It was a year ago that CM Punk defeated Alberto Del Rio to win his second (third? forth? I lost count) WWE Championship and that reign continues to this day… and yet I feel somewhat ambivalent about it. You’d think that it would be a cause for celebration that a genuine fan favorite not only got a run with the top belt in the company, but is still champ after a whole year… but honestly, what has that run amounted to? Playing second fiddle to whatever shit main event John Cena has against Big Show and Johnny Ace?
I was hoping this heel run would be a step up and his reign would start feeling like more of a big deal, but honestly, I have a feeling that we’re living on borrowed time. You know Rock is roaming around there somewhere and, well, we need SOMETHING to merit going back on that “Once In A Lifetime” deal that nobody with a functioning half-brain bought for a single second. Hope I’m wrong, but more than likely, I am not.
Now piss off and let me get back to my Fruity Pebbles.
