Line 19:
* [[Crossing the Line Twice]]: or rather in his own words
{{quote| ''"I'm a [[Chapelles Show (TV)|Habitual line stepper.]]"''}}
* [[Draco in Leather Pants]]: His asshole arrogant [[Card -Carrying Villain]] [[Heel]] persona gets massive pops, probably cause he's the definition of [[Faux Affably Evil]], his [[Straight Edge]] gimmick is much beloved by hardliners and other people who think that cheering an [[Jeff Hardy|addict]] is odd.
** Becomes more evident in his fight vs [[Randy Orton|Orton]] on the 4/18/11 edition of Raw it had fans cheering the both of them in a similar fashion to "let's go Cena", "Cena Sucks" chant.
* [[Epic Riff]]: Both of his WWE theme songs.
Line 44:
** Pulls the same thing with Orton, but this is less effective since Orton's made it perfectly clear in the past that he knows his actions have no excuse, but doesn't care and does them anyway.
*** The one with Orton might have been aimed at the people who root for him despite even at his least evil, still being a [[Designated Hero]].
** The epic [["The Reason You Suck" Speech]] on the 6/27/11 ''RAW'' was ''full'' of these, but perhaps his paragraph about [[Vince McMahon]] fit this trope the best:
{{quote| '''[[CM Punk]]:''' But [[Vince McMahon]]'s gonna make money despite himself. He's a millionaire who ''should'' be a billionaire. You know why he's not a billionaire? It's 'cuz he surrounds himself with glad-handing, nonsensical douchebag yes-men like John Laurinaitis, who's gonna tell him everything he wants to hear! And I'd like to think that maybe this company will be better after [[Vince McMahon]]'s dead, but the fact is, it's gonna get taken over by his [[Stephanie McMahon|idiotic daughter]] and his [[Triple H|doofus son-in-law]] and the rest of his ''stupid'' family!}}
** Becomes a [[Lampshade Hanging]] when [[Fan Nickname|Trips]] told Vince the board fired him and he was replacing him at least in kayfabe
** Another [["The Reason You Suck" Speech|Reason You Suck Speech]] to John Cena on July 11th's RAW. While [[John Cena]] had a point about Punk claiming to know what the fans want but still going to leave them all the same, Punk's retort that Cena [[You Are What You Hate|has become a dynasty]] and that Cena can't call himself the underdog anymore struck home harder.
*** Cena didn't help his case by not giving Punk a real retort. Instead, he [[Talk to The Fist|punched Punk in the face]].
*** Cena didn't have a point. Punk's "Voice of the Voiceless" statement referred to the guys who lost their jobs unjustly because they didn't fit Vince's mold of a wrestler. Not the "WWE Universe" exactly. Also, it is not like fans are incapable of watching Punk in any other promotion.
