yankees punchline is so good

 

[sledger]

Haha those boos for Cena's entrance. So vociferous.

 

[sledger]

Is there any more of that? Could be transcendent like Public Enemy imo.

edit: Seriously despite all his gripes he was seriously over before he turned on the audience. Do whatever it takes to bring him back.

There are more videos on YouTube. Some where he's actually in the ring with HHH and shoots on him to his face.

 

[duffer]

Seriously he's making me hate Cena so much. Also the Kliq remote control joke

Haha, he was over even after he turned on the audience tbh. A definite tweener in many ways - don't see many of those anymore.

But yeah, he's not coming back. Having just read the abridged version of the Colt Cabana podcast, Punk revealed that after he walked out the E in fact fired him on his wedding day. Apparently they tried to get him to sign a non-disparagement agreement, but he refused and said he would only agree to that if they went back to Chicago and apologise and admit they were lying when they called him a quitter on RAW, and that they fired him on his wedding day. He also says that he absolutely hates pro-wrestling now, and he will never, ever, consider a working relationship with the E again.

So yeah...there you have it. The situation is basically as cordial as was post-screw job WWF and Bret Hart.

Edit: Suffice to say, the podcast is defo worth a listen. Pretty incredible stuff, as Srizza said.

Can't believe I'm getting nostalgic about something that happened barely 3 years ago, but damn that was such a great time to watch wrestling. That entire Punk storyline was beyond phenomenal and that month leading up to Money in the Bank was the most excited I'd been for any angle probably ever.

Best thing about Punk's pipebomb was that after his mic was cut off (which was how it was planned), Punk went backstage half dreading how Vince would react. Apparently Vince simply smiled and said to him "I smell money"

So basically Punk was legitimately not going to re-sign cos he hate the way the WWE was run, and when it leaked they made it into an angle?

Yeah, ind33d. What made the payoff so great was that at the time he won the WWE title nobody knew he had re-signed.

"I'd like to think that this company will be better off after Vince McMahon's dead, but the fact is it's going to get taken over by his idiotic daughter and his doofus son in law"

Not doing his missus any favours is he?

Not at all, I suspect. Apparently AJ's relationship with the WWE management has gone down the tubes - she's expected to leave/get fired in the near future.

Shame really, as she's one of the best divas they've had in absolutely ages. But I guess she is between a rock and a hard place.

Yep. And she got squashed in like 2 minutes at Survivor Series. Rumoured to be on her way out.

Vince truly is the ultimate heel.

The former WWE Divas champion landed verbal knockout punches on The Bella Twins the likes of which fans have not witnessed since her real-life husband, CM Punk, was delivering his "pipebombs" on a weekly basis.

"Talent is not ***ually transmitted," she informed Brie and new champion Nikki on Monday night, implying that their relationships with Daniel Bryan and John Cena, respectively, do not make them better wrestlers.

It was a single line that reminded fans of why they fell in love with the petite New Jerseyan in the first place. She is different from the rest of the prototypical Divas and can be very vocal when the time arises.

AJ Pipebombs on RAW.

HFBoards - View Single Post - WWE: CM Punk Discussion Thread - Punk opens up on Cabana's podcast

based on that, there's no way wwe lawyers dont try to get the podcast taken down right

 

[Jono]

Its already down isn't it?

 

[Jono]

Oh no it works but link on CW isnt working.

Listening to it now and the parts on Ryback and Batista are great.

Edit: fantastic interview that. The stuff about the staph interview... wow.

 

[OverratedSanity]

For anyone who missed the entire Punk leaving with the title saga after Money in the Bank 2011, here's a great video. Mere days after winning the title and leaving through the crowd, Punk made a surprise appearance and interrupted a comic con panel which had HHH and Stephanie talking about crowning a new "legit" WWE champion. HHH and Punk exchange some great barbs at each other and it's just all round great stuff, and the crowd there went nuts for it.

 

[andmark]

Would urge anyone who hasn't to watch all of the Punk-Cena match. Incredible match with the crowd damaging the roof with the marking out.

He did seem like an arrogant prick outside the ring though
