h ey Scott, I know it sucks that punk is gone for awhile and we all miss out as fans, but if the most recent up to the minute reports are true that he walked away because hhh wasn't good enough for his mania30 match, and now hhh is legit pissed while Vince doesn't really care and is willing to work with punk again anytime 1)how beautiful of a slap in the face to hhh is that, punk just completely no sold that dudes whole career and 2) how great would it be if hhh tries to bury him on raw and the crowd shits on him again 3) does this make punk the iwc GOAT Thanks man, you're the best! |
There is a certain hilarity to Punk having his dream match with Austin denied and thus leaving over having to face HHH instead. Although like Meltzer was talking about this morning, Punk is a bit of a crazed perfectionist, and he's been frustrated in the past by things not going exactly the way he wants them, so this could be something playing into that.
Also, while the idea of blowing off the Authority story with Punk as Vince's guy and HHH as HHH's guy made a certain amount of sense months ago, the angle has been so watered down by HHH's constant waffling and stalled storyline progression that it's not like fans are chomping at the bit to see HHH get his comeuppance at this point. He's not the arrogant and undeserving corporate head at this point, he's just the guy in charge now. Vince McMahon returning to unseat him is just swapping one authority figure for another. So I can see where it wouldn't be a big deal to be gifted with a match against him.
