So, Backlash *ECW/SmackDown! Spoilers*

The story seemed to be that Shelton wanted the contract, and he's going after Punk. We'll probably get a better idea in coming weeks. I'm fairly certain we'll see CM Punk do something like defend it in some form. We might even get one of those "title vs. contract" scenarios that Rob Van Dam and Shelton Benjamin had two years back, with Punk facing Jericho (after a move to RAW).

A bunch of people doing something stupid in the past doesn't make it smart. It's just as infuriating as "risking your WM title shot" after winning the Rumble. It's fucking dumb.
