WWE Breaking Point 2009

[Mr. C]

We're only three weeks away...

The Undertaker chokes CM Punk out in Hell’s Gates. The referee then announces that the title can only change hands on an actual submission and takes the belt from Undertaker, then the next month, Undertaker puts Punk over in Hell In A Cell.

If the finish of Breaking Point ends with Undertaker going crazy on Punk after he retains, they could tell a great story at Hell In A Cell by setting their match apart from other Hell In A Cells in history. If Undertaker makes his entrance into Hell In A Cell first, Punk can refuse to get into the ring, and they can brawl in the crowd before the match actually begins, then the match can start with Undertaker rolling Punk into the ring. Punk escapes the cell and tries to get away. Undertaker batters Punk outside the cell and beats him all the way around until they're on the announcers' side. Punk tries to climb up to escape, but Undertaker grabs him halfway and gives him a Last Ride off the side of the cell through the table.

Still, the idea of Undertaker wreaking havoc and Punk breaking out the Anaconda Vice and retaining the title would be too awesome to pass up. However, can we really see Punk making Undertaker tap out? Punk has to retain, though, and shenanigans at this Pay-Per-View leading into Hell In A Cell would be magnificent.

Punk vs. Undertaker could actually make for a Casket Match at Survivor Series to end the feud.

I honestly think that Punk vs Taker in the Cell will be what makes Punk a legit force.

[Droford]

I was glad they solved the "how will Orton win a submission match vs Cena when he doesn't have a Submission hold" situation by making it an I quit match...

[mike adamle]

The only thing I don't like about this AT THE MOMENT is that it's gonna be a Hell In A Cell match next month. Most Hell In A Cell matches have months of build and this will only have a month and half. Not saying it's not gonna be epic, it most likely will.

[Londoner]

I just can't picture how matches between taker/punk will go. Or finish.

[James Diesel]

Punk could bring up his past and pull out either the Devil Lock or the .45 Special.....

[Favre4Ever]

Taker putting Punk over would be huge. But who honestly thinks that WWE would do that?

[Xero]

No way Taker's going over in the end. This is Punk's rise.

I believe Taker always has what's best in mind for the business, and right now it's to put Punk over huge. I'm sure he'd fight for it.

[CSL]

I honestly don't need to see another Undertaker HIAC match atm

And whilst it's probably a big ask of him nowadays given just how broken down he is, I wouldn't be suprised to see him go over in the end and get a title run into Wrestlemania. Punk/Taker at Mania? I definitely watch that. Punk should be brilliant in the antagonistic dark promos that Taker's opponents always cut.

[Mr. Nerfect]

I'm trying to think about how the WWE might have CM Punk retain the World Heavyweight Title at Breaking Point without having Taker tap (because they won't do that). My thinking is that because BP is in Montreal, Punk will somehow work out a screwjob scenario to keep the title, which gets Taker pissed and Hell in a Cell signed.

Or the WWE will just put the World Heavyweight Title on Taker. I mean, as long as Punk comes out World Heavyweight Champion at the end, right? Taker wins the title at either Breaking Point or Hell in a Cell, and then drops the title to Punk at Bragging Rights or Survivor Series. Done.

[Mr. C]

I think they'll pull the same thing they did at Rock Bottom in 1998 when Mankind made The Rock pass out to the Mandible Claw and won the match, but Rock retained the title because he never officially tapped. Undertaker chokes Punk out in Hell's Gates, and the referee calls for the bell. Justin Roberts announces, "The winner of this match and NEW World Heavyweight Champion, The Undertaker!" Then the referee leans over and whispers something to Roberts, who announces that Undertaker wins the match, but the only way to become champion is by pinfall or submission, and since Punk didn't say "I quit" or tap out, still the World Heavyweight Champion, CM Punk. After the match, Undertaker goes crazy on Punk, and Hell In A Cell is signed.

Punk losing the title, only to beat Undertaker in a Hell In A Cell to regain the title next month? The hotshotting of the title would be a little ridiculous with that.

[Pardeep 619]

IIRC Undertaker has never lost a match via submission, and I think he's only ever tapped out once to Angle where Taker pinned him at the same time. I'm calling shennanigans that will lead to CM Punk retaining somehow (maybe a dazed referee sees Taker tapping but it's actually CM Punk using grabbing Takers hand or arm and making him tap?)

[Xero]

Was talking to MC about that and she suggested him going out via KO. I don't think Taker has ever lost via KO and it would give Punk a first without making Taker look weak.

No way Taker's tapping.

[Afterlife]

I bet Taker taps. I would love for Punk to start calling him "The Undertapper".

[Cool King]

I bet Taker taps. I would love for Punk to start calling him "The Undertapper".

It's better than being called The Underquaker anyways.

Big Show beat Undertaker by KO at No Mercy 2008

[Xero]

Okay, there goes the first. Still works, though.

[What Would Kevin Do?]

Punk will be put over in the long run, even if he doesn't come out on top in the feud. This is Punk's first real feud with part of the old guard in WWE. Punk will go farther holding his own against Taker, even if he loses, then he will destroying Jeff Hardy.

Imagine how badass Punk would look if he crucified Taker to his straight edge X.

[Calamondin]

I'm not really sure how this match is going to turn out. I just don't see their styles meshing well, so it could be a train wreck. But it's fresh and I'm excited for it, which is something I haven't been able to say lately.

[What Would Kevin Do?]

It'll work. It's going to be Punk dodging Taker, using a lot of speed, kicking his legs alot, etc, etc. It'll pretty much be a game of cat and mouse, with Punk constantly escaping Taker, just so the crowd can go nuts when Taker finally gets his hands on him.

[Mr. Nerfect]

I can see Taker and Punk meshing up really well in the ring, though. I think we may see Punk lose the World Heavyweight Title to Taker at Breaking Point, though, and then lose Hell in a Cell. I think Bragging Rights or Survivor Series could be where Punk wins it back.

CM Punk is either a three or a four-time WWE World Champion now, depending on whether or not you count the ECW Title. I can see him getting the Edge treatment where he continuously drops the title, and then wins it back just 'cause.
