Gabe Sapolsky explains why C.M. Punk and Daniel Bryan winning WWE World Titles made him think "f--- you"

Dragon Gate USA booker Gabe Sapolsky wrote a blog on Monday regarding WWE World Champions C.M. Punk and Daniel Bryan. "At last night's WWE Table Ladders and Chairs pay-per-view, CM Punk retained the WWE Title while Daniel Bryan won the World Title," Sapolsky wrote. "I had the privilege and good fortune to book both Punk and Bryan as Ring Of Honor World Champions. When both stood atop WWE Universe last night the only thought that came to mind was "F--- YOU!!!!"



"I'm not one to say 'I told ya so' but I said years ago that Punk and Bryan (known as Bryan Danielson on the independent wrestling scene) would accomplish what they did last night. I didn't just say that because of their in ring abilities or natural connection to the audience.

"I believe in them because they have those special intangibles that separate the greats from the wannabes and the elite from the greats. It's not just extra time in the gym or studying a craft. It's an inherent drive, a determination, a leadership gene." To read the full blog, visit Heymanhustle.com/articles/news/23-news/167443-cm-punk-daniel-bryan.

Powell's POV: Sapolsky recalled C.M. Punk informing him that he was going to sign a WWE developmental deal and what he did to help Ring of Honor. He also recalled how Bryan came through for him in DGUSA after he was rehired by WWE following the necktie firing.
