Allegedly Punk fulfilled all his contractual obligations too (unlike Austin who literally walked out). I don't know about Punk outside the ring and I try to leave that out when it comes to in ring because it doesn't matter in terms of that.

Either way, I miss having Punk on my TV.

Not sure this is true. I know he was booked for shows that he didn't attend.

To be fair, Vince was a ruthless businessman as he built the WWE. He put a lot of smaller promotions out of business and had no qualms stealing their talent. But that ruthless streak is something all successful businessmen have.

His father taught him that though, may as well have been taught by a rockefeller or vanderbilt.


As far as wrestling tonight, the consistent matches with Luke Harper tell me that he is something freakish athletically. He isn't like Cena when he goes up top to try it, he pulled off that Hurricanrana to a standing drop kick like it was absolutely nothing. That dude can flat wrestle, and absolutely has upper mid card talent already. There is so much underutilized talent in WWE right now, Ziggler, Kofi Kingston, etc. I wish they'd just find a way to make all the belts sort of important again like they used to so we'd have REASONS to watch the mid card again.

At least its not as terrible as the Divas division though.

All the young guys make me wonder if they should pull the old NWA TV title out of mothballs with the stipulation it's defended every Raw and Smackdown. You could showcase some matches that way.

I think WWE is actually solid programming right now, but look at all the young talent they have.

They have a perfect position to give a young star a break with this Bryan injury and make someone a star, and they most likely are going to give the belt to Randy Orton, Kane, or 46 year old Dave Batista. Guys that were fighting for the belts when I was in middle school.

Barrett was fighting for the WWE title in 2010. He just got another push in 2014. Alberto Del Rio and Dolph Ziggler held the heavyweight title last summer. They can't even get an IC title shot over 40 something year old RVD. Swagger won the heavyweight title a couple years ago and he's in a fued with a guy named Adam Rose, whose catchphrase is "Don't be a lemon, be a rosebud." Antonio Cesaro is in the same spot as last year even with Paul Heyman in his corner. Shemaus was the next big thing and is a multiple time WWE champion and they have no idea what to do with him. They turned him heel a month ago and now is a face again.

They really, really need to elevate some of the mid-card.

If word leaked Punk was returning to WWE and would be the next champ, you'd be giddy as a little school girl. :)

Punk walking onto the stage, sitting down with his pipebomb, and informing the world of his "master plan" to get the belt back

Chicago would party like it's 1871.

Hey Vince, what was that? $350 million that you lost IN A DAY?

Oh, and your company has been in a steady decline since...oh yeah...I LEFT.

You and the WWE need ME. I AM YOUR SAVIOR, YOUR STRAIGHT. EDGE. SAVIOR.
