[quote][i]Originally posted by the goon[/i] [quote][i]Originally posted by mooseheadjack[/i] And so far, we are 45 minutes into RAW and we have had two squash matches and a no-contest for a whopping 7 minutes or so of wrestling [/quote] There's no way Orton/McIntyre was a squash. Yeah, Orton won, but McIntyre got to look surprisingly competitive for a guy who hasn't been on TV since I don't know when. And I would normally agree about the match times, but having the near 30-minute six on six match kind of made up for it in my book. [quote][i]Originally posted by Stu[/i] "Complete Afterthoughts" don't main event 4 PPVs in a row, 3 of which are title matches, 2 of which they win. "Complete Afterthoughts" aren't continuously given exposure and as much mic time as Punk has, even since the angle has cooled off a bit. "Complete Afterthoughts" aren't booked to look as strong in defeat as Punk was, what with all the general punishment of a triple threat match, in a HIAC, plus going through a table, plus getting pinned(not made to tap out) due to a lead pipe beating. "Complete Afterthoughts" do not get the company shelling out for the rights to license theme music like Punk has, or as much merchandise for him as he has. Not being champion or being in another championship match (yet, since the PPV was only last fucking night) does not make you a "Complete Afterthought". WWE COULD be doing more with Punk, sure, and they WERE doing more with him not too long ago, but overall, by their standards, this is a push, and he's still in a much better place than he was six months ago. This is not me saying "wait and see", this is me saying all things considered, Punk should be pretty happy with where he is right now, because he's been in much worser spots. [/quote] I pretty much agree with this. Yeah, they dropped the ball on the Punk angle by inserting Triple H/Nash, but as Stu said the guy has main-evented four PPVs in a row (going over Cena in two of them) and you can probably make that five come Survivor Series. So yeah, I won't argue they derailed what they had going, but this is easily the best spot Punk has ever been in in the WWE. And the current Miz/Truth stuff is going so well that I feel they've kind of righted things after messing up the Punk angle, even if Punk isn't directly involved. [quote][i]Originally posted by Cherokee Jack[/i] Haha, the comment "Kayfabe lives!" was visible at the bottom of the screen during Miz and Truth's Youtube video. [/quote] I thought that was pretty hilarious as well and almost wondered if some production guy left that visible as a joke. But no, they probably just missed it. [/quote]
