While WWE and arena security were once again taking all “CM Punk” signs at the door before last night’s Main Event and SmackDown TV tapings, one fan managed to get his “Phil Brooks” sign into the building and featured on television. For those unaware, Phil Brooks is the real name of CM Punk.
Of course, the company will be able to blur out that sign and any others pertaining to CM Punk as the show is taped several days in advance. It remains to be seen if they go that far with the editing of the show.
