The UFC 199 slot makes more sense to me given that the company already has a loaded show for UFC 200 and can spread the wealth a bit by having Punk fight on the previous show. Furthermore, they will get a better idea of what type of draw Punk is in MMA if he fights on show where he is one of the main selling points.<\/p>\n<div id=\"prowr-1894162123\" class=\"prowr-after-content prowr-entity-placement\"><a class=\"spreaker-player\" href=\"https:\/\/www.spreaker.com\/show\/pwboom\" data-resource=\"show_id=3275525\" data-theme=\"light\" data-playlist=\"show\" data-width=\"100%\" data-height=\"340px\">Listen to \"Pro Wrestling Boom Podcast\" on Spreaker.<\/a><script async src=\"https:\/\/widget.spreaker.com\/widgets.js\"><\/script><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>C.M.
