This was the hottest and most mainstream wrestling has been in my lifetime and I really don't think anything will be able to recapture that magic again. You're either too young to remember or you just weren't watching then if you don't remember how massive it was.

Vince literally bent over backwards for Punk after this. He knew that he was a draw.

Why would Cena fans care? He lost plenty of times. More like Punk fans are the ones still seething over him being "buried"

They were talking about wrestling on ESPN in a time where they NEVER did that. There was buzz for a week because people couldn't figure out if it was a shoot or not. MITB had fucking celebrities flying in to sit front row. It was basically impossible to get tickets unless you were a richfag.

You just would have had to have been there.

Genuinely should have retired here. It's been nothing but downhill ever since. And I don't just mean leaving and retiring and then fucking up AEW. Remember how god awful the followup to this was in WWE? When he feuded with Kevin Nash? When he stood with Triple H against the whole roster?

And right after this Punk failed to draw and then had to cut their losses and put Cena back on top. You're not allowed to acknowledge that though

Punk deserves all the credit in the world for carrying the company while Cena was injured and getting Ryback of all people over.

He buried anyone who appealed to young edgy men. Just look at the burial list and they all were a part of the demographic that the sexy cool badass rebel wanted.

During his long title reign that WWE is trying to erase from existence. People were cheering for Ryback at that Hell in a Cell and that dude had all the charisma of a vacuum cleaner.

They cheered for him because they wanted someone to take the title off Punk and because Punk built him up as a credible threat. You know, effective heel work.

Ryback came out to crickets at PPV's and got Goldberg chants frequently. The idea that he waa ever redhot is such bullshit.
