CM Punk Pepsi Product PlacementIf youre familiar with World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE), then you should be familiar with the current World Heavyweight Champion: Phillip Jack Brooks a.k.a. CM Punk. The former ECW standout is not only a great wrestler, but also an instant Pepsi product placement.

The American wrestler has a Pepsi logo tattooed on his left shoulder. Is that by coincidence?

We arent sure.

But here are some facts and stories,

  • According to an online source, his Pepsi tattoo was inspired by a fraternity joke.
  • According to another source, CM Punks brothers got beer logo tattoos. And to be different, CM Punk decided to sport a Pepsi logo.
  • He has two signature moves named after the tattoo.
  • Pepsi has sponsored some WWE events, which however, unlikely could be a reason for him getting the tattoo.

These things are probably just coincidence. Whether its coincidence or a planned product placement, its definitely great advertising. Thanks to CM Punk, Pepsi gets unlimited exposure to new and youthful consumers at a nightly basis.
