John Cena Confronts Vince McMahon on CM Punk Suspension

In the after math of CM Punks suspension by the WWE, this past Monday on RAW John Cena called out Vince McMahon looking for answers. Cena said CM Punk should not have been suspended for speaking his mind. John Cena also stated that he wanted to face Punk because that's what the fans want. Vince McMahon said he suspended CM Punk because he couldn't allow Punk to walk out of the company with the World Title. It had gotten so heated that John Cena told Vince McMahon that he didn't sign up for this, and walked out. Vince yelled, "You're just gonna walk out? Like Hogan?". Eventually Vince McMahon caved in and reinstated CM Punk, and put the title match back on for Money in the Bank.

Where does this leave Alberto Del Rio, who earlier in the night had become the replacement number one contender for the World Title? I was mad in one respect because I felt like John Cena had to come out and make it all about John Cena like always, and not about CM Punk. However, it was an effective scene with Cena wondering what else WWE would begin to censor if you can't speak your mind. It almost makes you want to see Stevie Richard and the Rights to Censor faction come back. Easily one of the most engaging story lines in recent memory.

Did CM Punk Go Off Script?

by Brian Phelps (http://wrestlersway.blogspot.com)




On RAW earlier tonight, CM Punk changed the course of wrestling history. He created a defining game changer in professional wrestling. It was beyond controversial. It was beyond edgy. Not since 'Razor Ramon' jumped the guard rail on WCW Nitro and implied he was sent by the WWF to take over has a moment rocked wrestling like this and had fans asking themselves if it was real or not. CM Punk has been proclaiming for weeks that his contract is coming up and he is not going to renew it, which is unusual in itself. During the John Cena/R-Truth tables match, he ran out and costed Cena the match... but then oddly grabbed a microphone and walked up the entrance ramp and sat down. Then... he opened his mouth.

CM Punk committed every cardinal sin a wrestler can make. He came out wearing another wrestlers shirt. He mentioned other promotions (a big no no in WWE) when he proclaimed that he would walk out of the company as the World Champion and maybe go defend the belt in New Japan Pro Wrestling or maybe go back to Ring of Honor. He shouted out a non-WWE employee... ROH wrestler Colt Cabana, waving at the camera and saying "Hey Colt Cabana, how you doing?" He told John Cena that he actually liked John Cena, that he didn't hate him. He told Cena he was really great at kissing Vince McMahons ass... as good as Hulk Hogan was and almost as good as Dwayne (The Rock). He broke the fourth wall by looking at the people at home and waving. He then talks about how he is sick of the idea that John Cena is the best wrestler. Punk says he is the best WRESTLER and has been since day one. He told us that The Rock headlining Wrestlemania 28 makes him sick. The icing on the cake is when he says that maybe the company would be better off if Vince McMahon were dead, but it won't because it will be ran by his idiot daughter (Stephanie) and doofus son-in-law (Triple H). He even credited Paul Heyman for giving him a chance "Yes, I'm a Paul Heyman guy". CM Punk committed probably every no no that you could do in the business. Now, everyone has been asking if it was real or scripted after his microphone was cut off and the show was cut off during his anti-WWE rant. It was said that after RAW went off the air Michael Cole stated that Punk was suspended indefinitely, but were the WWE just trying to save face by trying to cover up Punk's off script antics? Whether it was scripted, real, imaginary... it doesn't matter. The world is talking about it. CM Punks shoot promo just joined the hostile take over of WCW, Austins 3:16 speech, and Shane McMahons purchase of WCW as the most shocking moments in professional wrestling history.
