Can't believe what I just witnessed tonight. It was like WWE turned 180°, really.

WAY.TOO.AWESOME.

 

[omimasum]

that was some fucking rambo shit mang

 

[sumo390]

DVD, BLU RAY, HDDVD I WANT IT ALL

 

[cartoon_soldier]

Got to give credit to both CM Punk and John Cena for putting on a show for us.

Cena has always been a good worker, he is just booked stale by WWE.

But yes, Cena deserves credit too

 

[Spider from Mars]

I want to believe so hard, but the cynic in me is remembering this is WWE.

 

[Jstox]

Oh, and that crowd - great stuff guys! It's electric at my place right now. Chills are running up and down my spine. This is great!

 

[Pristine_Condition]

We are/were in shock that WWE had the balls to do something so drastic.

I'm in shock John Cena worked a >1hr. match and it didn't completely blow.

Razorskin is on thin ice.

How could you, turning on our own flesh and blood!

 

[TheBear]

I totally forgot about Cena getting fired! Holy shit this is spectacular!

WHAT A MANEUVER!!

 

[NubCakes09]

Punk is walking out of the arena with the WWE Championship.

[Jeff Albertson]

For a main event match, that was really underwhelming.

Fucks sake man drop it it's just pathetic.

I actually can't believe how good that was and both Cena and randy delivered the goods big time, respect.

 

[Bowser]

For a main event match, that was really underwhelming.

lmao, your precious Cena and Orton both lost. Sorry buddy, but the crowd you just saw begs to differ.

 

[Razorskin]

Technically, Cena hasn't been fired yet.


I'm still alive for 24 hours!

 

[ElRenoRaven]

I'll be fucking damned. I'm in shock right now. The first real truly amazing WWE PPV in years. That ending was amazing too.

The first time I haven't been able to predict a PPV from start to finish.

 

[Net_Wrecker]

I hope people watch Raw and the ratings improve tomorrow.

People better start ponying up for Pay Per Views too. The IWC has no excuse now.

:lol

At $55 a pop, not until I get 4 or 5 months straight of PPV's THAT good will I buy them in succession. The WWE.com streams should be $20. I would buy all of em if they were that good.

 

[Dr. Kitty Muffins]

I wouldnt doubt that Punk's contract gave him creative control. I can't otherwise explain how the WWE played to the IWC.

 

[bathala]

PPV delivered

 

[Keyser Soze]

 

[MetalFearSolid]

I think Punk will lose it tomorrow on RAW..

 

[spindashing]

FUCKING LOL

That just sounds hilarious.

You know CM Punk isn't really taking the belt anywhere, right?

He's probably walking to the back right now to drop it off with the prop guys.

 

[Leona Lewis]

This is the first WWE PPV I've watched since...2001 or thereabouts. I didn't really get much context for what was going on, but the excitement in this thread was pretty spectacular

Is it just me or was the arena tonight really small? I'm not sure if WWE's downsized in the past few years, but I felt like I was watching WWE Velocity or something at points...

 

[DMczaf]

He looks like a Bushwack brother.

 

[British Monsoon]

I can't decide who Randy looks more like here, Hacksaw Jim Duggan, or Bushwhacker Luke?

 

[Ydahs]

Superb main event. We haven't see a match worked like that in years.

The pace, the atmosphere, the story. Worthy of Wrestlemania.


Guess what guys? This means Punk has re-signed!

 

[Deleted member 8095]

That was the best PPV in a long long time. The Cena/Punk match was fantastic and I finally saw what the Cena fans were talking about. He was just as good if not better than Punk in that match. The GTS reversal to STF was GREAT! The match totally lived up to expectations and to be honest, went a little above them!

 

[Dork Knight]

The WWE seriously deserves credit for not playing it safe tonight. I think they realize they need to do something different. And, holy shit, is this different!

 

[BoboBrazil]

what the fuck are you talking about, shaggy 2 dope already signed him to defend the belt against necro butcher at gathering of the juggalos bro

 

[Keyser Soze]

You and me, Keyser. We kept the faith and we were handsomely, handsomely rewarded, my friend.

Everyone wins!!

...although I cannot sleep right now :/

 

[Trakdown]

Wow....guess I was wrong, thankfully. Good on the WWE to keep this rolling, definitely tuning in tomorrow night to see where it heads.

 

[Plywood]

If only he really did and then fired him.

Punk has sold really well the fact that he hasn't resigned a contract. While Punk winning was not that unexpected, him actually leaving with the belt was unexpected.

And the fact that the ending wasn't a screwjob.

 

[Mush]

Michael Cole noted that the bell never rang.

Well, there's your storyline.

 

[sumo390]

Standing ovation for all those involved, Punk+Vince+Cena. That was wonderful.

[tralfazz]

So glad I spent the cash! PPV was awesome! I must have that new Punk shirt! Is it possible that we might be headed back to weekly threads?! I don't know what anarchy Is but I like it!

I'd love to see him in the old Pat Patterson toadie roll...

Don't break the illusion bro.

 

[omimasum]

for a minute there i thought the rock was gonna come out then

 

[MetalFearSolid]

so tomorrow might be like what would have happened if Bret Hart didn't get screwed 97 Survivor Series..

 

[Net_Wrecker]

Well, there's your storyline.

I thought Cole said the bell never rang for DEL RIO'S cash in, not the end of the Title match.

 

[thuway]

^ MY DANCE RIGHT NOW

SWAG THANK YOU BASED PUNK

Can you give me the other gif that has the complete dance was based on? And what the hell is the meme behind this ??

 

[remnant]

Re-watching this match. There is no way you can't give credit to Cena for a lot of moments in this match. The G2sleep into the STFU blew the building up

 

[Dr. Kitty Muffins]

I'll leave it to the WWE to squash anything great.

I just can't see them not fucking this up like always.

 

[superpickleman]

Superb main event. We haven't see a match worked like that in years.

The pace, the atmosphere, the story. Worthy of Wrestlemania.

The new shirt is what gave that away for me.
