CM Punk is outstanding. I put CM Punk above Cena. I never knew him until I came back when I got kidnapped by Edge. He has the mentality and the ability and the athleticism to perform. He picked up all of that on his own, from Taker and Kane and talking with those guys. He is like a sponge and he just picks up everything. I think he is fantastic. Cena is fantastic too, but Punk is, in my estimation, No. 1 on the roster.
Daniel Bryan was in developmental when I was going to a different territory each week. He came from Shawn Michaels' school. Shawn is one of the best in the business, and he taught Daniel Bryan right. He is not a CM Punk, but he is pretty close. He is really good at one he does.
Dolph Ziggler…he had to grow on me. I had never heard of him before and he looks so much like Billy Gun. Certain things he does in the ring…I see Billy Gunn. He’s not Billy Gunn, but he is a fantastic performer. I have nothing bad to say about any of these guys – they are all really good at what they do.

Just cause you don't agree with him doesn't mean his credibilty is gone.

Re: Paul Bearer on the TOP Stars in the Current Era
I kind of agree with him, I think he's got right calling Zigger, Bryan and Punk threeof the top guys in the company right now, but the three of them are way be hide John Cena.
Like Cena or not he is the most well rounded guy in the company, after that i would put Bryan then Punk and maybe Zigger or Orton for number four.
Re: Paul Bearer on the TOP Stars in the Current Era
He's right, all three of those guys, especially Punk, have been excellent lately. It's no bombshell that Punk is better than Cena, I thought it was common knowledge to be honest, the only things Cena has on him are look and marketability, and unfortunately those are two of the most important factors in deciding the face of the company. Not to mention, Cena kisses serious corporate ass while Punk doesn't, and THAT is the absolute deciding factor.
Re: Paul Bearer on the TOP Stars in the Current Era
Good words from Bearer and fun to read the honest opinion from someone more on the inside. They somewhat reflect my views on where they stand, although I of course have a different perspective than he does.
