So I was thinking and after last night I think it's a shame because Punk/Cena could have been the fued that defined this era much like Bret/Michaels,Hogan/Savage and Austin/Rock did their eras.WWE really missed the boat.

Punk is the perfect foil for Cena. After his heel turn I've been waiting for this feud. Earlier this year it ended abruptly so hopefully this is played out the right way.

I hope not anytime soon.

I hope not anytime soon.

Some are saying he won't make it out of FCW

 

[Benstamania]

I bet when he does he'll be able to cut a better promo than John Morrison.

 

[bullets]

Andy can't even 'cut the mustard' lol .... well , things change. Miz was able to come a long way from where he started.

 

[Benstamania]

I'm pulling for Andy.. I hope he lives his dream and becomes at least a decent wrestler. I'm just glad the uber *****e he was up against was sent home.

I seriously hope I never see him in a WWE ring. I can not stand that tool.

 

[TheIncredibleSk]

Luke should have easily won. Guy is future WWE Champion material. Andy is HORRRIBLE. I meant Andy lol

 

[Wheels]

I just can't stand when WWE brings guys up to the main roster who aren't ready yet.

 

[Benstamania]

I wanted to punch Luke in the face. He didn't scream "WWE Champion" to me, he screamed "Super *****e Tool".

I fully agree with this. Andy should be training for a very long time.

Great heel heat magnet.

That's what would of worked in his favor though. He would of gotten major heel heat .

I think Andy has potential, but throwing guys out there before they're ready is bad business. You want to bring someone up? Seth Rollins is ready right now.

 

[Project862006]

Great heel heat magnet.

maybe but he was just Alex Reilly lite

 

[TheIncredibleSk]

Riley is gonna be huge. He is already over as a face. Give him year and a belt and then turn him heel. Oh my you got your next Randy Orton.

Here's a link to a news story from a few months back suggesting that TNA does beat Raw and Smackdown in the ratings in the UK...

Thats because WWE is on subscription channels and TNA is on free to air channels avalible to anyone.

Also John Cena has just never been that well liked in the UK. He gets booed at almost every tour over here for years so the fact his the face of the WWE doesn't really help them over here.

 

[Slushy]

Shame HBK had to retire. Punk Vs. Michaels would've been amazing!

Riley is gonna be huge.

Agreed. The fact he beat The Miz speaks volume. As long as he doesn't pull a Ryan Dunn, his career should be fine.

im a bit surprised - noone seems to knwo TNA over here but everyone knows WWE, but i guess the fact TNA is on challenge and WWE is sky sports only could be an potential explanation - i bet that alot of people stream wwe over here (I know i did while at uni where i didnt have sky) which would also affect the ratings - they should do what they did when i was young and have a recap show on channel 4 on a sat or sun morning (heat, or superstars or whatever the equivalent is these days)

 

[marvelman2006]

whether punks promo was real or not it still was awesome. I tend to think it was scripted because do you really think it would have gone on 6 minutes without getting the mic turned off if it wasnt real?

Yeah I remember WWE Heat on Channel 4. They should put Superstars or a recap show on Channel 4 or Channel 5 as it would gain them more fans as its would get larger exposure but I don't think they can.

I think they signed an exclusive contract with SKY in the UK. So Sky shows all the WWE shows which looks good on paper as I'm sure Sky paid them alot of money for the right but the downside is there are still alot of people who don't subscribe to Sky so won't watch the WWE which means it won't get the new fans or exposure it could get with shows on different networks.

Of course it was not real. It probably was not totally scripted, but he probably had points to talk about and was up to him how it came out.

Saying what he did, if real he would be never heard from again in the WWE, no title shot, no coming on Raw for the next 3 weeks, nothing.

No way he would have said what he did if it was real and even talk about having a title shot because he would know after that promo he would be done.

 

[X Knight]

I agree that Luke guy was a total ******. Even though he did have more of a "star" look ( as a sleazy, arrogant heel ), I am glad Andy won instead.

And it's kind of ironic how Riley feels like the winner of his season's NXT, whereas the real winner, Low Ki ( or Kaval or whatever he's called ), is gone from WWE.

speaking of NXT..........is that show even on?
