I'm not sure how to read it. Saying his contract up could mean he's staying, but I thought he was getting some time off.

I've never been a big Ron Killings fan. I like that they give somebody else a chance for a change (which wasn't ever really going to be a chance...) but I've been watching the guy for years and years, back to when I actually watched TNA. I've never liked the rap gimmick, I've never liked the dance gimmick, so I should like what he's doing now, but it's just not working for me for some reason.

The instant Punk leaves (not take time off, leaves) is the instant that I no longer care at all about WWE programming.

At the very least, I'm sure he's taking some time off. Other than a few months because of a hip injury (and he stuck around to be an announcer), I don't think he's had any real time off since he debuted in '06. That said I'm not sure that they'd bring up his contract if he didn't re-sign.
But either way, it'll be interesting to see what happens at MITB & the next night. Cause if he's not coming back, it'll be tough for me to watch. ... Credit to Vickie for losing a lot of weight, but this is incredibly stupid. |

I'm pretty close to done already. I knew it was a 3-hour Raw, but I didn't turn it on until almost 9 o'clock. Lucky for me it was right when Punk's entrance music started.

But the time off is an issue too. He's worked harder for them than anybody else has since he debuted on ECW. Guy's been a real workhorse. Quote:

Punk's opening segment and the triple threat match, along with a segment with Miz, Christian & Truth have been the only 2 decent things of the night. If I never hear "Power to the People" again, it'll be too soon. |

I just don't get what they're doing with Miz. They obviously see something in Riley, but I sure as hell don't.

I believe Vince has been doing this longer than I've been alive. Assuming that to be the case you would think he'd realize by now that giving the heels an occasional win, or even an advantage, would make the payoff of the faces overcoming adversity mean something. Cena and Orton right now are like the lovechild of Hulk Hogan and Hulk Hogan's twin sister. There's nothing sympathetic about either guy, it's just month after month of reinforcement that they're stars and everybody else sucks.
Hopefully Punk can add something interesting to the mix, but I'm sure he's just another guy being fed to Cena. |
