Anderson Silva looks like a skinny fat dude too, next thing you know nikkas here gonna say that it wouldn't be possible for him to enter a Gold's Gym and put the beats on the first dude benching 500+ he sees
Just sayin', the "unbelievable factor" is a reach. Show should be going over everyone all the time and never lose then, by that logic. Khali should be 4749273927392 time world heavy weight champion and so should every monster big man type Vince has pushed in the past.![]()
CALM DOWN. They actually got a new guy over so they have to protect him, Sheamus, Ziggler and Del Rio been getting Rob Conway pops. You think it matters about building for The Rock?
Rock will draw regardless, you gotta focus on people who are on every show. If you get these people over you don't have to rely on guys like Brock and Rock with their limited dates.
I agree with you that the Internet cares too much at times about making everyone look strong. This is a case where they should go with the guy they want to push 100%.
The problem is that having Punk beat Ryback kills a guy who had the potential to draw money. He's not a sure thing, but he has a decent shot at drawing money in this business. CM Punk? His claim to fame in one year as top guy/co-top guy is doing a 15k buy increase on a B level ppv. Sacrificing Ryback for the sake of building a proven non-draw is bad business.
Punk fans will want him to beat Rock next and swear he just needs more victories or years with the belt for anyone to spend a dime to watch him or tune to Raw.
The only way I can see this match ending is with Punk doing some type of fukkery to get himself DQ. Its a HIAC match but I'm sure that will only add to the fukkery of the DQ.
It's not about The Rock, its about CM Punk's reign. If you beat him now, then why in the fukk have we wasted time on the whole 336 days and counting gimmick, as well as all the promotion spent on building to Rock/Punk in January. Rock's been set up to destroy that since July, why destroy that for a six-month flash in the pan?
Like I said, Punk's absolutely losing to Rock, the whole point of why I'm so obstinate about this is because Punk's the most over heel in the company and there's a much bigger match than this to worry about with Rock taking on a white hot Punk.
I'll admit this with Ryback: I wouldn't want to beat him either. I understand that, it's only 6 months into the streak and he really hasn't beaten anyone of note yet. But I'm just picking the most important of the options and going with it, and right now building Punk for Rock is more important. As long as you do it in a way that allows for Ryback to retain his monster credibility, then you don't have Ryback lose for a long, long time (certainly not before getting the belt if he's proven himself worthy) and he beats Punk in dominant fashion in a post-WrestleMania rematch, I believe you'll get something special out of Ryback.
It's never just one or the other. You gotta be able to balance the two and attempt to get the best of both worlds here. Both are too important.

AN ORTON TYPE? How about ORTON![]()
This is another important point. We all know wrestling is predetermined now, but remember how into it you were as a kid when you didn't know? What a magical time that was. I was raised on Goldberg and the NWO, I didn't know it was fake until somebody told me.
There are tons of kids watching WWE right now thinking it"s real and won't find out that it's fake for a few years, unless they do something completely unbelievable like have Punk win here.
