Punk could beat a 5 year old girl to death in the middle of the ring and still get cheered by a segment of the crowd. What's the point of even worrying about that, especially against someone as over as the Undertaker?
WWE lets ANOTHER golden angle slip through their fingers.....

I'm all for fukkery but damn, give us at least one meaningful storyline.
They could have made triumph out of tragedy but they went the cheapest route possible. It seems like if Punk and Cena aren't involved with each other they are just generic foils and saviors in other ultimately meaningless feuds.
I'm not a big fan of Punk but you got a guy who can tell a story on both the mic and in the ring and you got him stealing urns? The whole thing should have been based on respect.
Punk and Heyman should have interrupted the tribute, but in protest. The basis would be that a legend like William Moody deserves more than a cheap moment of silence and a pose by the man who robbed him of a proper send off. Punk would then put over Bearer and how he was a critical and irreplaceable component in the legend of the Undertaker and the Streak but Taker was so selfish that he could never hang it up after he knew he was done and allow Bearer to retire the character he nursed when Taker was nothing more than a mute, green zombie.
He would explain how last WM was the perfect moment to give Bearer the proper send off and closure. HHH had set up the hook; the end of an era. HBK brought the drama as having to choose between a man he respected and his best friend. All Taker had to do was show up and collect a check, beat HHH, get a nice clean 20-0 at WM and retire. Paul would bring out the urn, Taker would pose, everyone would get a nice pop, fat legends contract and MOVE ON.
Taker's selfishness and greed killed that perfect moment. And with Bearer's death so too goes his proper send off. Before, Punk was looking to add a feather to his hat by ending the Streak. Now it's more than that. The Streak has to die because that kills the Undertaker. The Undertaker must pass on with William Moody...anything else cheapens the contributions of Bearer and sullies Taker's legacy. Punk holds up the urn, salutes William Moody and you're off to the races.
But hey, we can always use the urn as a cheap weapon instead. :belip:
So it was never the urn that gave Taker his powers... but "The Streak" gives him his meaning of exitance? To break the streak is to break Taker's life that's why Taker is always at the top of his game at Mania cause his life is on the line... HE's FIGHTING FOR HIS LIFE! Punk beating Taker at Wrestlemania would be the "death" of the Undertaker...
Why didn't they use this to set up the feud?
They could still go with this. There's still hope.

SWEEEEEEEEEETNESS!
This... this is really good! Compelling argument and it makes Taker flawed and vulnerable and gives Punk a chance to win. These are also reasons on why it could never happen this way

Breh, their target audience would sit there and be all "huh", "wha", "who?", "wheh?".
Your angle is for smarks. The current World Wrestlng Federation is for children and retards.
If they used your, and other smarky angles, they'd get my $$$. But since the product is shyt that will lower IQ points, all I do is stream, and just keep it in the background while I do other shyt.
Props for caring, doe, nikka. You care about wrestling, which means that you hate cena. You got my respect.

Lol....you're delusional. When has wrestling ever been about high mindedness, and appealing to high IQ brains? Its freakin pro wrestling for fcks sake. Its by nature low brow, and has always appealed to the lowest common denominator. Get over yourself.
Yep.
It's why this Jack Swagger shyt is flopping.
At first it was getting some decent heat, but the more they go in depth about it the more the audience tunes out hence the "Boring" chants last night.
Geopolitical wrestling angles don't really take off because the crowd isn't there to hear about immigration reform. They don't hate the character they just don't care.
So why did Muhammad Hassan get monster heat until he went away?
It wasn't in-depth, it was simple.
"This guy is an Islamic extremist, hate him".
It didn't go into the details of the conflict, it was fresh off the war on terror and everyone was aware of the issue. Also, it's the time tested USA USA thing, that shyt never fails.

Why a 5 year old? Why not a new born or clubbin a seal to death?
He wasn't an Islamic extremist, though. He was an Arab-American who was constantly being unfairly stereotyped by a society that refused to examine its own prejudices and hypocrisies.

Cause a 5 year old would be fully aware that she was getting her ass kicked.

Yeah and he was doing mock executions in the ring that resembled the Nick Berg video.
Please, he was an Islamic Extremist

That alternative would have been alot better than what we are getting now.
Punk cutting a face-ish promo wouldn't matter since he already has a piece of the crowd (smarks) rooting for him. He can do something he feels is "right" but still go about being a dikk in his delivery to avoid a 50/50 split.
Would also set up nicely for the rumored Heyman breakup/Brock Lesnar feud that is suppose to take place by Summer.
We'll never get something that deep though, unfortunately.
