I Never thought I would be able to say this...but I pulled it off and am officially marking out right now!!!! I now own the Iconic "GI JOE" Trunks CM Punk wore at Wrestlemania 26. These are the 100% authentic Ring Worn Trunks and I am going to meet Punk next weekend at Ringside Fest to have him sign them. I don't know why he let them go in the first place but I hope he doesn't want them back lol. I can't believe I am able to have such a cool piece of Wrestlemania and CM Punk history in my personal collection. I remember when Punk came out wearing those trunks and I flipped! I thought that was the coolest attire he had ever worn and when I found the owner of the trunks who bought them privately, they told me they had fallen on hard times and need money asap due to financial troubles. I jumped at the chance and presented an offer and sure enough I now have the one of a kind Mania CM Punk GI Joe Trunks. What do you guys think Punk's reaction will be when I pull them out at Ringside Fest??? Pics of Punk wearing the trunks at Mania:

I really want to know what the reaction will be like when Punk sees this! Hahahahaa I have mixed feelings, He may think its totally cool and sign them or he may want them back lol. I asked the person who sold them to me if they were stolen just to make sure Punk wasn't going to whoop my a$$ when he saw me with them and they said they got them from someone who was at WM 26 and was close to Punk sooo I am beyond excited to not only meet Punk but have him sign these so I can frame them. As for washing them...haha my girlfriend said the same thing, She was like "I really hope those are washed, that's kind of disgusting..." I never really thought about it, I'm sure they weren't if they were given to someone at the show. |

Haha i can already imagine him being super pissed if you show him these and A) they're stolen or B) He wants them back because he only intended the person who he gave these to, to keep them...anyways they look really awesome up close...if you get them signed do you plan on getting them signed on the inside? cause i wouldn't want to ruin the design by having the autograph going over the designs but that's just me  |

That's awesome dude! How much did that put you out? I sold an Adult WInged Eagle Replica for $300 and then took $50 from my PayPal so $350 shipped. I can get a Replica belt anytime and they flood eBay but these were a once in a lifetime thing and I had to jump at it. They originally wanted $900 but we talked for days and came to a price I couldn't refuse. |

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but you got played like a fiddle. Look at this pic from WM26. The camo pattern doesn't match up, and the red, white, and blue stripes on the sides of the "CM PUNK" logo are much thicker. Hope you didn't spend much.  |

Hate to be a negative nancy, but the camo pattern on the trunks in your photo and the pattern in the WM26 photos look a little different to me. The font on "C.M.PuNK" seems different as well - especially the K and the U. Are you sure these are legit?

Wrong, Its because they are stretched from him wearing them. My pic is the trunks sitting shrunk to original size and they look different on him because the elastic is stretched. These are them and Punk will confim it next weekend for anyone doubting it. |

unfortunately, looking at that picture.. there's no denying Gore is right. Look at the giant brown patch in the front. it doesn't match up at all.
They are AWESOME replicas from someone who definitely knew what they were doing as a gear maker.. but they are just that, replicas.. Really hope you didn't spend much..

The CM on your pair goes all the way down onto the seam. The pictures you provided, the letters are higher. The camo is different also, no way that's from stretching.
I hope they're real though man, it'd be awesome to own something like that.
