My idea of what will happen.

R-Truth wins MITB. Punk wins and is about to leave with the belt, Truth cashes in and becomes an interim champion until Summerslam when Triple H wins the belt.

Punk is gone and so is Cena. (Cena is gone to protect the main event at Wrestlemania, come summerslam the Rock comes back and asks where Cena is because he's back.....huge promo about it to keep the hype up).

Punk goes on twitter and teases going to TNA, I wouldnt be surprised if he enters in negotiation just to get the dirt sheets buzzing.

Cena and Punk both return at the Royal Rumble entering at 29(39)/30(40) Punk wins and becomes champion, Cena beats him at the next PPV setting up The Rock v Cena for the title. Then Punk envokes his rematch clause making it a triple threat match, The Rock v Cena v CM Punk is set up.

What date is it on Stu? It's so annoying when you've got a stream and it cuts off to something else.

Won't Cena need a rest at some point? He could be injured before WrestleMania you never know despite how careful they might be to avoid it.

You should send your CV to the writing team

[Iceman]

LOL I like my own little theories on what should have happened and what shouldnt, i would have had the past ten years done so differently.... my main angle would have been Kane staying with the mask becoming a proper champion..... no Hogan, No Big Show as champ, no mysterio.....

john cena just said **** in his tweet

TNA UK TV RATINGS – WEEK ENDING 3rd July 2011

IMPACT Wrestling on Challenge
The UK TV Ratings are in for the week ending 3rd July 2011 and it’s further good news for TNA Wrestling on Challenge!
According to the Broadcasters Audience Research Board – IMPACT Wrestling scored a huge 236,000 viewers, for the Tuesday 28th June “BISCHOFF’S CRIMSON MASK” episode headlined by a Sting vs. Abyss main event.

Sting vs. Abyss: The most watched TNA IMPACT Wrestling Main Event ever broadcast on UK Television.
This is a new all time high viewership record for TNA IMPACT Wrestling on UK television. In fact the show scored more viewers than WWE’s RAW and Smackdown shows could garner – COMBINED!
What’s more is that the saturday night replay of the same score also scored an all-time high rating for a replay with 126,000 viewers tuning in.
TNA Xplosion, featuring a Magnus vs. Orlando Jordan “Xplosion Championship Challenge” match, ranked outside the top 10 highest rated programs on Challenge TV and thus i’m unable to confirm the exact viewing figures for the episode.
However the lowest ranked of the top 10, Play Your Cards Right, drew 114,000 viewers, meaning TNA Xplosion falls somewhere below that figure.
Here is the Top 10 ranked programs on Challenge for the week:

This is good news

It's not really whats happening, you just dont listen when we explain this to you.

[michael21]

This week impact is a pay-per-view style show its called mid summer nightmare cant wait till Tuseday to see it

I now wwe is on late bla bla bla but the point is TNA is getting record viewership in the uk in your face MR mac

[Iceman]

But its not, its not a true reflection of ratings, thats what we're trying to point out. Im not trying to argue with you but the way you post that makes it sound as if WWE are flagging behind, when infact they have more viewers.

[Iceman]

We noted yesterday here on the website that Colt Cabana told Alex Marvez that he will be attending this Sunday's Money in the Bank pay-per-view event, which emanates from Rosemont, Illinois.

"I am more interested as a fan to see what happens," Cabana said. "There is so much buzz around this. Punk has caused a stir that hasn't happened in wrestling in a long time. I'm excited to see what goes down and, most importantly, watching my best friend in his last WWE match."

Cabana, who performed for WWE in 2008 and 2009, also spoke about his interest level in returning to the organization.

"I love where my career and life is at," said Cabana. "Don't get me wrong: I'd love to be with WWE and working again with CM Punk. That would be amazing.

"But I've also seen so many guys get fired from WWE and then sit around waiting to get a call to come back that usually doesn't come. Their value drops until they have no following. I can't sit and wait. All the different projects I have make me creatively and monetarily happy."

Cabana remains hopeful that Punk's tirades could benefit both his friend and spark WWE to reassess its method of operation.

"If the buy rate for this show is high, it basically says CM Punk was responsible singlehandedly for making this kind of money," Cabana said. "And it will be because of the stuff he said, that people want to see something different and have gotten on the bandwagon. If WWE realizes that maybe it is time for a change, the potential for that is there.

"Yes, inevitably this will all put a lot of money in McMahon's pocket. But it also puts a lot of power into the hands of CM Punk."

Just give the guy the wwe title.
