- Sources report that CM Punk’s entire promo at the end of RAW this week was improvised by Punk and not scripted. Nobody in the back knew what Punk was going to say until he said it live on RAW.
WWE officials told Punk to go out and say in his own words why he was leaving the company, why he wanted the WWE Title and why he wanted to leave with it in his possession. There was a discussion that when officials felt Punk was going too far, they would pull the plug on the segment and cut his mic.
It’s said that Punk was upset months ago when Triple H came back to feud with The Undertaker and while some of his comments on RAW towards Vince McMahon were well thought out to appear not as a shoot to the average viewer, most believe that Punk’s comments towards Triple H and John Laurinaitis were strictly a shoot.
Word also is that Punk had some notes for his speech jotted down on his wrist tape.
As far as his contract status, Punk’s deal apparently expires the second week of July but he signed an extension to work through Money in the Bank. Still with last night’s new storyline development, sources maintain that Punk is leaving at Money in the Bank.

I get that they want to put John Cena over with Punk's departure, but giving him that promo just gave him massive momentum. Even if he loses to Cena at MitB, he's gonna take an assload of momentum wherever he goes.
WWE needs to hold on to him, they need to make him the new big guy, and they need to give him whatever he wants in order to keep him there.

I don't think he's actually leaving. I just don't believe it. That promo was a huge indication to me that he isn't leaving. I guess we'll just have to wait and see though.

cmpunk is the only reason why the PG ERA is not being neglected.

I think CENA vs PUNK will be a REAL REAL match, for the future of WWE, nothing will be fake/planned.
