Per Ibou of Wrestlepurists:
>As some have speculated, the Friendship Bracelet Story is a test for Punk. It’s not a good story, they know it, but the point is to see if Punk complains about it online or just goes along with it.
>Punk proposed the idea of a strap match. It wasn’t that long ago that he was going to have a strap match with Ricky Starks. But Punk got fired, Danielson stepped in, and Ricky and Danielson had a great match. Punk wants that sort of match, but WWE doesn’t do this kind of matches. This will be them slapping the 4 posts, it’s not going to be violent, there won’t be choke spots or anything like that. It’s going to be fine but it’s a WWE style strap match, that’s it.
>This is all designed to see how Punk reacts. There are some backstage who are practically begging for a meltdown, there are people who do not like him. He has a lot of fans, too, but even they realize this is a test for him.
