Just had to take a moment to congratulate Punk for the awesome Macho Man tribute. BTW, a dumbass fan on twitter tweeted that Punk was soo gay for wearing pink and yellow. Cena took the time to correct him and say it was a tribute to Macho Man and it was awesome.
Seriously surprised there wasn't more love for Macho after all those years. Kinda hoped to see Vince out there saying a few words. It would have been equally effective to see Vince come out and somberly say "Ohhhhhh yeeeeeaaahhh."

I find the idea of Cena telling someone off for making a gay slur, hilarious.
But yes, it was a nice tribute indeed.

After not being allowed to wear the boot tassels at the PPV, I was surprised they allowed the trunks and boots. But MUCH appreciated from Punk  |

Punk is such a fanboy! It's very admirable. ;D

I'm no fan of Cena, but +1 for him against that troll.

It was a good tribute but I would have prefered if it was a babyface doing it. Although it worked with Punk because of the similar designed trunks I guess.

For starters, I wondered why Punk wore pink but then I took a closer look and his trunks looked so similar to Savage's old trunks, I thought "Wow." At that point, I figured he was paying tribute. I thought that was cool.

Yeah, I have yet to see a face acknowledge him in a similar manner. I've seen two heels pay their respects. (Punk for one and Barrett attempted a flying elbow in his match against Zeke.) |

I'm such a mark, been thinking about it all night and am now gonna go to bed and hopefully dream of how awesome it was. CM Macho Man Punk vs. Black Machismo is as good as it gets down here on earth. Up in that Madison Square Garden in the sky Randy Savage is fixing to drop the elbow on Abe Lincoln (who is also a wrestler I would mark out for)

I liked it. Punk's actual attire has similarities to the 1980s Macho Man attire, so it fit for CM Punk to pay tribute to him with that attire.

Nexus needs to become a Macho Man themed stable. Punk being 1980s Savage.avi McGillicutty the new Electric Cowboy. David Otunga 'Madness' WCW Macho Man. and Mason Ryan 1999 mid-life crisis Randy Savage. Dig it! Ooooh, yeahhhh!!!

I had no idea until the actual match. When he came out at the start I just figured the white on yellow kickpads were a new look.
I saw the flash of pink trunks in his entrance and MARKED THE f*** OUT.

At first I thought he'd lost his gear and had to borrow ADR's kneepads lol

Those three-star trunks always looked cool on Macho.
