hi i have a droid 2 global thats running cyanogenmod and the power button is damaged (doesnt click and acts randomly , sometimes likes its always pressed in, sometimes like its being pressed over and over), im planning on taking it in to get replaced but I need to revert to stock, i have tried using rsd lite to do this but the powerbutton exits me out of the bootloader before i can do anything, does anyone know of a alternative way to do this?

Take the battery out, then put it back in, hold the Up Arrow key on the physical keyboard and connect the charger. The phone will power up and go into the SBF loader.

Well as long as your phone keeps shutting itself down due to that power button issue, you cannot do anything.

Take that bad boy apart is your only option it would seem. Or you can go with the insurance recovery and hope they can't fix the phone enough to know you altered it. Assuming you didn't change your boot logo, which I think cm7 does on its own.
