NEWZ or Truth? Cena's Next feud will be against...

[Cronant]

CM Punk.

According to a prominent member of the WWE staff, Cena is a big fan of Punk's, and thought WWE could have gotten a lot more out of Punk during his run with Randy Orton.

With Punk reportedly in a contract dispute with WWE (his contract expires at the end of the Summer, and he has not elected to sign a new agreement), Cena went to WWE Chairman Vince McMahon with a similar pitch to how Cena worked Chris Jericho's final program when Jericho first took a leave of absence from WWE.

While WWE hopes Punk will eventually stay with the company, it looks like his exit will come at the hands of John Cena should he decide to leave.

Of course, with Punk being in a feud with "The Champ," WWE has the option to offer Punk a title run in order to sweeten the offer for him to stay.

"This is going to be interesting to watch," another key WWE insider told us this evening, "Punk is very smart, and Cena understands WWE politics better than anyone other than HHH and Undertaker. A feud between the two of them may be the smartest thing WWE can do to get Punk to stay!"

WrestleZone is the first to report the impending Punk vs Cena feud, and will keep you up-to-date on this breaking story as it develops.

Keep in mind this was "reported" before RAW. Although no clear answer as to who Cena's facing was given, they seem to be leaning towards Truth.

But that also could just lead to Truth getting screwed out of the title match to further his grief. Or maybe a 4-way so everyone's right?

Anyone believe this?

"WrestleZone is the first to report the impending Punk vs Cena feud, and will keep you up-to-date on this breaking story as it develops."

Ah good old WrestleZone, they "EXCLUSIVELY" reported that Randy Orton was going to a main focus point on Smackdown. Where would we be without their insider knowledge!?



..So basically no, I take anything they say as either complete bullshit or something of Captain Obvious proportions.

That sounds so newzy. But given the main event we got on RAW, it's plausible. It was like Truth vs. Rey and Punk vs. Cena.

At this point, I don't mind either of them to step up to Cena. I'm sure I'll be entertained.

[Allie Kitsune]

Well, it's certainly not Truth who's next. And that's a damn shame.

Punk, sir, is a Rooster from Brewster. (It's just not the same, is it?)

[Cronant]

If Cena really is in Punk's corner trying to get him to stay and in a WWE title feud, then I think he's earned his lifetime IWC pass. Especially when you add in the Zack Ryder stuff.

You'll have no choice but to like him dammit!

[FailedGimmick]

Ideally, the match at Capitol Punishment would be a fatal four way with the people in the tag match last night.

[#RUDO Coco Del Rio]

Cena really is a likeable guy. But the way they handle him is so bad, we tend to just use him as a scapegoat.

[Cronant]

It would be hilarious for them to change the name of Fatal 4-Way and still give us Fatal 4-Ways for both titles.

Because Henry and Sheamus could very well add themselves to a Smackdown title match as well.

[FailedGimmick]

Well, to be fair, Fatal Four Way was a horrible name for a PPV. The matches were great, and I really liked how they build up the numbers were against the Champion.

[nonrev]

With Otungacutty winning the belts, I'm hoping Punk goes onto to feud with Kofi by costing him his title to Mason Ryan. Then after the Kofi feud is done (they used to be best buds as tag champs so there is a history), Punk can move onto Cena to solidify the New Nexus control over Raw, which of course leads to Cena destroying Punk just as his contract expires. Truth should feud with Cena in the meantime.

Fatal 4 Way CAPITOL PUNISHMENT!

Feat. Orton vs Christian vs Sheamus vs Mark Henry

and Cena vs Mysterio vs Punk vs R-Truth

[rrm15]

Capitol Punishment should be all scramble matches.

Cena/Rey/Punk/Truth/....um....Swagger?

Orton/Christian/Henry/Sheamus/Cody Rhodes

according to Wrestling Observer, it's meant to be Cena and DelRio building to Summerslam... but who know?

Del Rio's first title win should be dethroning cena at Royal Rumble

[EzioAuditoreDaFirenze]

I wouldn't mind Cena vs Punk. Those two put on great matches but I just wanna see Truth vs Cena first. At least for a month or so.

[BigWill]

I wouldn't mind Cena feuding with Punk, Truth, or Del Rio. All can put on good matches. Hell, I wouldn't even mind if Cena eventually feuds with Swagger. A lot of good potential feuds for Cena imo.

Didn't Punk dispel the contract dispute rumors?

No. All he's said is something like "Heard any good rumors lately".

[SAJ Forth]

Cena will resolve to somehow shove Punk up Punk's own Nexus. Though I hope they play up Cena as Hogan and Punk as Savage.
