.
The only tough guy story I have ever heard concerning Triple H is when he beat up a fan who jumped in the ring and attacked Stone Cold Steve Austin during their match.
That's it. These wrestlers are capable of fighting for real but beating up your average joe and being able to compete in Mixed Martial Arts at a high level are two different things.
Now how well can the average Professional Wrestler with no Martial Arts or combat sports background fight? I imagine that they are below the level of your average street fighter and nowhere near the level of your average Mixed Martial Artist. They couldn't handle anyone in the Top 50. Why? Because they aren't real fighters. Some of them might have the athleticism to succeed in MMA if given enough time to train but in a short time or no time they don't stand a chance.
Triple H beat the snot out of that guy. Imagine what he could do with the right training is all i'm saying. He is probably more athletic in his prime then a lot of UFC guys today and I guarentee you he would be a powerful grappler/striker. Him and Undertaker could transfer over to mma if they trained for it and probably be very successful.
The guy's explosive as hell and also has a mean streak. You're an idiot if you don't think he would be a good fighter.
Triple H has also trained muai thai before and apparently he hits like a truck.
