OWW Wrestler of the Week: CM Punk
Our resident philosopher profiles the new World Champion, C.M. Punk. Punk cashed in his Money in the Bank briefcase to upend Jeff Hardy, who had just defeated Edge, at Extreme Rules.

Four titles changed hands at Extreme Rules 2009. The World, WWE, ECW and Intercontinental titles all moved to new owners. All four men deserved the OWW Wrestler of the Week award, but when it came down to choosing one, I looked at which man made the biggest buzz. Punk defeated Umaga in a brutal Samoan Strap Match, only to return to cash in his Money in the Bank briefcase to take the World title away from new champion, Jeff Hardy. With a nod of respect to Tommy Dreamer, Batista and Chris Jericho, I award this week’s OWW Wrestler of the Week award to the new World champion, C.M. Punk.
