The buzz from this promo is everywhere. Could this get the general public back into wrestling?

Hell I've never seen you post in a wrestling thread before, but Punk's promo made you decide to come in here and "school us kids."
In fact the last time I've seen as many new SNs post in this thread was when The Rock "came back" to the WWE.
Hombre I think I'm going to bite the bullet and order MITB. First time in years I've ordered a WWE PPV beside one of the Big 3.
I hope I don't regret it.
I'm not ordering MITB. Don't plan on it. PPV's are too much for just one good match.

no one, no where is "buzzing" about this. i just happened to see it flipping channels.
i watched EVERY televised WWF and WCW event from like 92-02.
hell in the 7th grade (1997-9
i almost got expelled from the LAUSD for performing a very very veryyyyyyyyyyyyy terrible perfect-plex on this skinny kid the day after curt henning turned heel on the Wolfpac and went back to the black and white. broke his shoulder and collar bone.youre lying if you think the "WWE" is good.
i mean where are the characters?
cats just out there wrestling as normal people with real names and lives.
the golddust-val venus feud is better than this.

Please, I've watched more episodes of WCW Worldwide than you probably did of Nitro. Outta here with that.
"What a mark."

Oh and if all this enormous build up, all of this enormous hype, ends in John Cena making Punk tap in the middle of the ring with the STF after an Attitude Adjustment and the show goes off the air...... Don't even act like this is NOT a remote possibility either.
There's many things that have made me wanna stop watch the WWE all together, especially since 04/05, but the thought of that real possibility is one
of those last straw things. Like "really? again?"

I think there are a lot of people coming in who grew up watching the Attitude-era, but have no idea about the way the internet changed the way a lot of people watch/respond to wrestling, thus the obvious disconnect.
That Punk promo was legendary. I only tuned in because of the buzz that twitter had going on. I think it takes a special kind of mic-worker to shoot (or workedshoot) on a subject for that long. Amazing.

hence the reason why NO ONE TALKS ABOUT WRESTING ANY MORE.
idk how old u cats are, but wrestling used to be a big deal to practically everyone.
this is when no limit hit the wcw and all kinds of stars were showin the the wwf crowds or participated in the shows.
there used to be people everyone could root for.
youre a little guy? well we got the lightweight championship or the IC championship
are there even tag team belts anymore?
remember when there was a legit hardcore belt that you could get pinned anywhere for?
now, the wwe is all sex, super buffed dudes, and real life scenarios.
im not interested in seeing a man put his true feelings on tv for the world to hear.
no one is. hence why wrestling is practically dead in the eyes of the sports world.
like how are bragging about how good you are when all the results are pre decided? and everyone already knows that fact?
I saw Ric Flair wrestle Sting (back when he was colorful) for the WCW championship.
cm punk couldnt tie a bootlace compared to those guys.
they were legit actors and athletes with showmanship and a hell of a way with words.
made you wanna go buy their crap and rep it hard.
im bout to look for my old wwf magazines and school you kids on what wrestling should be.
hell i rank Raven and Sabu's personality over CMpunk or john cena
I agree with you for the most part, but the "this isn't cool" part in regards to Punk's promo is pretty backwards, cause what Punk said and the conviction he
said it with is the same thing that Stone Cold, DX, Jeff Jarrett, Bret Hart, and most of the NWO members did. I got that same markout feeling as I did back
then, and every longtime wrestling fan --- especially ones who watched right before Attitude and during Attitude --- (besides yourself) probably feels the same
way. There's been very few markout moments for me since 2004, but I definitely appreciate them when I see the. Sure, wrestling is not at all what it used to be,
from the crowds, to the characters, the PPVs, to the actual wrestling...but when something comes up that's obvious great and intriguing, it should be appreciated.
Don't be the guy in the room that when an obviously fine bangin girl walks in, with everybody looking, you're like "I've seen better". Just appreciate obvious
greatness, cause there's definitely not a lot to go around in today's state of wrestling.
