RECAP

I would like to apologize for not posting in a while. Been very busy doing other things and just have not had the opportunity. But lets recap what has gone on while I have been away.

CM Punk has had one of the most memorable months in wrestling history. People cannot stop talking about him nor should they. I have always liked CM Punk. Not only is he one of the best in the squared circle but his skills on the microphone are second to none. For those of you that don't know Punk announced he was leaving the WWE after the Money In The Bank pay per view. After he beat John Cena for the WWE Title. In the weeks that followed he would make more announcements saying how he was the best wrestler in the world (he is). And how the WWE is being run by, lets just say, people who shouldn't be running it.

Punk backed up everything he said. He beat Cena for the title and left. Now if anyone believed that Punk was not under contract at the time needs their head examined. There was no way Vince McMahon would let his WWE Title leave his company and go somewhere else. This was all a story line and has been played perfectly. Just go back and watch Punk's promos starting with the one on June 27.

Punk makes some great points. Why is Dewayne "The Rock" Johnson in the main event at Wrestlemania. Punk and other wrestlers work their a** off day in and day out in that ring and deserve to be in the main event. Where has The Rock been since last years Wrestlemania? Certainly not in a WWE ring.


Punk and Cena have a great match at the pay per view. Really one of Cena's best in a long time. It is a memorable match and if anybody has not seen it needs to go and download it right now.


The only thing going on on SmackDown is the feud between Christian and Randy Orton. Christian has been trying to get the belt back ever since losing it two days after he won it. After many opportunities and bad referee calls he had not succeeded until Money In The Bank pay per view where Orton got himself disqualified and lost the title.

Those are the only two stories, really worth talking about quite frankly it is all about PUNK.

Now onto last nights RAW. They opened the show by crowning a new champion after Rey Mysterio beat the Miz. A decent match but nothing special. In fact nothing on this night was special because everybody was waiting to see if CM Punk would show up.

As the new man in charge, HHH came out did a little speech brought Jim Ross back to the announce team and made a title match for later that night. Mysterio vs Cena. Are you kidding me? Why dose Cena get the shot at a phony title? He lost his last match and in order to have a rematch for the title the real champ has to be there and he has 30 days to defend his championship. Again all part of a bigger storyline but the WWE treats their fans as idiots who don't know anything about wrestling.

Of course Cena wins and god forbid he doesn't have a title to put around his waist for more than a couple months. At the end of the night, was the moment that everyone was waiting for. CM Punk's music blared and he walked to the ring with the real WWE title. Cena held up his title saying he was the real champ a few fans cheered. Punk hold the real title up saying he is the real champion and the crowd goes nuts.

After Raw goes off the air, Punk grabs a mic and says two words. Two words everyone wanted to hear. "I'm Back!" Two words in my mind that he didn't have to say because he never left.
