Damien Priest has a reason not to like CM Punk too. He wanted to prove he could retain the title by himself and now Punk has ruined that credibility.

It's not just that he beat Bron. He beat Bron clean with just one Helluva kick. Bron is supposed to be the next Lesnar and damn near unstoppable.

In the beginning, I thought this was just a punk/drew rivalry but now I think it’s gonna get even more interesting because it’s affecting the other wrestlers within the company when it comes to the title belts. For example, let’s say Drew will be constantly trying to win attempts at a shot at the belts but punk keeps getting in the way, but what that will do is affect the other wrestlers trying to get ahead so it’s basically interfering with what everyone else is doing

Oddly I think Iyo took so much more damage from that Michinoku driver that Starks did. She slammed right into her tail bone, I don't think she was selling afterwards. Zoey had a relatively soft landing by comparison. Also, despite the rocky start, I do think the veterans did a good job of keeping things from descending into chaos, Iyo deserves props for protecting Lyra, and when Naomi was balanced between the two ladders she was in a very precarious and potentially dangerous position when it began to topple, so her balance and athleticism should be noted, I don't know how she kept it together.

I'm fine giving Damian a pass on the kickout, if it did end up being his fault. People make mistakes, and as far as I'm aware, he doesn't have a history of making a ton of them. Just a bad day at the office. It's really unfortunate, though, that the camera was in the *perfect* position to show the non-kickout. If they ever need this moment for a video package, I hope they have other camera angles where it's a bit more obscured. The biggest down for me is putting Damian vs. Rollins in the middle of the show. It just reinforces the idea that the Heavyweight Championship is a secondary title, and nothing that happened in RKOdy vs. Bloodline 2: Electric Boogaloo required the main event spot. If Roman had come back tonight, I would get it, but the whole story was "Jacob Fatu is a monster." That message could have come across just as clearly in the middle of the show, and Punk screwing Drew would have been a fantastic scene to end the PPV on.

Ultimate 2025 mens MITB match. Jey Uso, Sami Zayn, LA Knight - all good enough to win and hold the title, but never have Kevin Owens, Finn Balor - both had one lack-luster reign and way better careers without it (want redemption) John Cena, CM Punk, AJ Styles - all three retiring if they lose - Cena says if he wins MITB he will challenge for 17th reign. When he wins title, he will immediately vacate it and retire. - Punk says due to injuries MITB cash-in will be his last match, and he will retire the ONLY 3time MITB winner and the ONLY 3time successful MITB cashin. Also, he is cashing to main event WrestleMania. - AJ styles said if he wins he will also retire after cashing in. But hints maybe for other than a WWE World Championship (because after winning championshps all over the world he wants to wrestle someone better than a wwe champion. After he loses MiTB it revealed to be a triple threat match against Balor and Rhodes - two members of a certain club. The one that the member led a mutany against so he could lead and the one who couldn't become leader when the club was going through the toilet because he left (this is AJs distorted versions of the truth). He loses cause this match can still happen. Seriously - 8 people and unlike most MITB matches, most of theae competitors are likely to win. With Knight Punk Cena being heavily favored. Zayn Uso mid level, and Styles, Balor, Owens less likely. Follow up - Styles v Balor v Rhodes - Owens v Zayn - Cena v Punk (mania main event Night 1) - LA Knight (wins rumble v Gunther at mania)😮 - at summerslam Jey Uso is bullied into Cashing in MITB (by Jey) to make the title match of "a title changes on DQ" Silo (c) v Rhodes match a triple threat. He helps Solo retain the title as basically a willing assistant - New Bloodline (members who are in it now-Solo no longer champion this point) v Reigns (first match since mania 24) both Usos and The Rock, mania 2026 to night 1

THATS IT!!!!! That is the botch. You could see it in the back ground the lights came up and there was a delay. you nailed. I didnt even think of that. That would explain why DP didnt kick out, and why Seth was looking so confused. Once they get into auto pilot sometimes from rehearsals, that would explain it all.

Golden Up = No one interfered in the ladder matches. Up = IMO MITB cash ins have cheapened the prestige of winning a title, but since Drew lost his immediately, there is no men’s MITB this year. Down = Bron lost? Down = Another knocked out ref?!? Get this man a football helmet and keep a spare ref in the time keeper’s area already. Overall = Up

About the pin in the Rollins-Priest match, my first thought was that maybe Finn had threatened/bribed the referee to not hit the 3 (and that we were going to get the confirmation later on in the PLE when the ref and Finn would have met backstage).

Bron is getting the belt at Summerslam. The story will most likely play out that he was a little too cocky against Sami because he underestimated Sami. They will have a rematch, and Bron will absolutely destroy Sami in that match. As for the Falcon Arrow spot, I felt maybe Damian didn't kick out because of something, but the ref checked on Damian like three times after the spot. It made me think maybe something did happen to Damian in that spot. But then again, he came back and won, so maybe he was waiting for the music cue.

I'm not upset about the failed cash in. But I am disappointed because MITB [should be] used as a way to elevate someone's career to the next level, which so many guys in that Men's match deserve. It does kind of suck that they just chose to use it for more Drew/Punk fuel instead.

I totally get the Breaker booking, because he's not Goldberg, he's Ted DiBiase. Hear me out. DiBiase was the archetypal cocky, entitled heel, thinking he deserved everything and could get everything because of his wealth and throwing around money to get his way. Since coming to the main roster, Breaker has been a cocky and entitled heel, thinking he deserves everything and gets everything because of his athleticism/power and throwing around violence to get his way. He constantly complained about not getting into the King of the Ring, and when he didn't get his way, he violently assaulted people to try and get his way. He knows how naturally talented he is, and thinks because of that things should just go his way, throwing tantrums when it doesn't. So in his first main roster titled challenge, he comes up against a wiley and beloved veteran who, while no match for him in power, manages to get the upper hand. I am good with this. I don't want another Goldberg. Unbeatable monsters are an okay way to build up someone, but they really restrict booking decisions and streaks almost never end in a satisfying manner.
