[Rodey]

Vince is fired?

[kittensXLI]

So awesome. :lol

[jackisback24]

Punk re signed???

[JRS1386]

Why is he holding the mic like that

[jackisback24]

forced to resign, Vince?????????

[Crush086]

H looks like he'll rip those sleeves if he flexes too hard. He looks huge.

[jackisback24]

HHH to take over??? Shane?

[JRS1386]

It would be hilarious if it was punk taking over but we know it's haitch

[GrooGrux420]

HHH is taking over!

I wish it really was true though. :shrug

[justinandimcool]

Pedigree his ass!

[jackisback24]

nope, H.

[Rodey]

Stupid.

Now HHH will just re-hire Punk and the whole storyline will be wasted.

[jackisback24]

You're fired!:lol

[Crush086]

Cena not fired. Like we didn't see that coming.

[kittensXLI]

I thought it'd be a contract signing with Punk.

Cena....You're Fired!!!!

But Rock might interrupt!!!!
Punk re signed???
HHH to take over??? Shane?
When did you lose your mind?

[jackisback24]

Stupid.

Now HHH will just re-hire Punk and the whole storyline will be wasted.
Please no. He's a doofus, remember!

[GrooGrux420]

Vince has the waterworks going! Awesome! :lol

[Crush086]

Crowd cheering Vince's firing lol

[JRS1386]

Poor Vince :-(

[kittensXLI]

H is such a bad actor. :lol

Pedigree his azz!

Blollool. Hey the Sox are in first place. I'm gagagiddy.:bounce

[GrooGrux420]

Ah... how cute.

[jackisback24]

I love you pop? This angle has jumped the whatever.

[jackisback24]

I don't get this. Standing O?

[Crush086]

Coulda done without the gay love you pop line.

[kittensXLI]

Just think how much time could've been saved had the Divas trash not been included tonight.

[jackisback24]

Thank you Vince? What the........weird shiznit.

[jaking1185]

Is this how Vince retires himself?

[justinandimcool]

:lol :lol :lol I don't know what to think. If HHH is gonna have a GM type role I'm all for it. If not, what's the whole point?

[bradshaw06]

mehs. was hoping for a punk appearance somewheres.

[DmBand801]

So, this is how to write yourself off TV...

[Rodey]

That ending sucked so much balls.

[kittensXLI]

Is this how Vince retires himself?
Yeah this seemed completely left-field, obviously.

At the least, Mr. McMahon seems finished at last. Too bad it's not furreal furreal though.

[hbktonyb]

There seemed to be something real in that. Vince off tv for good?

I liked it.

[jaking1185]

Glad I didn't go tonight. Kind of a letdown.

[DmBand801]

There seemed to be something real in that. Vince off tv for good?

I liked it.

He was supposed to be off TV for good after his match with Hart last year too.

[kittensXLI]

That ending sucked so much balls.
Eh, I disagree. It was just random, not sucky.

I guess it makes sense considering Vince lost the title. But with the so-called title tournament, it was just too much for one night.

[canes101190]

Triple H's in-ring days are numbered anyway, this is a good transition to keep him in the game by "firing" Vince.

[kittensXLI]

Minus the Divas crap, tonight was such a strong Raw. Every match was quality.

[JacobLovesYou]

How in the hell is tonight a letdown? The start of Chairman HHH that will likely last for Years, plus like6 great TV matches. This was the first RAW in forever that's WRESTLING was the focus.

[jcomey]

People actually do that?

The ESPN book, when that comes out in PB, will have about 150 added pages. Bill Simmons' book had about 100 added pages, if I remember correctly.

[justinandimcool]

Triple H's in-ring days are numbered anyway, this is a good transition to keep him in the game by "firing" Vince.

HEYOOOOO! :high five

Shane's in broadband in China, and is a part-time sports agent (golfers, mainly); he won't be with WWE anytime soon, if ever again.

