    Yea I think I read somewhere that his contract pretty much states that Brock would average about two appearances per month. Seeing as he's been on three shows so far within this first month I'd imagine they'll play this "quit" scenario out for at least a couple more weeks (sometime after Over The Limit).

      Heyman doesnt want back in, he's just Lesnar's buddy/adviser and wants to help the angle. He advised Lesnar all through the UFC run, too.

      Vince doesnt care about bad blood. He always does business with people he dislikes if he thinks its good for the company. This is a great way to keep Lesnar on fans minds and keep the story rolling while they save dates. Vince doesnt have to like Heyman to know that Heyman can cut awesome promos.

        Its kinda funny. I thought poorly of TNA when they signed Rob Van Dam to a contract with a limited number of dates, then gave him the world title and burned through a whole bunch of them. Their solution was to have RVD "injured", drop the belt, take time off for said "injury". He returned to action while the tournament to crown a new champion was still going on. Thought that was retarded all the way around by TNA. Now WWE does the same thing, to an extent, at least in regard to the contract. But they managed to plan ahead a bit (apparently) and book something that looks decently entertaining. That says something about the difference between the two companies.

          WWE covering Punk & Bryan's ROH days and indy greatness

          CM Punk and Daniel Bryan have gone from two Superstars who "weren't supposed to make it" to battling for the WWE Championship at WWE Over the Limit. And the road to get there was not an easy one. Before The Second City Saint and the WWE's No. 1 "YES!" man square off, take a look at the long, strange history of the most unlikely WWE Championship rivalry of all time.


          CM Punk and Daniel Bryan will battle for the WWE Championship at Over the Limit. But before they meet in the squared circle, check out exclusive photos from their independent careers through their time in WWE.


          Don't think they mention ROH by name though.

                Years before they meet for the WWE Championship, CM Punk and Daniel Bryan give the customary handshake of the INDEPENDENT WRESTLING PROMOTION before a match..

                CM Punk infamously (as legend has it) singed his WWE contract using his INDEPENDENT WRESTLING PROMOTION championship as the clipboard, igniting the "Summer of Punk"...

                LOL

                    WM 1- The tag gets a pass because it was all spectacle and unique in that it was the first. Throw in Ali trying to punch Piper and it was a fun little deal.

                    WM 2- Hogan vs. Bundy in a cage. Was what it was, Hogan versus the monster heel.

                    WM 3- Hogan vs. Andre -- historic but a bad match because Andre could barely move.

                    WM 4- Savage vs. Dibiase -- Solid match but had the storyline finish to plant the seeds for the Savage/Hogan feud.

                    WM 5-Hogan vs. Savage -- the first real good match.

                    WM 6-Hogan vs. Warrior -- historic as it's the first time Hogan lost at the show, suppose to have been a passing of the torch and it was arguably Warrior's best match up to that point.

                    WM 7-Hogan vs. Slaughter -- a fun brawl if you throw out the way they exploited the war. First main event to have blood as Hogan bled a gusher.

                    WM 8-Hogan vs. Sid -- terrible with a fucked up finish, although it did have a memorable end to the show with Hogan & Warrior celebrating

                    WM 9-Hogan vs. Yokozuna -- bullshit

                    WM 10-Bret vs. Yokozuna -- not a good match, a fuck finish (Yoko just randomly falls off the ropes and gets pinned)

                    WM 11-LT vs. Bam Bam -- a pretty good match considering LT blew up early on. Still among the lesser main's

                    WM 12-HBK vs. Bret -- either you like this match or you don't…I don't.

                    WM 13-Taker vs. Sid -- a forgettable match, not good.

                    WM 14-HBK vs. Austin -- launched the Austin era, Shawn working with a fucked up back on pain pills still managed to do a decent job. Not a great match but solid and even had Tyson punch out HBK at the end.

                    WM 15-Austin vs. Rock -- Great main event.

                    WM 16-Rock vs. HHH vs. Big Show vs. Foley -- ridiculously overbooked, not one of my favorites

                    WM 17-Austin vs. Rock -- the ending takes it down a notch but still one of the best main events in WM history (this show is the best WM ever)

                    WM 18-Jericho vs. HHH -- terrible, forgettable, meh

                    WM 19-Angle vs. Lesnar -- A solid match but they had better on other PPVs….the fucked up finish takes away from it too (amazing to think that Angle was working this match with his neck hanging together by a thread basically….but it was Brock who nearly died in the ring).

                    WM 20-HHH vs. HBK vs. Benoit -- Would have been remembered as one of the best WM matches ever until 2006 happened. Outstanding storytelling, action and the memorable finish.

                    WM 21-HHH vs. Batista -- A good match, great story and the finish everyone wanted.

                    WM 22-Cena vs. HHH -- Not a great match, your average big WM match although the crowd in Chicago was red hot.

                    WM 23-Cena vs. HBK -- A very good match although their 60-minutes in London was better.

                    WM 24-Edge vs. Taker -- A very good match although it's lost some luster with what Undertaker has since done at the show.

                    WM 25-HHH vs. Orton -- one of the worst main events ever. Crowd was dead and the match was boring as all hell.

                    WM 26-Taker vs. HBK 2 -- the rematch lived up to the hype and then some. Whether you prefer their first or this match, doesn't matter, both were awesome.

                    WM 27-Miz vs. Cena -- not a good match. All the attention was on what Rocky would do. Bad match.

                    WM 28-Rock vs. Cena -- Haven't rewatched it since April 1st, but it had the crowd and was a fun match.



                    My top 10……..in no order
                    Hogan/Andre
                    Hogan/Savage
                    Hogan/Warrior
                    HBK/Austin
                    Austin/Rock 15
                    Austin/Rock 17
                    HHH/HBK/Benoit
                    HHH/Batista
                    Edge/Taker
                    HBK/Taker 2

                    Worst, I'd have to say the HHH/Orton match because of what expectations there are in this era of Wrestlemania. This match was the drizzling shits.

                      I went to WM 25. Saw Trips-Orton live. It was a bad match. The crowd up to that point was solid. I guess you could argue we got burned out by the Taker-HBK and the threeway Cena-Edge-Show "co-main event". But really, it was just a bad main event. The fans in the upper levels started doing The Wave to entertain themselves partway through the main event. That's not a good fucking sign.

                        Sucks for Cena. Observer posted a link to a story, he filed for divorce. His wife was a high school sweetheart but they just married in 2009 and she did sign a prenup. She has the same attorney Linda Hogan used to fleece Hogan.

                            Linda Hogan got 70% of the assets.

                            Cena had a pre-nup, but they were together for like 12 years before they got married and she supported him for a period while he got established. He gonna get fleeced here.

                              Cena's divorce outcome depends on how cool he and his wife are.

                              Rock divorced Dany a few years ago, and was not fleeced. They are still cool, very much friends, she is still apart of his family by all accounts...she was set up as the head of a great company during their marriage and as a result, Rock was fleeced and won't be fleeced in the future.

                              So, it comes down to if Cena and his girl are cool.
