It got lost in the sauce from an eventful and awesome Raw Monday, but CM Punk and Mark Henry had an outstanding match in my view. Great little man vs. big man chemistry, with Punk having a different offensive attack than most little guys with all the big strikes. I loved how Punk kept trying to use aerial moves and Henry would just swat him away. It reminded me of Vader vs. HBK back in 96, complete with the count out finish which was the perfect way to end the match.
Anyone else really enjoy this match?

That tells me that Henry is about to get a feud with Punk for the title. The two have pretty decent chemistry from the looks of things.

They have great chemistry together which completely surprised me. Their styles matched and just imagine them on the mic together. Punk's mic skills are amazing but Henry's not bad either when he's doing the "big tough man in your face" thing. He's just straight hilarious at times. I'd like to see them feud.

The "YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOA~~~~~~~YES!" thing worked very well in this match.

I heard it was gonna be Lord Tensai getting the title feud next. I'd rather see Henry, though I would like to see Henry win the belt eventually so maybe he could finally be the one to take it from Punk after Johnny runs him through the meat grinder for a few months. Perhaps he could be the guy that drops it to Lesnar or Rock.

It's a classic "monster" feud where Punk can play the underdog. He can't lift Henry for the GTS. He can't put the Anaconda Vise on arms that can lift cars off the ground. How can Punk possibly win if he can't use his finishers? HOW? ? Add in Punk's mic work, Henry's in-ring rantings, you've got a solid feud cooking.

I was just saying that Henry seems to be on his way there and Monday night was just a preview of sorts.

I thought it was just going to be a filler match, but I was hooked a minute in. I want more of this. I want Punk trying to figure out ways to keep Henry down as Henry swats away all his stuff. Seriously, it could be an awesome feud.

I really love that they're making Punk more vulnerable lately. It's what was missing from his babyface character for a while, though they needed to have him dominate to wash away all the jobbing he did in the 2 years prior.

It was a good match, and made Mark look like a monster again.

I honestly had no idea who would win Jericho/Punk, which was why I was so into it, and felt like he looked like a million bucks coming out of it. You believe he CAN lose, but he comes out on top because he's "the best wrestler in the world." It's simple, but it works.

I remember not thinking much of their match on ECW match in 2009 with Punk as the heel and Mark as the face, it obviously worked much better with the roles reversed. Great match.

Loved everything about it. Which is saying something for a WWE Title match on TV.
