WWE Royal Rumble 2013: CM Punk vs. The Rock For The WWE Championship (1/27/13)

[Rarely-Wrong Liggins]

That was was terrible, listen to the crowd they knew it.

They couldn't execute a fukking small package.

People just want to hate Cena is all. The Rock/Punk feud didn't have the heat or intensity the Cena feud had. It's funny because usually smarks thrive on real life animosity but used it as a negative when it involved Cena. But maybe that's because they were just projecting their feelings onto the Rock. Pretty sad when you think about it.

Dwayne Johnson has been turned into a mere mortal with this feud. Everytime he faced off against Cena the crowd was hyped for both men whether cheers or boos. The fact that the crowd turned against Dwayne shows he's been dragged down to PG level. No one knocked it out of the park promo wise but really there's no reason why Punk shouldn't have been the clear heel in this match because he did his part.

People are hating on Rock/Cena II but it's what the people want. People love to hate Cena and they want to see Dwayne kick that ass......again. It sells itself.

And people on here talking about hiatuses and don't spend your money just shut the fukk up. You're not going anywhere because you like bytching too much. You're battered wives. And most of you don't spend money anyway. How many streamers did we have in here? Cena's on top, that's the way it is. Love it or leave it or love leaving it but stop being a bytch about it. You want #fukkery , here it is. But be careful what you wish for.

The fact that this place pulls in so many views on these PPV's.

Kinda sad, you figure it out.

Because watching it with other people and not posting is less sad?. I've done both and it's the same shyt

It was a great match. Great ring psychology and though Rockys my boy, Punk kind of carried him/set the tone of the match. The Rock was obviously a little winded and rusty but he worked alright. Its a shame Punks reign ended but who other than the Rocky should have won it? Regardless, Road to Wrestlemania will surely have all kinds of fukkery

 

[Rarely-Wrong Liggins]

I really hope it wasn't The Shield that did this. Let it be Cena or Taker or Bo Jackson or whatever the fukk is name is. Hell, it could be Zeke But not The Shield. Restart their momentum and let them be renegades, not lackeys. And please don't put Maddox with them.

I don't even know how you pay attention to the show when posting online honestly.

At least watching with friends you can watch the show and socialize, instead of typing/reading/watching. How can you truly watch a show like that?

I think like a lot of folks have said before, some of yall aint even watching it for the show, you're watching it to keep up with the TSC banter. Or the TSC banter keeps some going.

They were never meant to be anything but lackeys, it's sad but true.

They had a classic TLC match too, and really they were just pawns in the Punk/Ryback dance of protection.

fukking sad how they wasted a possibly great thing

Had my stream pinned to my screen where my notification would be.

At the end of the show got to see I have like 30 notifications.

 

[LastEmperor2k2]

Cute pics, but what is there to be mad about?

Just an observation my friend.

How can one truly watch and enjoy a show when they're not even paying full attention to it? On top of that on a small computer screen or browser window. I could see for a Raw or Smackdown, but a big PPV you gotta eliminate the distractions.

Eh, but that's just me.

People just want to hate Cena is all. The Rock/Punk feud didn't have the heat or intensity the Cena feud had.

I actually found the Rumble match enjoyable, but I 100% agree with this.

This never felt like a feud. It felt like it does in boxing when a mandatory match gets in the way of the fight you really want to see.

Punk: I'm the best and you can't beat me!
Rock: You're great, but I'm going to beat you.

Sums up "build."

Thought the Cena/Rock exchanges were much more entertaining and was I a lot more invested in their finish.

Yeah, most of the times, TSC banter is what makes this shyt watchable. But it ain't hard to watch and post breh, it doesn't take a lot of time either

Might have had a good point here.

I think that's another reason why this match fell way short to me, with Cena winning the RR the match was a foregone conclusion at that point.

I wasn't invested in who won at all because I didn't care and I already knew.

I thought Ziggler was going to win the Rumble honestly but I'm glad he didn't. He needs to hone his mic skills a bit. I don't know if he can sell the impact of winning such a big match. His MITB run is shaping up to be Daniel Bryan bad. His bodyguard is outshining both him and his girlfriend. Ziggler needs to be himself and reveal that him and Big E smut out AJ on some sleaze shyt. He needs to stop jobbing too.

It would have been nice if Bryan won and Cena congratulated him on RAW but said a backhanded compliment. Punk and Rock could continue their feud with Bryan mixed in for the WWE title. An increasingly jealous Cena would weasel is way in and the slow turn would start. He'd still be cutting the goofy corny promos to keep up appearances but talk slick about Bryan. At WM Bryan wins the title after #fukkery like Cena winning then it's overturned for whatever reason and Cena just snaps. I think Bryan is ready to go as a top face. They FUBAR'd Sheamus, he needs a good feud and change of attitude desperately. Barrett or Cesaro could give the spark he needs while giving them extra cred too. I'm rambling but yeah, some of this shyt needs to happen.

I never said it took time, just it takes your attention away from the matches.

Same with sports, I used to post sometimes during football games, found it got annoying real quick because I`d feel like i`m missing out on the game.
I just always tend to question someones opinion of a show that they watched while posting.

I can definitely see how TSC banter can make these shows more entertaining, but when I watch a show I actually plan on watching the show.

To each his own though, whatever keeps you tuned in, Vin Man don't mind.
