A clear sign the writers had NO IDEA what to do with this match.

Ryback sucked tonight, I'll never give Cena shit about his in ring abilities after that shit.

[JayDizzle]

I think they managed to keep Ryback's momentum despite a loss. Bravo WWE

The people who paid to see Punk lose have GOT to be PISSED.

I love it.

If I could deduct anything, it'd be that the match only really got that special kind of violent (that only HIAC matches are) when Ryback started fucking up in the early goings and after the pin.

Punk's gotta get stitches now for that new scar he's got on his back but that's about it.

Still, Punk's your champ and everybody wins... aside from the dead ref.

[LiquidLarry2GhostWF]

Crowd shit all over that match at every point.

Obvious funneling of chants is obvious.

[JimLeavy59]

I really did want to give Ryback a chance tonight but damn he was doing the same moves over and over.

What happened

What happened

Ryback got fed.

 

His first "official" loss

[EmpireWF]

Figured, how'd they do it.

[krulmichael]

at that ending. That shit at the top of the cell at the end could have been horrible though had it not held that weight.

[Guest]

Figured, how'd they do it.

Paid off ref angle, low blow on Ryback when Punk was up for the finisher, and then a fast count on a rollup.

Paid off ref angle, low blow on Ryback when Punk was up for the finisher, and then a fast count on a rollup.

That Ref's lowblow had to have more force than Big Show's knockout punch because Ryback was eating some shots all night.

Took some stairs, Punk kicking his ass a little, ate a turnbuckle...

Then his tiny, steroid-raisined nuts got obliterated by this skinny nobody's arm.

Punk got some major help by the Fist of the goddamn North Star.

[EmpireWF]

Sounds reasonable, shitty for the HIAC but anything was going to be.

At least it was someone fresh in a main event...even if it was an injury which forced their hand.

[SuperKevin]

Any predictions for the Survivor Series teams?

[krulmichael]

Also...aren't both main events usually in the HIAC? I was expecting the Sheamus/Show bout to take place in the cell as well. In the end it probably was beneficial that it wasn't because the match was actually pretty good. Outside of the main event, the PPV wasn't bad really.
