CM Punk mentioned he was up for the lead role in WWE Studios’ 12 Rounds: Reloaded, but Randy Orton ended up getting the role.

According to The Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Punk was actually the second or third choice for the role. John Cena may have been the first choice (he starred in the first film), but Chris Jericho was also asked to do the movie. Jericho was asked in advance, but he ended up turning it down.
