I've said it before, I'll say it again.

A punk/miz feud over having childhood dreams and characters they played up to their WWE careers could have been white hot~

 

[Thorakai]

How do you even determine who carries who.

 

[Sephzilla]

How do you even determine who carries who.

I would say who puts in more work to make most of the spots look good? See Daniel Bryan vs Roman Reigns at WWE Fast Lane

Who's calling the match.

or this

 

[Toki767]

How do you even determine who carries who.

Watch Bryan vs Reigns.

Or watch an Ultimate Warrior vs Rick Rude/Macho Man match.

 

[Macho Madness]

How do you even determine who carries who.

Who's calling the match.

 

[Dick Justice]

We're into it.

They're trying to get as much heat on Miz as possible before Mizdow stands up for himself.

They're trying to make it as meaningful as they can for a mid-card feud so they're milking the character for now.

I'd wager we get Mizdow turning on Miz at Raw After Mania.

Mizdow will return to his greatest form afterwards.

 

[Striker]

He did a good job being led, so I disagree. Maybe saying he was totally carried was too much, but Punk did carry him on my opinion.

And Punk is that good.

He's fine. But people tend to overrate his matches. Like the Cena match at MitB 2011, people act like it was Savage and Steamboat.

More than anything else, I hated the booking in his match with Lesnar at SummerSlam. Why am I suppose to believe a former UFC Champion who weighs 300 lbs. needs assistance in taking out a guy who looks like he barely weighs 215 lbs. and has little muscle?

 

[Biggest-Geek-Ever]

Match was awesome, goddamn you marks.

 

[RP912]

Since we on the topic of Punk..... was he really "Best in the World" to anybody?

Despite his long title reign and some of his good matches...was it all hyped or was it legit?

The reason why I asked this because over the past year since Punk's new line of employment, there have been wrestlers that blew him out of the water including AJ Styles who really backed up his shit during his transformation to 5 o' clock shadow. It felt like I fell for the hype because of "Summer of Punk". I'm not saying he's not a bad wrestler at all but clearly dude was Piper with better wrestling moves because Daniel Bryan, Cesaro, AJ Styles, and even Austin Aries can put on a better match than him.

I'm just being real.

Whoa,Punk vs cena is better than savage vs steamboat

 

[Aeternus Malum]

So, I'm sitting my barbershop and I saw a local commercial saying Jon Stewart will go head-to-head with Seth Rollins in Newark tonight.

The way the commercial was produced, it wasn't like anything WWE has put out so I'm guessing The Daily Show paid for it?

EDIT: I also caught the WWE logo upside down so maybe they'll be on Miz's show?

What would you say about a guy with a flabby gut who needs a swat vest to win matches taking on the former UFC Heavyweight Champion?

 

[Toki767]

It's sad to say this, but Mizdow probably has no future outside of his feud with Miz.

Edit: Damn you SephZilla.

Yeah that's probably it. Hard to judge because I've been watching most of their matches I guess. A bit more variety in the dickishness by Miz would keep it fresh, maybe some at home stuff where Mizdow has to put salt & pepper on his food and Miz keeps saying "more more more more" until "nope too much, recook the entire 6 course meal". I'd laugh.

He stole the Best In The World moniker from Bryan Danielson's ROH Gimmick, as a way to get heel heat. Then they turned him face a few months later anyway.

I disagree completely, and don't think his matches are overrated at all, and neither is Punk. He's phenomenal.

If you have trouble believing that, then you should stop at "UFC champion" and disregard people's weights entirely, because Brock would absolutely demolish anyone on the entire roster in an actual fight, regardless of weights, so that criticism makes no sense.

 

[Aiii]

Cena vs Punk at MITB 2011 is without a doubt one of the top ten matches in WWE/F history. I don't see how anyone can think differently. The build to it, the match itself, the aftermath and to top it off, the crowd. 10/10 match.

 

[Dick Justice]

[Serpentine]

Punk was a good wrestler. Sloppy but v. charismatic and fun to watch. That wasn't his greatest strength though.

Yeah, i don't think so either

How do yall save gifs properly to iPad? When I save them they aren't animated and stuck on first frame....

