I was just about to make a Raw thread, though with the tagline being something along the lines of "Taboo Tuesday, Cyber Sunday and now Malware Monday!".

Meh, but anyway, I think Raw is going to be interesting tonight. I'm looking forward to seeing what Punk has to say and what his "Most Honest" thing is. Also, I'm curious as to see if R-Truth is still involved in the WWE Championship is some way, which I think he will be for at least another month if he says he was screwed because of the kid.

We're a few days passed the 15th Anniverary of WCW's Great American Bash in Baltimore which witnessed Benoit vs Sullivan in the infamous falls count anywhere match that ended up in the Women's Restroom

For whatever reason NWA/WCW used to hold GAB in Baltimore just about every year

Hey, what's up?

My name is Bob and I got really pissed off with tonight's episode of Raw. Mason Ryan vs. Evan Bourne when two other viable candidates were present, Mark Henry vs. Kane in an arm wrestling match, Vicky vs. Michael Cole in a dance off... fuck

Would anyone with access to a cell phone even want to see this? Most kids with cell phones want to look up www.4tube.com or www.cracked.com than see the same god damn thing evey week.

Even when I was 11 and watching wrestling (think back to Stone Cold vs Kane in a First Blood Match) I would not want to see this crap. Cena and Orton win every fucking time.

It would totally kill my most deluded illusions of a compelling corporate wrestling product if they did not keep CM Punk on. There are no other compelling heels to watch. I still think of Christian as a face. R-Truth is getting up there, but had to lose to Cena, and Miz is... let's just let him build A RY.

Either Punk goes out (non-kayfabe) because he hates the fucking product, or he goes out as champ. It would bring a great fucking dynamic to a terribly watered down product.

LOVED the Triple Threat match, and liked Kofi/Dolph. Otherwise, the matches weren't that great.

The Punk angle really has me interested, because even if he's leaving it opens up so many options if they gave him the title. WWE showing good faith and actually giving him the title on the way out would be interesting. This is assuming he hasn't resigned.

But he could "travel" with it, to ROH and Japan. He could just sit out for a while and come back as the "true world champion". It could be a way to get a new title belt.

Will he walk out with the title? I doubt it just because it would be risky on WWE's part. But if they did it, it would be something they've never done before and would be really interesting.

That said, if he DOES walk out with it, that means that SummerSlam would likely be the end of a world title tournament, and that means a month, at best, to play out that storyline. Which is kind of rushing it.

We don't know if he's re-signed with a plan to let him sit out for a while, so it's not out of the question that he could win it.

One thing I DID notice was that he said his "contract with World Wrestling Entertainment is up". Wouldn't be surprised if he put that in just as a red herring for smarks, or it could be that he's re-signed with WWE, Inc.

From PWInsider:

On his Twitter account, CM Punk wrote the following:

"I knew I was gone at the beginning of the year. I just woke up one day and I knew. That's the way I work a lot of the time. I think it's creepy too, but it's really helpful. I knew I'd be history by July. Come say goodbye on July 17th. I promise to go out with a bang. Trust me. XxX"

Punk wrote a very similar blog when he was heading into his final announced ROH appearance, a bout where he was scheduled to challenge then-ROH champion Austin Aries. Some of the verbiage is actually the same. In that bout, Punk won the title and began a farewell speech, but then turned heel in the process and "took the belt hostage" for the summer, teasing he was going to deliver the belt to Vince McMahon. He would leave ROH several months later after losing the belt to James Gibson.

When Punk made his one return ROH appearance during a blizzard, by the way, he closed out that show by inviting the crowd out into the snow...to make snow angels.

===

That's really interesting, that it's mirroring his ROH departure. Which isn't surprising, but could be a sign that he'll take the belt hostage or something.

VSG
06-21-2011, 10:26 AM

Well the crowd won't mind Cena-Orton for the World title, and if Punk is indeed taking the title "hostage", I am sure he will be in the crowd or something with it.

Are you shitting me? the WWE would never let him walk as champ. Not after the Monday Night Wars.

He is going to lose clean to Cena in his farewell match, JUST LIKE JERICHO.

Then we might see him in a few years.

Xero
06-21-2011, 10:48 AM
You don't know if he's re-signed, though. Assuming he walks out with the title, I'm assuming he's under contract with WWE and getting booked through them (if he gets booked), not just walking around with the title in his possession out of the control of WWE.

I'm not saying him jobbing is out of the question. It's likely. But this whole thing is really to keep people guessing and, again, we don't know if he's signed for a short extension or a whole new contract.

The contract expiration is obviously a work. I don't doubt it's up in July (it's been said that it is), but I doubt it's that exact day. But it could be his last booking.

Schlomey
06-21-2011, 11:06 AM
his contract doesn't expire until September.

Which to me means that he wins the title and "leaves" until September and they do some sort of summer tourney.

Night of Champions is gone correct? King of the Ring with the title on the line instead would make up for the Holocaust in my eyes.

Hanso Amore

Occam's Razor

His contract is up in July, as has been reported for quite some time. He says on twitter he plans on leaving. The Angle is that it is his last match and he wants to win the title on the way out.

There is no work, there is no way he wins a title. they are giving him a big match on his way out, and Cena is going to win and go on to Main Event SUmmerslam with Del rio as they have planned for months.

So he wins the title, goes away for 2 months, and then shows up to leave again? Not following your logic here.

I think last night Mike Johnson said it expires in early July and he's working on an extension.

But I want the idea they came up with, have Punk with the WWE Title playing golf/sitting on a beach/relaxing.

Schlomey
06-21-2011, 11:15 AM
he doesn't leave again. These leaving rumors have been going on for months. They chose July to make it seem like he really is gone for good but come September he really is re-signed and back.

I bet he wins the title but before he can walk out he loses it to whoever wins Money in the Bank that night.

From PWInsider

The earlier "technical issue" WWE mentioned earlier today was a "voting backlog" from the Divas match that was counted towards the voting for Evan Bourne's opponent. So, fans that voted "B" for Kelly Kelly had their votes counted instead for Mason Ryan.

On WWE's Facebook, the company posted "Sham vote screws Sin Cara: WWE apologizes to the WWE Universe, Raw's "Power to the People" voters, and especially Sin Cara and Evan Bourne. The match vote was inaccurate due to a heavy backlog of votes from the Divas Title Match. More details on WWE.com throughout the day."
