It feels disingenuous to disregard all the rumors of CM Punks return at Survivor Series but mention the rumors of Edge’s Royal Rumble return as a reason for it not being a secret. The rumors of Edge’s return sounded ridiculous at the time given his injuries.
I agree, and I usually hate the idea of giving an older wrestler a title just for "one last run" or "they deserve it" but mark was genuinely still good and I would've liked even a month or two long reign for him
As great as the heel turn on Cena was it was only meant to be a short feud to keep Cena busy until Cena dropped the title to Danielson at Summerslam, the Cena/Danielson storyline was planned a good while before as was the Triple H heel turn.
Because announcing his name and having him walk out is such a great moment. The Booker interaction is half of what made that debut so great. It was so out of nowhere, everyone was expecting the surprise to come from Vince, not there. It worked incredibly well.@@tomseville2345
CM Punk 2023 Survivor Series completely got me. I REALLY didn't think it was happening. Then Cult of Personality hit and my phone just exploded, like 15 people at once texting HOLY SH**
@user-qr50x11j5g GOOD ONE! I personally think Jake's Debut was DEFINITELY A TRUE "HOLY S#$T moment! I had a Pro-Wrestling Y.T. Podcast/Talk-Show @ the time (WHICH IS NOW PRETTY DAMN SUCCESSFUL) & We've seen a lot, & predicted a lot of things that actually happened, but I would have never seen that one coming!!
I feel like the people who created the show Young Justice should recreate the Batman Beyond series. For the simple fact of how the Young Justice did their storylines in the show and the artist who were used in the show did a good job.
Punk returns, cuts same promo he did in AEW, enter the Royal Rumble, tear his triceps and missing WrestleMania. They threw a truckload of money at him to wrestle for a month and a half. Good for him, man.
Better call the video "Best kept secrets in TELEVISED wrestling history". NOTHING will ever beat the pop when Ilja Dragunov returned to wXw in the main event of 16 Carat Gold. Look it up people, its on YT.
IMO JAKE "THE SNAKE" ROBERTS debut on AEW was DEFINITELY the biggest shock! B.M. JUNK was DEFINITELY an amazing pop, but it wasn't AS MUCH of a surprise, because of how much people wouldn't STFU about it!😂
Imo, I think CM Punk, Moxley, & Edge's AEW debuts are 3 outta da top 5 GREATEST AEW debuts EVER! Honorable Mention: OKADA (AEW) (Go Listen to Da Pop He Gets)
Last night did it for me.. (during womans rumble) when Michael Cole failed to recall Royal Rumble 94, when explaining to macafee that no 2 men ever won the rumble, while putting over batista and cenas restart... totally deminishing bret and lugers victory, like Wrestlemania X never existed.
How was the CM Punk return a secret? They hinted at it for about 6 weeks and everyone knew it was going to happen and even knew it was at Survivor Series.
So Edge returning to the Rumble couldn't be on the list because of all the rumors surrounding it, but CM Punk can not only be on the list, but be the "best" of the list, despite EVERYONE talking about him coming back before he did? Someone must be a CM Punk fan.
... are we just ignoring the fact that he just said "Fiend Braun Strowman"??? We just gonna brush over him calling a DEAD MAN by the WRONG F*CKING NAME???
Ryback will make his return tonight at the rumble he drew number one. You heard it here first 😂 Sorry with all the Vince McMahon stink they need some putrid stank to get the heat off of him 🤷♂️
