CM Punk; WWE Has Me Hooked Again (2012 Official Pro Wrestling Thread)

[thablingster]

Ziggler's in ring work reminds me a lot of Shawn Michaels. He knows how to make guys look good and how to make himself look good. If they brand him right he can stand out as a heel.

[thablingster]

WWE.com put up a top 50 matches in RAW history link, it was interesting to scroll through and see some of the matches and some of the names. John Morrison came up a few different times, he was fun to watch in WWE. No surprise, a Cena match was number one. The surprise is he lost that match against Michaels.

[PrinceEatMeat]

I don't care if that was a Cena match, it still should be #1. That match was outstanding.

[thablingster]

I'm pretty much a fan of any Michaels match, so I didn't necessarily disagree.

[brettac1]

Bret Hart and 1-2-3 Kid would probably be my #1.

[BrewCrewForever]

Gotta say, I am super psyched for Raw 1,000 tomorrow. This is all set to happen:

 

Punk vs Cena WWE Title Match

DX Reunion

Permanent GM Announced

The Rock, Mick Foley & Bret Hart all set to appear

Bryan and AJ's Wedding

Lesnar & Heyman respond to Triple H

Christian defending IC title

Some payoff to the Heath Slater legends angle

 

Really seems up in the air as to what will happen in the WWE Title match. Could go either way.

[brettac1]

I would hope they do a screwed finish and have the rematch on PPV.

I would hope they do a screwed finish and have the rematch on PPV.

 

Seems possible if they want a Summerslam rematch. But rumors that Cena may win and face Rock for title at SS. We'll see, I sure hope Punk retains though.

 

Also just read Undertaker will return and I almost forgot we should see a continuing of the Ziggler/Jericho feud that started last Monday. Really looking forward to that.

[patrickgpe]

yeah this raw tomorrow should be up there with summerslam and wrestlemania. looking forward to it.

[brettac1]

It looks like a Vince Russo show with 30 angles and 28 that no one will remember the next day.

[PrinceEatMeat]

Jericho posted a video saying he'll be the one people are talking about after Monday. I hope something big happens involving him.

Lots of rumored returns tonights, so should be interesting to see how they fit everything in. Definitely has a PPV feel to it.

They'll have to cut out the normal crap they do to fit it all in, which will make this a really good show. Probably PPV quality. The rest of the 3 hours Raws from now on probably won't end that way. At least this one will be good though, so I'm looking forward to it.

[patrickgpe]

probably most looking forward to the AJ / Bryan wedding and Heath Slaters segment.

[patrickgpe]

the list is crazy of those who will be part of the show

 

* Billy Gunn

* Bob Backlund

* Bret Hart

* Diamond Dallas Page

* “Hacksaw” Jim Duggan

* Jim Ross,

* John “Bradshaw” Layfield

* Mae Young

* “Mean” Gene Okerlund

* Mick Foley

* Psycho Sid

* Road Warrior Animal

* Ron Simmons

* “Rowdy” Roddy Piper

* Ryan Shamrock

* X-Pac

* The Undertaker

* Michelle McCool

* Stone Cold Steve Austin

 

also rumor is Green Day will be performing

[Outlander]

I would like to see Carlito come back someday, doubt it will happen today or anytime soon though.

[PrinceEatMeat]

AJ is the new Raw GM. Interesting decision there. I'm intrigued.

[patrickgpe]

me too, i like it

[brettac1]

I would assume that that will be Flair as soon as they can get him once the TNA lawsuit is done. She's the closest thing they have to a hot hand right now, I guess.

[radman12484]

The good thing about having a female GM is that she will more then likely never been in a Main Event at a PPV. At least I hope so.

[patrickgpe]

rock's announcement leads me to think Cena is beating Punk tonight

 

happy that Miz won, his title reign should be interesting to say the least

[PrinceEatMeat]

I doubt AJ ends up with the role for an extended period of time, but I like the move right now. I agree that Flair is a possibility down the road.

[PrinceEatMeat]

I have a feeling that Cena won't be holding the title at the Rumble, but it's possible. I feel like if they were gonna do a Rock/Cena rematch then they would hold it back until WrestleMania 29. It's hard to imagine the Rock not winning the title at the Rumble, and would they really have Cena job to him twice? I could see Rock winning it, Brock wins the Rumble, and then they face each other at Mania.

[brettac1]

Why not just have Rock lose to Cena at the Rumble, win the Rumble match, and lose to Cena again at Mania?

[PrinceEatMeat]

Well, Punk just turned heel. That. Was. Awesome.
