Brahma Bull Posted December 6, 2014 Report Share Posted December 6, 2014 I'm glad he left. It's a more real version of what happened in 2011 and accomplished more than Summer of Punk ever did. He made the right move and he really did deserve to be in the main event for WM 29 as the reigning champion. He made a great decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarGreymon77 Posted December 6, 2014 Report Share Posted December 6, 2014 Punk still doesn't get it, though. It's kind of like when you listen to J.R.'s podcast and he sounds like he doesn't understand certain opinions from the fans' perspective because he's been an insider for so long. You've got to be able to put yourself in somebody else's shoes if you want to understand why they feel the way they feel. The reason why some people were acting like "You owe us" is not because "You're a wrestler, now get your ass in that ring and perform." It's not a disrespectful or mean thing towards him (other than by some kids or jackasses, I guess). It's just that he kinda disappeared in a very sudden way, without warning. People don't like to be left hanging. Doesn't matter to me, though. As for the chants, I always thought they were idiotic. They're disrespectful towards AJ, they're disrespectful towards the talent, they're disrespectful towards Punk whether he realizes it/cares or not, they add nothing to the show, and they serve no purpose other than to get the crowd over. I'm surprised that neither Cabana nor Punk put over Austin or his podcast. Austin's an awesome guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lightning116 Posted December 6, 2014 Report Share Posted December 6, 2014 To be fair The Undertaker earn that respect and leeway for sticking with the company through good and bad times. this. he's been there since 1990 and never left for another company or other types of work. he is the ONLY one that ever earned the right to be part time. and i will always stand be that belief! NostalgiaGod also mentioned Shawn Michaels, but I agree. I got that feeling behind Punk lashing out at Taker is this idea of him being mightier than him which is disrespectful in my book. Or what he said about The Rock, or Dwayne as he likes to say and you have no idea how much that annoys me when he and his fanbase does it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M3J Posted December 6, 2014 Report Share Posted December 6, 2014 Can't blame Punk for being angry at losin to Rock given that even Rock has had people put him over by part-time legends and rivals that were about to leave. However, the Streak is different. Him leaving is exactly why he was chosen not to beat the Streak. though hopefully, Brock puts someone good over, like Cesaro.

Guest Posted December 6, 2014 Report Share Posted December 6, 2014 ^ Punk isn't angry he dropped the title to Rock. He just wishes they went with his triple threat idea for Mania cause he knew Cena/Rock II would suck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M3J Posted December 6, 2014 Report Share Posted December 6, 2014 Oh right, forgot he said he was okay with it. how did he know that though? Rock being too steroided to go at it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He just wishes they went with his triple threat idea for Mania cause he knew Cena/Rock II would suck. And that notion about him using politics to get into the WrestleMania main event and making it a Triple Threat elimination match? Just him saying 'even if he was eliminated within the first 3 minutes he wouldn't have mind' just screamed 'bulls**t' in my head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HatsuneMiku Posted December 6, 2014 Report Share Posted December 6, 2014 Well cena vs rock 3 suck really bad so was he wrong about it when he said it was going to suck No he was 100% right I think he would made the match in did all that year with every other ppv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lightning116 Posted December 6, 2014 Report Share Posted December 6, 2014 ^ Everyone knew Cena/Rock 2 would not be good. What I'm not buying is his notion of him being in the match and not having a problem if he were eliminated three minutes into it. I call shenanigans on that.

St★rstruck Posted December 6, 2014 Report Share Posted December 6, 2014 ...But at the end of the day, as long as he got what he felt was his deserving spot in the main event of WreestleMania, he was fine. Although, I feel like him saying he wouldn't be bothered if he were eliminated in the first three minutes was an exaggeration. The idea of the match being under elimination rules sounded bad anyways.

WarGreymon77 Posted December 6, 2014 Report Share Posted December 6, 2014 I don't get Punk's gripe with "part timers", a.k.a. LEGENDS. Losing to Taker should be an honor. And he seems like he has a bone to pick with Y2J. If I were Jericho, I'd be like *Censored* you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LEGION Posted December 6, 2014 Report Share Posted December 6, 2014 I don't get Punk's gripe with "part timers", a.k.a. LEGENDS. Losing to Taker should be an honor. And he seems like he has a bone to pick with Y2J. If I were Jericho, I'd be like *Censored* you. Then listen to his podcast again. His problem was not directly losing to them, it was that his work was not appreciated by the higher ups. He was getting less money for the events, had to work more (and harder in order to make them look good) and his ideas were constantly scrapped, ignored & given to other people.

classiq. Posted December 6, 2014 Report Share Posted December 6, 2014 Just listened to part 2 last night. Glad this is over and done with and he can get back to living his life. I like what he said about Vince's "apology" but I totally see both sides of things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.Dreadful Posted December 6, 2014 Report Share Posted December 6, 2014 Shawn also earned the right to be part time if he wanted. If a wrestler busted his butt, He's earned the right to be part time. Can't say Undertaker is the "only" person who earned it. Taker is a boss but others have earned it. i agree HBK has earned a right to be part time, but we know Shawn will never wrestle again. thats why i said "only Undertaker".

HatsuneMiku Posted December 7, 2014 Report Share Posted December 7, 2014 WWE doesn't care about legends. Only does now because the roster is thin and they need them for sales . Never seen in Raw Is War era Old NWA stars coming to raw or even WWWF Stars. Asking stone cold to lost to person that wasn't full time wouldnt have happen. So They could Take stone cold heat so why does it happened now ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And he seems like he has a bone to pick with Y2J. If I were Jericho, I'd be like *Censored* you. His gripe is with the fact booking has several part timers going over him in a short period of time, then disappearing into the night so to speak and leaving him with a HUGE loss on his record and them no where to be found. So he put over literally nothing, and despite having good matches the higher ups don't see it as him getting a rub in the least bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
