i watched the UHD replay of RAW last night.
i have to say that it took how long? for CM Punk to be over big with the crowd and to be IMO the main guy in WWe. he is the fan-loved HEEL character.
some guys it comes in the wink of an eye,others need to find that character,that persona, Austin did it when he left WCW-pit stopped in ECW-became the ringmaster in WWE before doing the SCSA thing. the Rock was the same way as the Rocky Miavia character was just stale-the whole Nation of Domination was ok...until he moved onto the next step-The Most Electrifying Man in Sports Entertainment. Taz of ECW days was sorta the same when he was this crazy "jungle animal" character before becoming the Human Suplex Machine. i feel the same with Foley-his final step was the Hell in the Cell when he jumpedleaps and bounds to being THe Guy
i see just from the moment Punk walked out to confront Nash that he realized the way his character should finally be used/portayed.
Plus with Punk,Austin,Rock,Taz and many others its like it all finally comes together like an open hand forming into a closed fist all the aspects of their character come together at once, good/great matches,good interesting storylines,ability on the Mic (very important) just Melds and creates a Buzz and a guy you cant miss week to week.i loved Punk from the Indie days so you sorta see them rise to the pinnacle :nanner:
 
Did anyone else catch it when Matt Striker interviewed Mark Henry this past week on Smackdown after he asked the question to him he was visibly shaking the mic as Mark talked like he was trembling and scared he was going to be the next one to get attacked
 
Just some things that went through my mind while watching:

-I think that "marella" is Italian for 'mid-carder'.

-Damn you Austin, for starting that "What?!" shit!!! Oh, I fucking hate it!!!!
-I love how R-Truth and Miz played off of their hatred for the crowd.

They threw Cena's shirt back to him!!! AaaHahahahaaa!!! Oh, Canada, I love it!

-So, John Laurinaitis is trying to take the control of the WWE right from under HHH. Either that or he's working under Stephanie's orders.

-At the very end, someone in the crowd held up his thumb and bellowed "Ho!!!!!!", like Hacksaw Jim Duggan. I just about fell over laughing.

John Laurinaitis is Road Warrior Animal's younger brother and was formerly known as Johnny Ace when he wrestled. His nephew James is a linebacker for the St. Louis Rams.
 
i really like watching Evan Bourne, hes exciting to watch. so sad he has been a sideshow since he came back from his first injury. just glad hes getting an opportunity to hold a championship belt
 
the person that threw back john cenas shirt, it the reason i am proud to be canadian

this person will soon be an true canadian legend
 
Doctor...Doctor, my ears really hurt.
Why, that's because you have Booker T's voice getting in there.

I think my toilet is possessed. It's flushing, but it sounds as if it's forming human words.
Oh, wait...no. It's just Booker T doing commentary.

That horse's time has come. Time to put 'er down and out of 'er misery. Get my rifle, boy.
Wait, Farmer Brown. That's just Booker T doing commentary.
Oh.....Get my rifle, boy.

It's good to see the Aflac duck still getting work. Oh, wait. That's Book- ...yeah.
 
I don't get the hate for Booker's commentary! The dude cracks me up.

Hes awful but hes funny. I loved him tagging w/ Steiner in TNa cause neither of their promos made a lick of sense!

Regardless, comm on wrestling is shitty right now. When tazz is the best one, i think wrestling comm is in a sad state...
 
, i think wrestling comm is in a sad state...

that's why i throw in old WrestleMania's, just so i can listen to Gorilla Monsoon and Jesse Ventura actually call a match. now they were a great broadcast team! they would actually name holds, maneuvers, counters, Cole can't shut up about himself or his man love for The Wiz (i call him The Wiz cause that's the time i take to go to the bathroom:D)
