Everyone knew that Punk was going to win the Championship, we just didn't know when or where. I really do like how they had him with the gold. Very nice indeed. However, I do think that they've given him the gold too soon. I think Punk is really good and will be a great performer for decades, but I do think it was way too soon to give him a Championship run. I really don't feel any sort of connection with Punk. Besides the Money in the Bank match itself, there isn't anything in his history that allows me to say, "Remember when Punk _______" He's average at best on the mic. It took him how many times to beat Morrison for the ECW Championship? We'll see what happens, but I don't think he'll have the title that long. Who brings more to the table, Cena or HHH? Hypothically, lets say that you're starting a new federation, and you can draft either HHH or Cena. Who do you pick? I take HHH in a heartbeat. I feel like he's better in the ring, he's better on the mic and he's more versatile (can be heel or face). I would love to hear others' thoughts on this. That's all for now. -The Mulch