 

[Heroman]

So while on the topic of punk, Will punk return to the wwe if so when?

 

[Aiii]

Switch to Android. I've been an iPad guy from the first second. Even imported one from the US, but Android has surpassed it and then some. Get a Xperia.

To answer your question, this can't be done. Gif's save as stills.

 

[Sweeney Tom]

He didn't have a future the second Cena beat him at the MITB cashin tbh

But man, that Mania pop if he turns on Miz there is gonna be sweet anyway

Going by this line of reasoning then how will Bryan be able to beat Brock without help? The difference is quite easy to notice but still people wanted the match.

 

[Aiii]

Never. Never ever.

 

[Serpentine]

So while on the topic of punk, Will punk return to the wwe if so when?

This Sunday at Wrestle Mania

I can see that....but some wrestling fans actually believe in it like every match he touch was gold. His last good match was with Bork at Summerslam.

Ofcourse. I love that match...everything about it was excellent. No denying that match was a classic.

A couple years after his unsuccessful UFC run.

When Kevin Dunn stop using crash dummy impact effects with the camerawork.

 

[sf2fanatic]

He'll reunite with Cabana on CWfH. What you think Serp?

You really expecting awesome matches out of axle, ryback or a handicap match? Dude was in Randy Orton don't give a shit mode after SS.

guy is one of,the most versatile guys on the roster. Straight edge society, summer of punk. Matching up with guys like rock and taker without dropping a beat. Dude deserves his accolades

 

[Toki767]

Remember when they gave match of the year that year to Rock vs Cena and Punk vs Brock wasn't even nominated because they wanted to nominate HHH vs Brock instead?

I am 100% more interested in Punk as a total package than any of those other guys, particularly AJ. Bryan comes close.

Not best, but a lot of fun to watch.

Whoa, that's DEFINITELY some hyperbole there. I can name ten far better matches from the Double Double E on that top ten list above a Pank vs Cener match. The build was something special, the match not so.

BREAKING NEWS: In a Facebook exclusive, Zack Ryder - WWE Universe has announced that he will enter the ‪#‎AndreTheGiantMemorialBattleRoyal‬ at WWE WrestleMania March 29 at Levi's Stadium.

[British Monsoon]

1,100 tickets sold for the PROGRESS May weekender in 40 minutes with no card announced, other than the fact that they'll be holding a two-day, 16 man tournament! These guys just keep going from strength to strength, can't wait for the shows. And hell, there's still Chapter 18 to get through at the end of the month.

Totally agree. If anything I think Punk's ring work is a bit underrated, in my opinion.

I can see me loving it in the background.

I totally disagree, I loved every single segment Ace was in. It was so godawful and fantastic. I am a fan of People Power.

when Ace wasn't dealing with the WWE title, he was great. anytime he was around the belt i was bored

 

[Arrowgigantic]

Sandow can rise above any gimmick, he's good and he will endure.

 

[Liquidsnake]

Is RAW going to be good tonight?

 

[Arrowgigantic]

Laurinaitis' run was worse than Mike Adamle's reign of terror. At least Mike was booted quickly.

It never is. So don't get your hopes up

 

[Plywood]

Friend, pls don't wish for AJ to legit die in-ring

She'll do the job and shake her hand afterwards, goddamit.

 

[Striker]

What would you say about a guy with a flabby gut who needs a swat vest to win matches taking on the former UFC Heavyweight Champion?

It would be more believable if they built up Reigns throughout 2014 better in singles competition. Even as meaningless the IC or US titles are, it would've done him more good had held one of those and had a decent feud in the midcard before his main event push.

 

[Serpentine]

He'll reunite with Cabana on CWfH. What you think Serp?

I think that this is a possibility most here are ruling out for some reason, but I think it's highly probable. CWfH is taking overrrrrr

Reigns isn't good in the ring at all, and belongs nowhere near the Wrestlemania main event.

 

[¡HarlequinPanic!]

I feel like punk/cena will always feel just a little short of making a true greats list because at the end of the day it had a stupidly booked dirty finish :\

 

[Verendus]

Reigns is better than Punk.

Balee in dat.
