CM Punk Scenario

[Deezy]

Had a good scenario brought up at another forum, I added a couple of more ideas to it, but didn't get the desired feedback since nothing serious can happen there I guess. Hopefully will get some better feedback here.

All props to Proof even though he probably will not see this.

I just had this really cum in my pants idea over all of this that would not only make Punk the new Austin 3:16 in a way, but also revive wrestling for the general masses.

What if CM Punk leaves the WWE with the WWE Championship?

What if, they have their match, Punk wins the belt, and goes on to RAW the next few weeks cutting amazingly fantabulous promos about how he's leaving the WWE with the belt. The WWE really builds it up as standard as they can, giving off that feel that Cena's going to be the super hero and save the day and keep the belt with the WWE, sending CM Punk off with nothing. This gets the Cena marks all pumped up, and gets the rest of the people interested, but sort of expecting the standard WWE protocol to come into play with Cena winning.

The next PPV comes, they have their match. One of those slobberfests with multiple falls and some pretty painful looking spots. It's one of those matches where it's fake finishes everywhere, constantly someone raising a shoulder/arm. Then they'll get their Cena machine going, and he'll do the standard Hulking up, only to have a complete fucking surprise ending with a GTS somehow being fitted in with a sinister grin on Punk's face, ending with the 123. Punk wins the belt, and "leaves" the WWE.

At this point, people have thought that when Punk left WWE, he was being offically released, etc. They'll have "released" him on the website, taking down all his pictures, signs of him, etc, doing newsbytes with some legit news outlets about having their belt lost to someone not under contract, defending it elsewhere, etc. They'll really amp up kayfabe. This will all be a show, and he will still under contract, WWE will be in agreement with other companies, Punk will take the WWE Belt with him and defend it in companies such as ROH and NJPW.

They'll create a media buzz for the first time about a champion taking a belt and defending it in another company since Ric Flair, almost 20 years ago. Punk will successfully defend the title against all the company's best where he goes, creating a buzz in Japan (and maybe even worldwide) by working with NJPW as the WWE Champion (with NJPW working with WWE to further the story that he is not under contract to them and is their Champion).

They can run this angle with other companies of their choosing for a short period like 2 or 3 months, enough to keep the newspapers printing stories about wrestling, then do the obvious and pull some sort of angle requiring Punk to defend the championship to a contracted WWE superstar, ending in the angle of Punk getting his big run that he wanted, getting his time off, and the WWE and all of wrestling way better off because of it.

Could all work, could even have WWE make a new belt or even bring back an old one.

Problem would be who would Punk have to defend the belt against? With Cena and Rock being set in stone, there is no one else to keep the buzz going.

Why not, have Steve Austin show up unnanounced at a show and have him talk up what Punk did and put over how much the title means to people like him and all the others who carried it and about how Punk just shat all over them with him taking the belt and leaving.

Maybe he could bring back the Smoking Skull belt, or even better the winged eagle one from the Attitude Era and challenge Punk to defend the title against him, since they were having a back and forth on Twitter and Punk wearing a Stone Cold shirt during his "shoot". Bringing Steve Austin out of retirement for one more match against the guy who just made himself a legend among the smark community could bring in even more people than Cena/Rock would.

Thoughts?

CM/SCSA would be fucking amazing.

But my idea is a bit like Proof

I'd have CM take the belt to ROH, defend it and win a few times until around November/December... Where the GM is revealed, Cena is back and the GM announces that ROH will be on WWE next week. CM loses the title back to Cena and Cena can hold it 'til WM and faces The Rock.

I've said it a billion times now. This can be made into one of the most historic storylines ever

I would be stunned if WWE let Punk defend the title in other companies even if it is part of a storyline. It would be so far out of the box that I struggle to see WWE doing it. That is what keeps holding me back with these ideas, I can't see WWE letting their title be shown in other companies even though they are friendly with ROH.

It does give them a reason to create a new title and get rid of the spinner title. It would make Punk a huge star because the heat would be incredible plus it would bring so many fans back to wrestling. Punk vs. Austin at WM28 to go with Cena vs. Rock would be insanely amazing and would blow my mind. Austin says he might be able to do one more match and Punk would be the best option due to their interactions in the past.

If WWE do something like this then I would forgive them for so many things they have done in the past because it would be incredible.

I can see the appeal of the idea, but I think there would be too many complications, and I think in a way WWE and those other promotions will lose out. I think the lines would get a little too blurred, and the focus would be taken off the other talent and title contenders. I guess Punk showing up at a ROH event would be a good thing, but actually defending the WWE title there, I don't know, if they were going to have a WWE VS. ROH war then that would be one thing, but this idea I don't think would work.

You just WAIT until Punk shows up in TNA with the WWE belt haha.

That's all I keep thinking. Vince finally bought TNA
