LooseCannon Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 It is kinda funny that getting chokeslammed through a table by Kane may be Punk's big send-off. I'm disappointed his send-off won't be putting over Alexander Rusev at Wrestlemania. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Fresh Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Daffney is having a GoFundMe for an autographical audiobook. In these two videos she (apparently, I haven't watched yet) talks in depth about her court case against TNA. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eeW8ZhOiEsk http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ew-AT3Ymp-c Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Playa Shunna Ver 3.0 Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Rumblings are this whole Punk thing is a work. He is going to return as the New Fake Sting after the real Sting debuts in a few weeks. They gave him the roll because HHH wants him to wear a shirt while wrestling. It is what's best for business. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LooseCannon Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Rumblings are that AJ Lee is a huge Batista fan and Punk was worried he would get Josh Matthewed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig H Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 I think he's in the right to go home and it solves a problem about what to do with Daniel Bryan. Punk going home frees up HHH vs Bryan so Bryan gets into a higher profile match. And I don't think Punk sits out for a whole year, but I do think he sits out until at least Money in the Bank or Summerslam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebbie Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Didn't read the last few pages, but DB does what Punk does and does it better: ability to brainwash fans into psychos, promos you'd wish were better for all the hype they get, and matches deemed bestest best match ever before they happen. 'Cept Db isn't a raging, bitter cunt while DB is marrying the good Bella. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reggie20x6 Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Maybe Vince and Triple H need to look seriously at why all his top stars except Cena seemingly have a nervous breakdown, leave, and can only stand to be there part-time. Lesnar, Batista, Punk, Jericho, Austin (though that was mostly injury-related), I guess even Lashley... Vince has been a workaholic for decades. So in his POV, they're the ones with the problem, not him But the schedule these days is Raw, Smackdown, two days off, three house shows from Friday to Sunday. That seems ripe for improvement as I've noted before. Move SD tapings off of Tuesday to make it 4 on/3 off There is NOTHING wrong with the current schedule. Friday - House Show Saturday - House Show Sunday - House Show or PPV Monday - RAW Tuesday - SmackDown Wednesday - Travel Home Thursday - Travel to House Show Look at all that free time! Pansies. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig H Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 I forget who mentioned it, and maybe multiple wrestlers have said as much, but for each show, don't they need to show up really early? I thought in all, they're spending like 8 to 10 hours at whatever arena they're at, which includes the time for the show itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jrag Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 DB does what Punk does and does it better Err... They are like polar opposites except for the fan support. DB is the best at elevating his opponent, works hard no matter what horrible program he gets stuck in and is average at best on the mic. That opening promo on Raw last week was super cringey. Please never say "Yes Movement" again, DB. Please. Punk can carry the mic work for pretty much any feud, elevates his work in the big moments or against the best opponents and generally checks out if they stick him in something horrible. Even back in their ROH days they were always different. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jiji Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Punk's babyface promos are not very good. At least not in this whole generic, vanilla babyface push he's been getting the last half a year or so. He's been made to look like superman, winning 3 v 1 handicap matches and the like, mailed it in for those performances, and now goes home. Good job, good effort.

Good Wade, those "too cool for school" crowds are going to be the absolute fucking worst if this is true about Punk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a status update on the Barridoff Galleries facebook page that has now been deleted. It said something like "Chikara acquired from Titor. A different kind of art, but art nonetheless." Titor is a fictional company, and Barridoff Galleries are owned by Robbie Ellis, a wrestler who's worked for Chikara, so I got the impression that it was all just storyline. Chikara is no longer under Titor's thumb, so now they can start doing shows again. In theory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
