I loved CM Punk's promo from SmackDown! *Spoilers*
I only came in a bit into it, but CM Punk was calling himself "the choice of a new generation."
![]() But what intrigues me about it, is that Punk was talking about his "one vice." He's talked about being addicted to competition in the past, but he mentioned an "Anaconda" during his description of it. I wonder if this is to build-up the Anaconda Vice for Breaking Point? Pfft |

Much love for the Punker these days...the heel Punk was what I was waiting for...though I'm waiting for it to go further still. I don't want him to turn into a HHH-style heel, and just repeat the same bloody thing over and over with the straight-edge thing. (Yes H, we get it, you're the goddamn Game.)
And I think the volume could go up a little louder...he needs a little glam imo. ![]() |

And the more I think about it, Punk locking on the Anaconda Vice on Taker after taker had been busted open or something (Just this once, it's PPV, fuck the no blood policy) seems like a good way to end that match.

Yeah, SmackDown! airs 3.30pm Friday here. It's almost finished here. The Rey Mysterio/John Morrison match was incredible, and I am loving Drew McIntyre's character so far. Basically, he is pissed off that R-Truth got beat-up by him last week, and got booked, but McIntyre has been left off the card. So he's kicking the crap out of him again until he gets noticed.
Eve Torres has also improved fucking heaps in the ring, and Layla has come a long way. Still think that the division should be centred on fucking Natalya, though. JR also referenced the Anaconda Vice during CM Punk's match with Matt Hardy. So maybe we'll see it make a comeback of sorts? |

Alright, just watched the opening segment from the start...amazing. The video recap of Punk beating Jeff, and then some highlights of Jeff's career were great. Then CM Punk coming out to Jeff's music was just hilarious. From his dancing to the reactions of the crowd. Pissing themselves with excitement, to being legitimately pissed off at Punk. There are some great potential gifs in there.

Yeah, my take on Punk's promo was "I have only one vice...and it's the Anaconda Vice" but obviously Matt Hardy interupted.
I don't see why they didn't take the opportunity to have Punk "take out" Mysterio after his match with Morrison. They've not bothered to write him out for his 30 day stretch but they did make a big issue of it on WWE.com. Why not have Punk beat down Rey due to his Wellness Issues? |

Might be alright. Just two big fucks wailing on each other with kendo sticks. Probably better than a normal Khali match.

I'm actually thinking CM Punk might retain the World Heavyweight Title now. Even using the Anaconda Vice. It would be a huge "told you so" moment for Punk. Especially considering Taker has been dominating this feud by Chokeslamming Punk every week. Taker can then get at Punk in Hell in a Cell.

SmackDown! also reeked of protecting Matt Hardy. Technically, he should have a disqualification victory over Punk, which would qualify him for a World Title match. I'm not saying they will go that direction, but Punk still has other options left for him if the fans lose interest in Taker as a challenger (which is hard to imagine happening).

The Rey/Morrison match pretty much stole the show for me that was freaking awesome considering there likely wasn't much preperation for it. Hell even knowing what the outcome would be it still almost looked like Rey somehow might win. I'm afraid Punk will end up being a transitional champion as I suspect Orton will overcome Cena once again and WWE doesn't seem to like having 2 heel champions on their major shows. Plus the fact that Taker does the job even less than even Trips and HBK but it would be nice to be wrong in this case. Gonna have to say the same for Morrison he's now just more or less keeping the belt warm until he faces Dolph but I'm hoping this one turns out to be a great match too.

I actually can't see Dolph Ziggler winning the IC Title at Breaking Point. I think with Morrison being a fresh choice as champion, they have a really close battle, but Morrison gets the win with a roll-up, or something. Just because Morrison had the belt hot-shotted to him, doesn't mean that it has to be hot-shotted off him. Let him go over Ziggler, and then have tensions build like they were with Rey Mysterio.
I can also see this leading to John Morrison & Melina vs. Dolph Ziggler & Maria, which could be the best intergender match in some fucking time. |

Yeah, to be honest I think Morrison jobbing to Ziggler would be a baddd move. Would def kill some momentum Morrison has got going.
As for Smackdown - what a great show. CM Punk as Jeff Hardy and the crowd reactions were absolutely brilliant. |

I love they way they've left the Punk/Hardy story in limbo. If Jeff doesn't come back, it makes Punk look like such a complete asshole for running the most popular guy in the company out of town and rubbing it in the fans' faces. If Jeff does come back, the revenge storyline will be great.
