Their TV match showed me that they left a lot of money on the table. Also, during the time Cena and Punk were still going, Hunter could have been built up as this COO that does things for the good of the company and not gotten into any altercations. So when Hunter and Punk's match finally came around at, say, the build to Survivor Series, it would have been more believable.

Instead, they shoehorn Hunter into their match at SummerSlam, hotshot the title to Del Rio because they're touring Mexico and bring in Kevin fucking Nash for a feud with Punk.

Punk didn't need to be the champion, but he and Cena needed a rubber match on PPV to keep Punk's momentum going. If that happened, and at NOC had Cena win in some bullshit way, say what they did at SummerSlam but reversed (with Hunter as the ref), and then had Del Rio cash in on Cena, things would have been a lot better off. Then you'd have a logical reason for Cena vs. Del Rio and Punk would have legit heat with Hunter because he didn't officiate the match correctly.

It really only would have taken an extra month and no Kevin Nash to make this whole thing make sense and work well.
Of course what you described is what should have been done, and is better...

But it wasn't what they did. So just sit back, relax, Taker it Easy, and...
