CM Punk Wins WWE Title! Leaves WWE With The Belt! Cena Fired!

CM Punk defeated John Cena last night to win the WWE championship on his last night with the company.  After winning Vince tried to have Alberto Del Rio cash in his MIB title match but Del Rio was instantly stopped by Punk.  Afterwards Rio jumped the guard rail and escaped into the city of his hometown, Chicago, where he was seen partying (soberly of course) all night with the belt and the citizens of Chicago.
  I dont know what this means for John Cena and the future of the WWE title or Punk for that matter.  I can not wait to watch Raw tonight and find out!

Christian Wins Second World Title, Destroyed By Orton Post Match

After spitting in the face of Randy Orton during their match, a fuming Orton kicked the holy bejeezus out of Christian's groin and thus was disqualified from the match.  Usually the title can't change hands that way but as you readers recall, Christian had a special contract written up so that if Orton was disqualified he would lose the title.  After the match Orton absolutely obliterated Christian.

Without Punk, What's Next For The Nexus?

As we all know, Nexus Leader, CM Punk is close to finishing his tenure with the WWE and will most likely leave the company in two weeks.  While that is another story altogether, this post focuses on the rest of the Nexus members.  When their fearless leader leaves what will become of the up and coming superstars of the Nexus?  While each of the members have shown strengths in the squared circle on their own, none of them have made a huge impact on the WWE universe yet.  I sincerely hope that Punk's underlings aren't left out to dry when Punk leaves the WWE.

CM Punk: Possibly The Best Of This Generation...

Now, let me just state that I have always been a fan of CM Punk and his work inside and outside of the ring.  His matches are always exciting and his promo's are close to untouchable by other superstars.  In light of the recent rant he went on on the most recent Raw, I have developed a new sense of respect for Punk.  While we don't know a whole lot of what went on behind the scenes during this rant, we do know that no one other than Punk knew what was going to be said and even though his method of conveying his issues are controversial, Punk had a lot of points that I happen to agree with.  In my opinion, CM Punk is one of the top ring performers today on both the Smackdown and Raw rosters.  I love every match that he puts on and his promos are always extremely entertaining.  With his most recent promo, Punk brought us back to the days of the "attitude" era and gave us a sense of realism when there has been close to no realism as of late.  I have always felt that Punk was one of the most underrated superstars in the WWE and I agree that his talents have not been properly recognized.  CM Punk deserves to be in one of the main events at next year's wrestlemania, but instead The Rock will headline next year's 'Mania and probably will not wrestle a single match before that.  Regardless of the outcome of the next few weeks, I applaud Punk for taking a chance and voicing his opinion and I also believe that  this will do more good than bad in the future of Punk's career.
