Flyer Passed Out The Night CM Punk Walked Out Adds To Growing Theory That It May Be An Elaborate Work
Raj Giri from wrestlinginc.com shares the following which has added to the growing theory among many who insist CM Punk’s walking out on the WWE is all part of some well planned work….
WrestlingINC.com reader Dan Baker passed along this flyer that was being handed out after last Monday’s RAW. This was before Punk’s departure was made public, and the flyers were obviously printed ahead of time, and it’s not like they would stop the flyers from being handed out. It wasn’t until the following day that WWE started to remove Punk from advertising. Still, it’s kinda ironic in hindsight.
Trevor’s Perspective: Wrestling Fans, Let’s Get Ready For Our Superbowl
As America gets ready to celebrate what might as well be considered a national holiday (Superbowl Sunday) I thought it was important to remind us all just how important Wrestlemania is to professional wrestling just as the Superbowl is important to football fans.
Wrestlemania at least for me has always brought the same feeling and sense of excitement as the Superbowl does to fans of football. The only thing that could make Wrestlemania even better would be if wrestlers from multiple promotions were to face each other much like football teams. That’s just wishful thinking on my part of course. In reality World Wrestling Entertainment dominates the industry and as of right now there are no promotions even on the same level as the well-oiled machine that is the WWE. However even though Wrestlemania features stars from one single promotion the event itself bursts with the bells and whistles right up there with “the big game”.
In all honesty, I have grown increasingly frustrated with what seams to be on lack of mainstream coverage of mania over the years compared to it’s earlier days (statistically speaking). The whole concept of Wrestlemania in the first place was to create that Superbowl feeling that brings football fans together every year. Wrestling fans are just as devoted as those of any professional sport. The truth is we DESERVE to have our own Superbowl.
I’m hoping that the fact that this year marks the 30th anniversary of Wrestlemania has me hoping for some big surprises and shockers especially to increase the mainstream media’s interest in the WWE’s biggest event of the year or in pro wrestling for that matter.This year with the launch of the WWE Network fans have the chance to watch Wrestlemania on any platform they choose at no additional charges to your already subscription to he WWE network.
Enjoy Superbowl Sunday and don’t forget Wrestlemania Sunday is on April 6th!
