Alright, here's my thoughts on the matter. I thought it was incredible watching it last night. The whole program was a great show. Up and Down the entire program. It was a nice breath of fresh air. But don't expect it to last long folks.
Anyway, back to Punk. Like I said, very cool segment. I do agree with Rob on certain points. I actually think Punk should of won the Title a while ago. He had more momentum back then. Last night he kind of acted like a heel. Coming in when Batista already did all the work and then jumping up and down saying hurry up and ring the bell. Like he didn't want to even give Edge a fight. Little odd for a babyface. Really, the whole win was cheap and I do wish he could of won it in a match on PPV.
But like someone else said, this is 2008. Belts are worth a crap. Nothing is built anymore. Everything is rushed. And most things are done for the now. It's terrible and not the way to build a show, but it's realistic. So in saying that, Punks win was fun. It came off great on live TV. I thought they did a good job of saving his win from being cheap by having him beat JBL at the end of the show.
How long will his run last? It will end at Summerslam, if not sooner. It definately does not look like they are positioning him as a long term champ.
