Indisputable WWE Global Champion - Roman Reign and the newly crowned AEW World Champion CM Punk (CM Punk) may be completely opposite. Roman is now the "face character of WWE" and he meets all WWE's requirements for top superstars. The Tribe Leader is a 275-pound Samoan Superman who was a former college and professional football player and incredible athleticism in his size. On the other hand, CM Punk is the most anti-system that a top star can do. While working at WWE, he complained publicly, opposed to creativity, against systems, and tried to change the company from within. When this method didn't work, he left in disappointment and hadn't encountered wrestling for several years.
He finally appeared in AEW again and finally won the world championship again in this Monday's competition. The Savior of Wind City is now the flag bearer of AEW, and he held the banner of AEW high. IMHO, CMPunk is still one of the most famous figures in professional wrestling, and Roman remains the big dog in sports entertainment. Here are the reasons why Roman is more valued and popular in WWE than CM Punk in AEW.
5: From a physical perspective, CM Punk and WWE Global Champion are not comparable! In professional wrestling, body shape is important. Speaking of superstars, it’s no secret that Vince McMahon likes to invest in 100% of muscle men. Although his position on this has changed over the years, old habits are difficult to change. In the 80s, if you weighed no more than 250 pounds, you didn't have to worry about seeing him at the top because you would never see it. Roman is now like a Greek god, looking like a celebrity. If you see him in public, even if you don't know he is a professional wrestler, you will know that he is at least a big shot. IMHO, CM Punk looks ordinary by comparison. Although he is not small (6 feet 2 inches, 220 pounds), he pales in size and appearance compared to the tribal chief. Fans want their championship to look invincible, and CM Punk doesn't meet that requirement.
4: Roman is a more sympathetic character than CM punk! Although he is now a top villain and once a decent person who is often booed, WWE fans are still associated with the tribe chief. His role transformation is basically his time with WWE back to the point where fans really witnessed him growing up in front of their eyes. The audience who has been following Roman for years, who expressed support for him in his battle with leukemia, is perhaps the most obvious connection. In a way, that moment made people see things correctly, Roman’s health and recovery are more important than anything else. WWE fans expressed their support for him throughout his ordeal. CM punk, on the other hand, is often considered a perverted and self-righteous person. This is part of his wrestling role, but many viewers have different opinions. On social media, he is often called arrogant or mean, thanks to his lifelong resentment towards Vince McMahon, Triple H and WWE. Of course, the gangster knows how to make others angry. But that's not necessarily what you want from a so-called decent champion.
: Roman has a more mainstream cross-border appeal, especially with the promotional support of WWE! Roman’s elegance and charm make him the perfect person for a talk show. His recent debut on Jimmy Fallon Tonight Show has received high reviews and great success. Roman (as mentioned) looks like a superstar. While Vince doesn't want to lose Roman in a short time, the champion will eventually leave WWE for Hollywood, which is acceptable to some extent. Like his cousin, Dwayne Johnson, he is considered the most successful person who can transition from the ring to the movie.
There is no doubt that one day, Roman will follow Johnson's footsteps and become a top star in Tinsel Town. The good thing about WWE is that they can say that one of their biggest cards and greatest champions has hit the entertainment industry hard.Roman is now an artist, while CM Punk is just a wrestler. He may be the "strongest in the world", but he never showed his ability to attract a wider audience. Essentially, he is a villain hero and this villain happens to be a very big villain, but he doesn't have the superstar temperament of Roman. CM Punk has achieved minimal success in all efforts outside of WWE, and although he has also dabbled in film and television, he doesn't have the charm of being able to hit the big screen one day.
2: Roman has the help of Paul Heyman! Any great champion must be able to convince fans to enter the venue, and CMPunk does show this type of speech content, in fact, he is even one of the best people in recent memory. However, the gap between the new AEW world champion's microphone skills and Roman has narrowed a lot because Roman turned into a villain. Now that he has "recognized" his dark side, he has performed better in his speech. CM Punk is still a better talker, but Roman has a better mouth-Paul Heyman. As the spokesperson for the Bloodfather family, Heyman is probably one of the few people in the sports entertainment industry who are better than CM Punk in communicating with audiences, which makes the balance tilt towards Roman.
: Roman is more popular than CM punk! While CMPunk has some quality games in AEW, he also has many one-off games. While it is admirable that he wants to work with young talents in this franchise and hopes to improve them, it does greatly undermine the momentum he originally had. Meanwhile, the challengers as Roman were supported by a constant stream of high-level candidates, and he convincingly took them all out. While AEW's current talent pool is great, CMPunk hasn't reached Roman's opponent level yet. They say you're as good as your opponent, but unfortunately, CM Punk hasn't clashed with the best people on the roster yet. In terms of comparing their results, Roman broke all records of CM Punk staying in WWE early in the morning. Where is it? Now, Roman remains the best champion in the wrestling world. (To sum up, after all, the reason why WWE is bigger than AEW is that whoever becomes the champion will only end the same! There is no saying that Roman is high, and there is no saying that he has stepped on CM punk!)
