    Wrestlezone have an article up saying its a work and that Jericho has been pushing for a Mania match against Punk. They are saying that the tweet is him trying to build their heat up as "real" so more people buy into the match.

    I'd love Jericho vs Punk though. Those two could steal the show on the mic and in the ring.

    I'd rather the plan wwe have at the moment HHH vs Punk, it'd be a much bigger match for Punk too.

    Yea that would be a great match and the promos leading up to it would be brilliant

    Its from lordsofpain so hopefully its not true.

    It's said that while WWE fully recognizes how hot CM Punk is right now and realizes his long-term potential, the real focus for the payoff of RAW's top storyline will be putting Triple H over.

    When HHH was announced as the "COO" a few weeks ago I was hoping he would just appear on Raw for a week or 2, set everything thing straight and then be off again.

    I don't want him returning as a full time on screen presence to be honest. You can see in the last few weeks that hes been on the show for over half an hour each time.

    Also at least when Vince was the chairman on screen he would get into a feud with someone but eventually lose the match that would come from the feud but with HHH I can see him doing the same but then actually winning the few matches he'll take part in.

    Hopefully i'm wrong but it wouldnt surprise me if we're going to see a lot of HHH on WWE TV in the future.

    HHH is the one guy on the roster WWE don't need to put time into getting over. He can make the average fan cheer him or boo him in the space of 30 seconds.

    Seriously, there is some serious **** on the internet: its the same as transfer stories in tabloids, unless a credible source is mentioned, by name, ignore it.

    Yeah I think I interpreted it wrong anyway.

    I thought it was saying to get him over as the new boss which would mean him beating people in matches when he has them like he has been for the past decade and never losing.

    As DM mentioned -HHH doesnt need help getting himself over, whether its as the new boss or not! His promos alone can tunr a crowd one way or the other! I'm just hoping for "mcmahon - Helmsley era / 2 man power trip" Ultra Heel HHH as the boss! Feud with punk (alá austin/mcmahon) He doesnt need help with that - and it would be awesome for the promos alone!

    I really hope HHH f***s off soon. I can't stand listening to him belittle others in his promos. He's taking the heat out of Punk vs Cena. If he wants to help he can help backstage, not cutting 2-3 promos a night; a guy who's not getting in the ring.

    Also, please don't get in the ring and job people out.

    I guess one of my bigger qualms is that he's the same character heel or face, but he's the only heel that wins matches clean.

    He's not the wrestler HHH so honestly he should have a new theme as well. Or at least a new edit or something. Or just use KoK.

    That's extremely accurate! It looks great - and would be a great way to hype up the S'Slam match; it's very raw, real, credible, serious. As opposed to the standard slick promo package with the lame new song of the month

    I'd much rather HHH-Punk. I know he runs the risk of HHH trying to hog the headlines, but it would be better in the ring and a bigger match for Punk. But I've never really seen Jericho as anything more than somebody just below the main event (or WHC on Smackdown).

    They have absolutly killed this storyline dead. It started out great, if a little rushed. Punk should have gotten a longer build up to his title win and leaving but that's not the problem here. The problem is he "left" for a grand total of a week. That just made the previous month meaningless. The whole idea was what would happen if their was no champion. That was undone the very next night and completly forgotten about a week later when Punk came back.

    They squeezed several months of potentially really good storyline into less than two months for no reason. Crap like this is why I dont bother to get invested in any WWE storylines.

    thankfully the summer is almost over, it was 1-2 months earlier, it'd be the Summer of HHH.

    It's so sad to hear critics retrofit this Punk angle as it's now a "Vince McMahon/HHH angle". It was just gravy MITB and before. Sigh!

    Punk hasn't lost any momentum since MITB, he's as $hit hot now as he was leading into MITB, he's still the highlight of Raw every week and the guy that we are all waiting to see on the show, and everyone is talking about him and Nash now with the much less talked about Del Rio becoming WWE champion taking a back-seat.

    People are pi$$ed off that Punk hasn't had a real run with the WWE belt, understandable so, but him not being the champ hasn't detracted from him being by far the hottest commodity in WWE right now.

    I'm thinking that booking Nash into Punks world is just an obstacle to buy a couple more months as a means to delay the inevitable Punk/HHH match, will this feud be dragged out until WrestleMania though? Seems too far away to me.

    But if we do go down that route, then I would love to see Shawn Michaels return as his 90's sexy-boy heel character and have a feud with Punk, maybe the blow-off being at the 2012 Royal Rumble.

    I was thinking along the same lines, didnt Nash say he got a text from his best friend asking him to attack Punk? That's always been Shawn Michaels, not Triple H.

    Former WWE Champion CM Punk recently appeared on Mark Madden's radio show in Pittsburgh. Madden asked Punk if he was headed for a feud with Triple H and if he was, could he escape that feud "undamaged."

    "That's a fantastic question," Punk said. "And I'm not so sure that's where we're headed. I guess that's the $64,000 question. Everybody immediately assumes based on past experiences and past TV shows that this is what's going to happen. 'Punk's going to get buried.' That's one of those things, Mark, I hate to give you this answer but you have to wait and see. Is there a way I can escape that undamaged? Absolutely. Unless we're doing things we were doing 10 years ago and we don't really care about the future of the business. Because let's be honest, the future of the business is in jeopardy right now. If we want to make the same mistakes, then I'm obviously speaking out against it. But if we do make those same mistakes, I don't know if there's going to be a business in 30 years."

    HBK would look ridiculous doing the nowadays. I hope they come up with a Clique type group dominating Raw with Punk feuding against them. It could be HHH, Nash and 2 younger guys (Dolph and Swagger for example).

    Although I'm not sure HHH is going to end up siding with Nash. But the above would make for decent TV with the stuff Punk could say whilst feuding against 2 of the biggest egos in wrestling.

    Sick of the John Cena Title runs really everything else bar Punk has become a warm up act in wwe.

    So is Punk Heel or Face ?? or is it the way you judge the whole storyline yourself

    A fan submission to Dorkly, a comedy website usually about video games but also covering various other geeky things;
    Last month I attended the WWE “Money In The Bank” pay-per-view. They were selling a limited edition CM Punk shirt, but it sold out before I could get one. They were going for $500 on Ebay afterwards. I couldn’t find it for a cheaper price anywhere, so I got a tattoo of the front of the shirt on my arm instead. I’ve been spamming CM Punk’s twitter account with pictures of it for three weeks, but he has not acknowledged me.

    Oh yeah, wonder where he got his source? They are filming an episode of Raw during the UK/Ireland trip, so I don't see any reason why Punk would miss the tour.

    He's advertised to appear on the Dublin page so far anyway.

    I ordered the best in the world shirt about 6 weeks ago, now fair enough they were out of stock, but the order left WWE on the 25th of august, and I'm still waiting. Is this normal?

    In other news, buying my tix to the live show tonight, said fk it, may aswell go to one.
