I thought it was early, like I said last night, but it also makes sense to do it while Punk is hot and have the rematch of what's likely the match-of-the-year on a major show like Summerslam. Then that gives them some time to cool the Punk/Cena feud and start to work the Rock back into things by his Survivor Series return.
Although, you would think the next PPV....Night of Champions....would have been a perfect set-up (in name at least) for the fake champion and real champion to meet.
And I hope that's how they play it. That Cena's a fraud, that the entire tournament was a fraud, because that way it doesn't seem that ridiculous that Mysterio only held the title for an hour. Because in fact he didn't hold the title at all...

I totally understand the idea of striking while the iron is hot in terms of Punk. He's was arguable TOO hot to keep off TV, and they can easily make a bonafide franchise star out of him if they play this angle correctly.
I just have a sinking feeling that Cena is going to win clean at SummerSlam, with Punk taking time off after that, and all that good work being undone.
