Isn't that move called the Black Out by Rollins? That flying knee to the head was great. Fucking awesome tag match.

I wish Sheamus had done the job though. I'm so sick of watching people pin Jericho. Is he going for some kind of record for most jobs by a main event level talent? I don't think anyone in the WWE puts people over as much as Jericho does. It's like when you see Kenny on South Park. You know he's gonna die. When you see Jericho in a match, you know he's gonna get pinned. It's almost like a running gag.

The Rock's killing it tonight

Finally rid of that stupid, spinner title

I didn't think they could make the belt look any worse, but I guess I was wrong.

So, triple threat match at Mania after next week?

which leaves Taker vs. Lesnar? Jericho? After Punk anyone else wouldn't make sense.

I'm pretty certain HHH/Lesnar is going to happen - especially with Vince and Heyman having a showdown in coming weeks. That's the favor that Vince has for the DQ stip - Heyman signs up Lesnar to fight HHH...again.

I guess Punk in the main event is a hedge against Taker's health. Also a way to extend out this Cena/Rock madness until Wrestlemania XXX - where Cena FINALLY pins Rock clean.

Actually, they could have Punk win next week. Cena finds a way to still make his way to Mania. Maybe his match with Punk ends controversially, so Vicki or more likely Vince inserts him into the Punk/Rock match for a triple threat match. Then you have Cena going into a Mania match against two guys he's never beaten and you have him pin Punk, beating him for the first time ever and winning the title. This sets up Rock/Cena III since Cena didn't actually pin the Rock to win the title.

That seems like the smartest plan to me if Taker isn't wrestling this year, and you KNOW they want to milk Rock/Cena for all its worth.

So basically, yeah, I agree with you. I can see how this would all play out

The good thing about all this is that it's making Cena human. They're making it seem like a Herculean effort for him to get over on Punk and The Rock, which really, really puts them over

I like where you're coming from here. Especially with Cena pinning Punk at WrestleMania to win the belt. Nice.
