No champion in the history of wrestling, boxing or MMA (and it's all the same so don't argue it ain't) has drawn money as a weak champion. Not a single one.

Some people understand wrestling booking is used to MAKE MONEY. Some don't. You are obviously the latter.
It's your sunny attitude that makes you so desirable to converse with; you know that, right?

Also, had Punk been given more than JBL to beat on, I'm sure he could have looked plenty strong. And taking the title off of him, even in the ridiculous Scramble match, would have made him look stronger? Also, Jericho's match with HBM did make him look pretty tough. And his title win made him look like a fucking weasel. So, he's a resiliant, sneaky heel...and that's bad?


Don't get me wrong; I know Punk's title run has been less than stellar, to say the least. But I'd hardly call it a failure, because it gives him something to build on down the road. I'd definitely say it gave him a solid base to work with, and if that's considered failure, then I think we need to take a moment and define our terms.
