cm punk During this week’s edition of Steve Austin’s podcast, which you can listen to in full at this link, Austin played the entire Vince McMahon interview from Raw last week, and then he offered the following thoughts on CM Punk signing with UFC:

“I think he [Punk] rolls with some [UFC] guys and it’s a very big passion of his. I wish him all the luck in the world, and I know they’ll do a hell of a big buyrate.”

“Match him up with someone his skill level, it’s hard to gauge what his skill level is though.”

“I talked about maybe bridging the gap with CM Punk and Vince, and then he goes and does the deal with UFC. It would appear to me that they’re way further apart than I thought they were. I knew things were bad and I hadn’t talked to CM Punk, so it’s going to be interesting.”
