Anyone have anymore links to the CM promos from last Monday Night, 7/11/11?

I've watched here and there throughout the last 10 years and haven't been motivated to even watch a full show. It has been awful, imho.

But all this CM and R Truth stuff that I've seen(which is only stuff from this thread) has been pretty damn good. Best I've seen since the Stone Cold/Rock/Mick Foley days.

I'm probably gonna start watching Raw again now and see this play out and see if it's dope again or has a chance to be.

R Truth kills me with that "little jimmy" shit. Lol.

Also, that Rock video Brougham posted,

. to Cena.. "you graduate from catholic high school then you go hard core thuganomics? phony."
"get your punk ass off the Rock's twitter"

Great match and a great way to continue this arc. All in all it was a great card and the money in the bank matches were great and I was happy that Del Rio won the Raw MIB match.

For once the WWE creative team handled things perfectly. Awesome match and finish, the crowd was unreal.

im almost tempted to watch again, its about time Vince gave us something legitimate.

still mad Ziggler wasnt booked on the MITB match..

hustler · Post by **hustler** » Mon Jul 18, 2011 4:56 am

not a fan of either of the MITB winners. del rio is just a mexican JBL. and daniel bryan just plain sucks. he really is an annoying nerd/pest, i agree with everything cole says about him.
overall it was the best ppv i can remember. crowd was phenomenal.
the sheamous powerbomb through the ladder was highlight of the night for me, along with the punk goodbye kiss and mcmahons expression.

excellent photo.

Great show last night. My first PPV in forever with a bunch of casual-at-best fans who just had to see it because of the pop culture hoopla. Show really delivered.

I think it might have been a conscientious move to make the IC title mean something again, instead of just an accessory for someone to wear while they're waiting to win the world title.

^you right, but im still

@hustler dont go at Alberto like that son, dont mention that chump JBL's name in the same sentence.

Pretty sweet card for raw tonight. Love the fact that Cena is using twitter to sell this work. Punk is gunna come out of the crowd Stone Cold style during the title match.

Prophecy · Post by **Prophecy** » Mon Jul 18, 2011 9:09 pm

Also I can see Del Rio getting eliminated then cashing in on whoever wins the title tonight.

I think Punk is still in Chicago. At least that's what I gather from his Twitter.

Oh yeah, ADR is definitely cashing in tonight

battlecatmeowstab212 · Mon Jul 18, 2011 10:32 pm

I only really enjoy ADR when he has Ricardo, so now that Ricardo's back I'm sure he will be entertaining again.

Honestly, I don't want ADR to cash in tonight, but if he does, the best case scenario would be to cash in on R-Truth as to further Truth's descent into conspiracy madness.

I do wish there was more backstage/character stuff tonight. With all the attention from the Punk angle, it's the WWE's chance to show-off to the lost/casual/new fans.

Sylissez · Post by **Sylissez** » Mon Jul 18, 2011 10:54 pm

Well Lawler kinda telegraphed the finish by saying "one of these two will walk out of here the new champion." Yeah, prolly gonna be ADR. Meh.

Triple H Vs Punk Beef in the future?

Kalel · Post by **Kalel** » Mon Jul 18, 2011 11:14 pm

Well shit.

Sylissez · Post by **Sylissez** » Mon Jul 18, 2011 11:17 pm

I'm wondering if this is them really trying to wrap up the Vince character. He seemed to be soaking up the moment.

HHH has some ridiculous, over the top shoes to fill as on screen boss.

battlecatmeowstab212 · Mon Jul 18, 2011 11:40 pm

I'm still hoping for the best and will be watching next week, but if they come off the heels of this great Punk angle with McMahons-vs-McMahons/Raw is Triple H Part #98702 then count me back out. The show really has (had?) a chance to step up and do something different, but it looks like it might be more of the same.

I see what you're saying and I can't help but fear that as well, but I really don't think they're going that way. I think this was their way to introduce Trips as the new boss, and give Vince (as a character) an understated farewell.

I'd like to see HHH try to lure Punk back the "right" way, then as Punk taunts him from various high school gymnasiums and bingo halls, eventually HHH loses his shit and goes after Punk himself. Of course, if HHH were to beat Punk, that's another story...

This has been the best month for pro wrestling in the last decade. Even without Punk tonight, Raw was the shit. I can't wait for next week.