Well there can still obviously be heat with the Punk/WWE storyline considering he ripped on H in that promo last month. I think it's a fine story, but putting the ending of tonight with the first 100-110 minutes tonight made little sense. Just too much at one time.

[justinandimcool]

Well I'd like to congratulate WWE for the 5 or so good wrestling matches put on tonight in addition to the 3 great ones last night, didn't expect that at all.

I guess we'll have to wait until next week to see how the Punk thing plays out, but I really hope there is still some sort of involvement there. Just dropping Punk from the best story line since the Montreal screwjob would not be smart.

Another part of me dislikes this angle because you know god damn well Vince is still in control of day to day operations. Trust me on that one. It's just so un-believable.

[jackisback24]

How in the hell is tonight a letdown?

1-New title not settled one way or another
2-No CM Punk in any way
3-Cena skates....
4-Vince and HHH's bad acting to close the show

Maybe HHH taking over Vince was a metaphor for a "new" Attitude era taking over the PG era? :D

[DMBfan41]

If H runs the show now, he better actually take over the show. No more anonymous Raw GM. Crown a new champion next week and then Punk comes back with his championship. Summerslam Main Event: Champion vs Champion: CM Punk vs The Miz.

Drunk at Cubs game? Straight Edge don't drink.

[JacobLovesYou]

Not saying Vince wont be involved anymore, but HHH has been extremely involved backstage for a long time now

[BAHHHTIWaC]

My favorite part about what they're doing in the 'E right now is the realism and multidimensional characters. It's not good v. evil. Vince came out as a bad guy to fire Cena, gets jeered at when fired, then cheered after he starts crying and HHH leaves the arena. Loving what they're doing.

[BotheDMBFan]

I hope champ v champ happens...BECAUSE I'LL BE THERE BITCHES!!!

Dot Net reader Doug Simmons attended Monday's WWE Raw in Green Bay, Wisconsin and passed along the following report.

After cameras went off, Vince McMahon removed his jacket, tie, and belt because he wanted to fight. John Cena's music hit. Cena got in the ring to talk to Vince, who said, "Screw you" and slammed the mic down. He slapped Cena and knocked his hat off.

Cena backed Vince into the corner, then Dolph Ziggler, R-Truth, and The Miz ran in and beat down Cena. Santino Marella, Evan Bourne, and Zack Ryder hit the ring and made the save. All of the heels powdered, leaving only Ziggler in the ring with the babyfaces.

Cena hit Ziggler with the Five Knuckle Shuffle. Sanctio hit The Cobra. Ryder hits his finisher. Cena gave ziggler the Attitude Adjustment, and Bourne nailed his finisher. The babyfaces powdered and celebrated with the ringside fans.

[comerelaxnow]

I was really thrown off by HHH's charactor tonight. Didn't seem right. He was basically Shane. We all know he is Vinces son-in-law and they have mentioned that in storylines and stuff but since when is HHH a "loving" family member to the point where he's crying because he loves Vince so much and it hurts him so much to hurt Vince? And since when does he call him Pops?

CM Punk is still recognized as WWE Champ on the WWE website, and is still on the Raw roster.

Didn't Pac say that what we saw was basically real?

Yeah he did, but I just can't see Vince giving control to Haitch. I think Haitch just takes over Vince's role on tv as the man in charge. I hope the first thing he does is end the GM thing.

If Vince was really leaving his duties there would be an announcement to the corporate sector since WWE is a public company.

Yeah, all of this is true.

[BotheDMBFan]

I think it could be more than that, and that H will just handle the mundane day to day stuff, with Vince having the final say on matters that actually matter to him.

[hbktonyb]

That's def possible as well. Vince was certainly balling his eyes out yesterday.

Exclusive: Rock Confirmed For SSeries, Major Promo Planned
by Nick Paglino
Jul 19, 2011

The RockAmidst speculation that The Rock might appear at this year's WWE Survivor Series PPV, due to a Tweet posted by the former WWE Champ last week, WrestleZone has learned exclusively that Dwayne Johnson is indeed confirmed to appear at this year's annual PPV.

