WWE RAW LD 7/25/2011 - The King is Dead, Long Live the King

Punk used Cult of Personality in RoH. It's a great song and it fits the all white, face/heel role he has going, but I *LOVE* his usual theme. Maybe this one is just something he's using while he's "unsigned" as another hint that he can go back to RoH.

It's a GREAT entrance theme, so much so that it was featured in an article by Bill Simmons on espn.com as one of the best entrance themes ever. It has everything you want in a theme.
 
Cena vs. Punk vs. Mysterio at Summerslam?

For the sake of epicness, I think it's gotta be just Cena vs Punk. Second biggest show of the year and you've had this two who in one month have built a fantastic story. Rey just doesn't fit into the story, though I'm not sure where else he could be put other than with ADR again

Cena vs Punk with the Rock as guest referee or doing a run-in sounds more like it.

As opposed to those "We really don't give a shit about the Ratings show"

They burned a ton of material on this show and took some liberties as far as stories go to do it. Consequently some stuff that could have been bigger later was almost just lost in the shuffle.

Rey has Rematch clause. I think by putting Rey in the main-event, you can sell Punk vs. Cena at the PPV following Summerslam. Besides, as we saw tonight, Rey can hold his own in the main-event still, so it's not like he'd water down the match.
 
God, I hope not. The Rock already ruined the Wrestlemania main-event, he doesn't need to do the same to Summerslam.

I hope not also but the chances of him not being involved in this whole thing are minimal. The only silver lining I could see is that it could set up a Rock-Punk match before the wrestlemania build. I'd really like to see an adult cut some promos with the Great One. Or dare I suggest Wrestlemania could be a three way dance?

Not saying he would, as I said earlier he is one of the best in the ring and has been for 20 years. I just think it'd be better to have that on Raw in the coming weeks and have Miz screw him or something.

This entire thing is built off Punk vs Cena...the IWC vs casual fans, kids/women vs guys, an indies star vs the perceived best in the biggest company. Punk vs Cena is something we've been wanting for years. I wouldn't mind seeing it at a few ppv's in a row. Just add a gimmick at NOC, no DQ or something, and then HIAC.

I thought Rock was showing up at Survivor Series, not Summerslam.
 
Yeah, Rock's busy filming various films I believe. He's going to be at Survivor Series and he's been advertising the crap out of that rather than SummerSlam.

You can still do that, but Summerslam is already going to sell well. You need buys for the following PPVs.

Man no fucking way is that Killswitch song better than Cult of Personality.

Agreed. CM Punk's song is fucking awful.
