He and Bryan ruled that show. Everyone got outshined, even Punk and AJ.

AJ outshone everyone that wasn't Bryan.

She wore a suit and pulled sexy faces.
She did Light It Up multiple times. You know, between asking for Twitter and Touts and basic matches any GM would have made.
They really need to get her in a feud with another diva soon, even if it's Eve.

I love how you say "even Punk and AJ". Two people that didn't even do anything yesterday, lol.

Maybe I'm retarded, but CM Punk calling out Jerry Lawler on his bullshit was an even bigger deal to me than nailing The Rock for his bullshit. The only minus from Punk was his regression towards the end of the show back into cowardice.
But that slight is nowhere near enough to negate two segments dedicated to exposing Jerry Lawler for the idiot buffoon that he is. Hopefully next week Punk can bring in law enforcement to haul away that douchebag pedophile.
Don't even.

What a cop out answer, by that logic your mother is in WWE12.....well okay that's not the case, at least I don't think so.
I bet that book contains all the wrestlers I mentioned in my earlier post, that's enough! THAT'S ENOUGH!
I'm not trying to be difficult here, but I thought the Punk stuff was overrated. He didn't call Lawler out on his BS. All he told him was "Rock isn't the WWE universe, he's just one man". He could have said so much more. I think people have just been so tired of Faux-Cena Punk that they're expectations were so low that anything could have met them last night from Punk. It's a decent start, but he really didn't do much to Lawler. Maybe he should have talked about how one sided Lawler is, or how his ability to commentate and his interest in the product has been dwindling for years. That would have been calling him out on his BS.

Did you have the sound off during the main event or something?

Dammit KOG, you've just set off Maven's theme music in the head of everyone here.
Who?
I don't remember him saying much during the main event, honestly. Although, I actually liked Punk getting in AJ's face, as I thought it helped signify a heel change.
Speaking of him getting in AJ's face... I still wonder why he asked AJ "Are you Crazy?!??!" when a month ago he knew she was crazy.

It is complete.
Heel turn means you don't remember anything you did as a face.
but but but... AJ is crazy no matter what.
According to WWE logic, this is the first time that AJ and Punk have interacted.
That house show tag team match is actually awesome.
Jericho and Ryder v Ziggler and Miz... I'd watch that.
I wonder if Heel Punk digs crazy chicks.

That was the worst part for me. Punk should be genre-savvy enough to know that every GM in the history of wrestling would have done the exact same damn thing. Fantasy booking: Punk should have cut AJ off as soon as she walked out and announced the Summerslam match as a triple threat between the him/Show/Cena.
Instead he ended up looking like the Miz.
As for the commentary, Best and Worst summarizes it better than I could:
Cena hasn't changed in seven years, which is mindblowing considering how all of the shit he's done should have evolved him. I think the only television show to ever have such a stagnant protagonist would be Inspector Gadget.

No he digs logical ones.
From now on Razorskin will bring us the return of four star matches! Great feuds!
Nah Inspector Gadget turned heel a few times.

Heel Punk is straight edge. But he does like to see a woman shave her head. weird
That's it? That one line is him calling Lawler out on his BS? Every announcer in the WWE is deliberately told to ignore the match, and build stories. King sucks, but "pushing agendas" is silly. Besides, King is the color commentator. He's not supposed to call the match. He's always had an agenda. Heel King working with JR back in 98 or 99 always had an agenda, and it's what made him great. His problem, and he's said this in interviews, is that he just doesn't care anymore, especially not about commentating.

Goku? I mean he got taller, then shorter, then taller again I guess, but personality-wise he's pretty much always been the same.

At the show now. Apparently we get to see Superstars being filmed due to the fire last night. But no fireworks.