Additionally, WZ has learned that WWE is planning a huge media campaign to support The Rock's appearance at Survivor Series 2011, which will take place at Madison Square Garden. "With SummerSlam taking place in Los Angeles, WWE is going to go all out to promote Rock at MSG," a key WWE insider told us this evening.

"(WWE Chairman) Vince (McMahon) really wants to exploit The Rock's mainstream credibility to the max with this major pay-per-view appearance, which will officially kick off the direct push into Rock vs Cena at WrestleMania 28."

Yeah, I was hoping for more. The beginning was pretty good with his family upbringing, but the chapters are so short. I'd say the Bill Demott book is in my top 20 favorite wrestling autobiographies out there, and I've read some good ones (Billy Graham's was very underrated as was Gary Hart). I just picked up the Roadies book as it looked interesting as I wait for Stan the Lariat/The Man Hansen to be released.

Ya, but he let us that we need to be hooge, and the Canada is Mexico North, but with apologies to all the Mexicans out there.

[JacobLovesYou]

Don't know if any of You guys had heard anything, but when I was in Chi a few weeks ago for the dmbcaravan, there was an article in the. Paper about punk & WWE and it said something about Ryder taking over the nexus soon?

[BotheDMBFan]

If Ryder takes over Nexus, I will fucking cry.

[BotheDMBFan]

Though, I'm not sure if those would be tears of joy or sadness.

[bartender_man]

So what do yall think will happen with Punk?? think he comes back or is he down for good? I hope he comes back because that guy is fucking unreal.

[BotheDMBFan]

I think they have a plan set up for Punk. I doubt the E, with their VAST resources, couldn't give him whatever he wanted. I wouldn't be shocked to see him show up with Colt Cabana. Sadly, Christopher Daniels won't come with. Stupid Father Time.

Just rewatched the Punk match and it's still awesome

[kittensXLI]

That had to have been Cena's best match. It's the only match with him in it I can watch more than once or twice. Or 25 times.

Punk's entrance is still absolutely unreal.

edit 2: looks like it has to do with having a quoted post in the same post as a spoiler.

[kittensXLI]

Makes it sound kind of weird saying it was his best match, but I still think Cena was really bad in the match. However it's probably the best he'll ever do. Michaels and Jericho are the only two people/matches that ever got something "good" out of him. Which is a shame for Miz considering he could work a main event feud with any "normal" star that will lose a match/get pinned. SuperCena is seriously the worst.

I was there, but I'd really like to watch the telecast of punk/Cena, is it on YouTube?

couldnt find who mentioned it before but the promo that punk/michaels did when punk said "anymore" after michaels brought up drinking and drugs was hilarious. There is no way michaels saw that coming

Triple H responded by saying that the WWE is under new management and that CM Punk should give him a call. In CM Punk fashion, he responded by saying "Stephanie has my number".

Maybe I am being niave but why would he show up to the wwe portion with the wwe title and a bullhorn if he was just going for the event. Just seems pretty over the top for a rib or just to have a bit of fun with his old company. Especially considering the fact that wwe probably would have taken the title back from punk seeing as the belt is not his property.

Those type of interviews are closed off after they reach capacity/already have started. In the beginning you can see the security guy, waiting for him, and opening the door without even asking him anything. It was definitely planned before hand.

Actually, now looking back at it, he should have started using the bullhorn/making a scene OUTSIDE the interview room, and then worked his way in.

[BotheDMBFan]

I think bothedmbfan said he was buying SS tickets either last night or today. So I think they're on sale now.

I meant Summerslam, I think he means Survivor Series.

[kittensXLI]

Oh really? Survivor Series is so far away though.

[BotheDMBFan]

It's at MSG this year, no? He lives in New York, so that's my guess.

[Nick11dx]

Yes i do live in NYC and I meant Survivor Series. Sorry damn abbreviations anyone know about Survivor Series, just dont want to miss it.

so i went to purchase a ticket to monday night raw in columbus on September 5th. I was ready to buy one ticket but the site froze up and said try again, so i did and got a different ticket selection but i was still happy with it, so i went ahead and bought it with no problem. I look at my email for confirmation and i apparently bought BOTH tickets.... so i have two singles tickets that are miles apart in the arena and i don't think i can cancel it.

