Social media reacts to CM Punk's submission loss to Mickey Gall at UFC 203 - 'It doesn't work this way'

It didn't take long for Mickey Gall to take down C.M. Punk last night (Sat., Sept. 10, 2016) at UFC 203 live on pay-per-view (PPV) from Quicken Loans Arena in Cleveland, Ohio, smash and submit him via first-round rear naked choke and teach the former World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) superstar a real life lesson. Despite training under the famed Duke Roufus, Punk showed little offensive prowess and failed to deliver in his mixed martial arts (MMA) debut, despite fending off some of Gall's earlier submission attempts.

With such a high-profile fight filling up the night air in Cleveland, the MMA and WWE community, unsurprisingly, had some reaction to share.
