What WWE Really Thinks About CM Punk..

The reality of the situation is that CM Punk is not as big as John Cena nor is he as big as Chris Jericho.

Cena is WWE. He doesn't need the belt to be relevant or to be the main event of every RAW. I can't stand this but it's the reality of the situation.

I like Punk as much as the next guy but you'd be a fool to think Jericho isn't a bigger name than Punk.

What was wrong about it is that they've basically admitted this and it was evident on RAW. Even if it's not reality, they should have had the championship match as the Main Event.

Show us that the belt is relevant. Show us that your champion is the most important guy on the roster.

Instead they just copped out and basically said "yeah Jericho's return and Cena's story with Kane is bigger than the WWE championship."

What they've done is devalue CM Punk but also the WWE Championship itself.

How could Punk and Ziggler wrestle with a huge hole in the ring??? I think that was the reason Cena and Kane was last.

But ratings with Punk in the main event have being poor. Punk with the IWC's other 2 goldenboys Ryder and Bryan was the worst rated in 15 years a think?!

Yea. But what was the point in that CRAPPY story that made no sense? They could have wrote something better. They should have shown some more respect to punk and the title and made the main event of the FIRST raw of the year the WWE TITLE match.

Maybe they will compare the ratings of the 6 man tag matches? Punk/Ryder/Bryan a few weeks ago to the one that Cena was in. WWE obviously testing the waters to see where the fans interests lie. Probably why Cena was left off the TLC card.

WWE have given Punk alot over the last 6 months. He can't hog the limelight every week if ratings aint increasing.

That is a great point.

A friend of mine brought up another point. He said that the reason the WWE had to put Jericho before the main event and after Punk is because they needed a reason to have the lights out so Kane could get under the ring. They weren't going to have him under the ring for the whole show! I never thought of that but that makes sense. Sorry if it was already brought up earlier.
 
Are you serious right now? Honestly? How many countless times over the passed DECADE has the WWE Champion gone on at the 10 O'clock start? Constantly. It's happened to every champion all the time, Miz, Cena, Orton, and on back through time, Trips, Austin... This is something they do to everyone to have an anchor on the first hour. It is patently absurd to believe this in any way, shape, or form factors into Punk's standings in the company. Not to mention the fact, as mentioned before, you have to put Kane on last if he's going to burn a whole in teh ring.

Oh, and TWJC, Jericho got boos because he was trying to get boos. It was a heel turn designed to turn the huge return singles star pop on its ear.
I know he was trying t get boos. I knew that a few minutes in. they used the fact that his sparkly prancing his is irritating to a lot of people and are using it. It's pretty much what they've always done with Jericho.