Mark Henry injures Kane
July 23, 2011
Tags: SmackDown: July 22, 2011, Kane, Mark Henry

Similar to what he did to Big Show at Money in the Bank (Watch | Photos), Mark Henry brutalized Kane's leg using a steel chair on the July 22 edition of SmackDown. The attack occurred just moments after Orton defeated Kane in a brutal Street Fight. (Watch | Photos).

According to WWE doctor Michael Sampson, Kane suffered a fractured fibula, which will keep him out of the ring for at least three months. “But because of potential complications with such a severe injury, it could also keep him out of action for an undetermined amount of time,” Sampson said.

Prior to taking out two of WWE largest Superstars, Henry brutalized a WWE audio technician (Story). Stay with WWE.com for more details on all of these incidents.

Did you call Ticketmaster CS and tell them? They typically don't allow for refunds, but I've had the same thing happen to me before and they were able to cancel one of them. Tell them it was a site glitched/froze and didn't get a conformation email until AFTER you bought the other ticket and are willing on dropping the better ticket (if the other one isn't that bad). Worse comes to worse, sell it on the bay for face.

[JacobLovesYou]

yeah worse comes to worse you can put it on stubhub for face or even a little below and it'll be gone immediately from some scalper trying to flip it

[Crush086]

Zeke could have potential, I just wish he'd work on his moveset. Most everything he did to Christian was a slam of some sort, but I did like the Samoan Drop he tossed in there.

The street fight was pretty good too. I need to start watching SD more often I suppose.

[Speilmen230]

Is stubhub reliable? I just don't trust sending out the tickets before i get the money in my account. I really don't want to get ripped off.

Punk has seemingly made his first non-WWE appearance in wrestling since he took the WWE Championship with him on his way out of the WWE. According to Jimmy Jacobs and the photo that accompanies this post, CM Punk cut a promo in-front of the AAW fans tonight. I’ll update this post as more news comes in, but for right now… It’s cool to see/hear.

Where will Punk show up next?

[GrooGrux420]

Is stubhub reliable? I just don't trust sending out the tickets before i get the money in my account. I really don't want to get ripped off.
Stubhub is good, but they charge like a 15% fee. So if you sell it for $50, they take $7.5 (netting $42.5) and then the buyer has to be willing on paying 15% service fee to purchase it. So that $50 ticket goes up to $60 + shipping. You really lose out, and especially with a single that isn't on the floor or first few rows of lowers.

Better off just selling it on ebay, and all you have to worry about is shipping it off after payment. Ebay is a much easier seller's market.

And THIS is how we know Punk is re-signed.

[BotheDMBFan]

He either re-signed, or he has an agreement in place to come back at a later date...hopefully Summerslam...I'm really hoping it's Summerslam...

[Speilmen230]

A report in The Wrestling Observer pointed out a very interesting trend. It reminded us that this is the fifth straight summer where Vince has done an angle with a "losing control of the company" theme.

2007- Vince's limo blowing up.

2008- The Raw stage collapsed on him.

2009- He sold Raw to Donald Trump and later had to drop the angle when stock prices went down significantly.

2010- Nexus attacked McMahon and left him in a coma until he showed up on television the night before Election Day when his wife Linda McMahon was running for U.S. Senate in Connecticut.

And now 2011, where he has been fired and Triple H is taking over.

[jackisback24]

http://www.wrestleview.com/viewnews.php?id=1311445336


They should have Punk show up for either ROH or NJPW to keep the buzz going. I really hope when he appears on WWE TV again that the buzz does not become completely deflated.

[Speilmen230]

I think if punk has his fair share of input to how and where this storyline goes it will be really hard for them to have the heat on this storyline burnout.

I think punk is good enough to keep it fresh.
