    Punk walking out on a match was the most obvious move in the world. As soon as I heard it was in Chicago, I knew they'd break that out as they keep trying to get him some heat.

    Miz is awful on commentary. Really disappointing. I would have expected much better.

    Miz is fantastic on the mic. He's at the very least better than King.

    And the anger management thing was hilarious.

    I know they wanted to make keep Punk heel in Chicago, but maybe they should have just gone with the flow and let the fans cheer him even though he was heel. The Chicago crowd has been dead since he walked out.

    Not a good way to treat the fans.

    And Miz has been disappointing so far, especially with the arguing with Layla. They spent more time arguing than actually talking about the women in the ring.

    And it also doesn't make sense that the No. 1 contender lost cleanly. Nice way to build up Kaitlyn.

    How much time are they going to waste on this "Hug it Out" session. Yeeesshh.

    That was funny at first, but got old really quick.
     
  7. What do you guys think is the percentage of time they waste on replaying things that happened earlier in the night of a given show? I mean in non-commercial time. I bet it's an absurd number. Just maddening to watch.

    I know somebody on here had Punk aligning with Heyman. Whoever it was, take a bow.

    Snore. What a wasted opportunity to do something interesting with Punk in Chicago, which is hardly ever dead. I'm getting sick of being force fed the whole heel/face dynamics. It's not believeable anymore. Hell, it didn't work 11 years ago with Stone Cold, has no one learned that lesson?

    And Paul Heyman was in the car!

    So, aside from Punk finally aligning with Heyman, what else happened in that last match? I turned it back to the GA Tech-VA Tech when they went to a commercial break after the in-ring intros.

    I forgot to mention, for some odd reason my cable carrier is piping in USA Espanol.

    Very good match that featured Del Rio back-suplexing Cena from the ring steps that were set up next to the table into the table and a couple other decent spots. Match ended in the backstage area when Cena AAed Del Rio onto a storage bin, then Punk came from nowhere, side-kicked Cena, and put Del Rio on him for the pin. Then afterward, Punk did the GTS to Cena, only, instead of using his knee, he dropped Cena face-first on the hood of the car. Then he climbs back in the car on the passenger side, the car starts to go past Cena slowly, and Heyman the driver sticks his head out.
