This whole "best in the world" story is BS. Does Punk think that just because you are champ the longest in the company's history makes him the best. Lets look at Jimmy Snuka, Jake "the Snake" Roberts, Paul Orndorff, George "the Animal" Steele, Dusty Rhodes, Harley Race, Roddy Piper, Barry Windham, Ted DiBiase, Jerry "the King Lawler. All of these names are considered greats. yet never held the WWE/WWF title. But they all were great in the ring at what they did.

I don't mind Punk being called the company workhorse now, he's worked so hard to get to where he's at and at least he's getting some recognition for that. Comparing him to Bret Hart, well I'm 50/50 on that one. They were the best in their own way, that's what I could say.

Yeeah, both of them didn't draw. But at least Bret was a great wrestler though, unlike Punk.

he was calling himself Best in the world back in 2011 when he had no WWE Title, so yeah, this has nothing to do with having a long WWE Title reign.
