There’s
a wonderful feeling in WWE right
now.
For
more than a month now, their storylines have been surprisingly fresh. For some
insane reason, the top brass is listening to the voice of the smart fans –
pushing the people they want to get pushed and pitting them with the wrestlers
THEY want to push.
The
return of CM Punk was expected and
yet the WWE managed to put a zing into it. Barely two weeks from his
“departure”, Punk showed up with the WWE belt after John Cena won the WWE belt from Rey Mysterio.
Confusing?
Well
CM Punk stated that if he wins the WWE title from John Cena, he will leave and
he’s taking the title with him. At Money
in the Bank, that threat happened. So in the following WWE Raw, then-WWE Chief Operating Officer Vince McMahon
made a tournament for the new WWE Champion. The winner of the tourney turned
out to be Rey Mysterio but new WWE COO Triple
H stepped in and by virtue of fairness, decided to have Mysterio face
former WWE champ Cena for that title.
Word.
Anyway,
the “zing” that I am talking about happens to be Punk’s entrance theme upon his
return. When Cena won the belt, a strange noise blurted. No one knew what to
think of it. It was either a new wrestler from TNA will about to make a statement... or a new WWE wrestler would
be re-launched.
When
CM Punk entered the arena, it shocked people.
When
he went inside the ring, and when Cena showed off his belt, and then Punk
showed his belt, the crowd erupted.
The
song is called Cult of Personality by
Living Colour. Strangely enough, that was the song CM Punk used during his Ring of Honor days. For those that
don’t know Ring of Honor, it is basically the ECW of this generation. The
promotion is filled with people that can wrestle and is basically a launching
pad for future top grapplers. It is also a place where the guys on the top are
the guys that should be on the top. Most of their draws are in TNA now but
there are a few that saw action in the WWE. The likes of Punk, Sheamus, Samoa Joe, AJ Styles, Abyss,
Christopher Daniels, Chris Sabin, Colt Cabana, Alex Shelley, Brian Kendrick, Paul
London, and Daniel Bryan played a huge part in the promotion. At one point
of their careers, Eddie Guerrero and
Matt Hardy wrestle for the
promotion.
And
that thought hit me...
Is the
McMahon family considering on purchasing Ring of Honor?
Punk
wouldn’t have said ROH and Colt Cabana in one of his promos. And then Punk
wouldn’t have said Cabana’s name again during his contract signing with Mr.
McMahon.
And
then he came to the ring with that semi-trucker song?
Maybe
I’m thinking way beyond my vantage point but if that’s the case, then I would
stop guessing on what ifs because the last I want to happen right now is to get
spoiled.
Like I
said, there’s a wonderful feeling in the WWE right now.
Game
over.
