Hey, you're back, that's cool. WWE is so desperately short of genuine stars. Punk and Miz are cool. However, they are in the same category as 'not quite Chris Jericho'. Unfortunately, all three slot into the category of 'not quite The Rock'. Long story short, we need Jericho and The Rock back on full time bases, if only in the 5 weeks up until WrestleMania.

The Kane and John Cena feud which looks to be developing should be good fun. Will be interesting if Kane talks and where they are going with his character.

Triple H appears pencilled in to face Undertaker. However, I'd look far more forward to Punk or Jericho taking the challenge. Punk Vs Jericho appears to be a match which is also pencilled in for the WWE Championship. However, I think the two are wasted on each other. They can each elevate a promo to genuine heated status on their own so we do not need both of them. Obviously, the thinking is that together, their work will exceed what they could do in separate feuds, but we'll see.

I've not seen anything for a couple of months. Didn't actively make a decision to stop, but the way the Punk magic got fizzled out in a haze of HHH/John Lauranitis bollocks was a big turn-off I guess. I'll get back into it no doubt, do a bit of a catch-up over Xmas etc.

Punk vs Jericho is heavily rumoured for WM. Hope they can find a more interesting opponent for Taker than HHH though, we've seen it all before, and good as HHH is, he's not like HBK in the way you can just watch him over and over again. Would rather see Taker vs Miz to be honest, not sure what value there is in booking two guys who are permanently over against each other, again. Especially when it's not going to be an event short on star power.

I guess last week RAW pretty much sealed it that they are going for Taker vs HHH at next year Wrestlemania. Punk vs Jericho would be great if it happens

No. That was the suspension which caused the fake Sin Cara (--> Sin Cara Negro --> Hunico) to be introduced. He hasn't been on TV because he tried to leap over the top rope to the outside at Survivor Series and injured his leg badly.

Was so horrific to watch. I'm pretty sure the leg went as he tried to jump and so he got caught on the top rope and crashed to the floor.

Pretty decent even. Main event was good. Lots of meh stuff though, Big Show vs Mark Henry and HHH vs Nash were decidedly meh.

RAW last night was great though. Bryan/Punk/Ryder vs Ziggler/Del Rio/Miz was great, lots of action for a TV match. The E's TV matches have actually been really strong for a while now. Makes a nice change, doesn't seem that long ago that Duffer and I would sit in this thread and complain about the lack of good wrestling on RAW in particular, they seemed to have turned the corner in this regard.
