*CM Punk Money in the Bank*

**The One** · 04-17-2009, 01:03 AM

Am I the only one hoping that this time, maybe, just maybe, he cashes in the briefcase and *gasp* doesn't win?

I'm sorry, but I simply can not buy CM Punk as a credible World Champion. Much like if Rey had ever won a World Title I wouldn't have been able to count that either. There are some guys who have NO PROBLEM getting over with the crowd, and truly, don't need the belt. Remember when people could have lively discussions about the best guy to never win a World Belt? Seriously...who's the last guy that was over enough to be a World Title contender that didn't win it at least once? Scott Hall? (maybe Kennedy, but I'd need convincing)

What I'm getting at here is somehow in this day and age it's become like a dirty mark of shame to NOT have won a World Title. Doesn't that kind of defeat the point of having someone be "The Best" if it's treated with a revolving door policy?

I'm kind of loosing focus here, and at this point Punk has already won a big one, so it kind of it moot...but I'm still holding out that he cashes in and doesn't win.

(Side Note: I fully expect him to take one of the belts to SmackDown at Backlash)

TOVO Fact: Tovo's favorite ladder match? Jericho/Benoit...bet 99% are shocked to hear that.
