Rock isn't in the rumble match. He's challenging whoever is WWE Champion. Well things change so they need to do SOMETHING I mean other than Rock vs. Cena, the only other Rumble match you could do would probably be Rock vs. Miz and that's not gonna draw as well as Punk would have and it means giving Ryback the shaft cena beats dolph for the mitb cashes it in on rock at royal rumble and rock wants rematch at wrestlemania

Really hoping it's a work. I'm thinking it might be since Punk used his Twitter about an hour ago.
If not make Cena vs Ziggler for the belt.

Ugh I hope Ryback isn't going to be champ Vacate the title, put Ryback in the Cena/Ziggler match and replace the MITB briefcase with the title.

He seemed legit pissed off to me all last night. I guess this explains it.

The ONLY way I can see them getting out of this if Punk's out for months would be to have Cena beat Ziggler for the briefcase, have Rock win the Royal Rumble and then challenge Cena for the belt. So what would happen with Rock's already announced title match at the Rumble? That's already been set. It would then be Cena/Rock at the Rumble for the belt, but if Punk is truly injured and needs the belt removed, that'd mean Ryback is taking it at TLC setting up Ryback/Rock, or they have Ziggler cash in NOW and have Ziggler/Cena's ladder match at TLC be for the belt, maybe throw Ryback into the match as well and remove Punk from the card. There was no rule set that Ziggler can't cash in his MITB before he has to put it on the line at TLC, there could be a storyline there.

Didn't he take a shot to the knee when he and Cena put Ryback through the annouce table at Survivor Series? I seem to recall seeing Punk take a piece of the table to one of his knees. Yeah and he's been favoring it since and it's been reported WWE feared he'd need surgery.

For TLC, it would be very easy to shift Ryback into a six-man with Bryan & Kane vs. The Shield. Cena and Ziggler can now be for the vacant title.
We do Rock/Cena at Rumble and if Punk can go, give him Rock at Mania. Or if Punk will be gone for an extended amount of time, have Ziggler win the title and face Rock at the Rumble. Then, you continue with Rock/Cena II at Mania.
Whether it is six weeks or six months, this product is really going to suffer without Punk.

People seem to forget that Ziggler's case is SPECIFICALLY referred to as the "World Heavyweight Championship Money in the Bank Briefcase."
There's no way WWE will handwave that away for the sake of Cena winning the WWE title, that is way too insulting to my intelligence.

God, I hate this. Not only because I'd rather him not lose the title right now, but because it means he'll likely vacate the damn title. What a weak way to go out.

Problem lazily solved.

Hope it's nothing too serious. Certainly not opposed to Punk losing the title, but rather it not be by injury. No one wants to see these guys maimed or anything.

Maybe it is not that bad. Maybe they can add Kane and Bryan and Miz to the match and have Punk still work the match in a very limited capacity and have him still champ until Rumble. That should be enough time(if its not too bad of and injury) to heal up and drop the title to The Rock. f***! tho. He went for a long long time without injury and now that we are closing in on one of the biggest match of his career this happens. I blame HHH,Ryback and The Miz.

It's been confusing for a lot of people, me clearly included, because Ziggler has been on Raw so much and now a Raw guy is challenging Smackdown guy for the Smackdown brand's title. Damn.

There's nothing to forget, honestly. WWE waives stipulations and does whatever is convenient for them all the time. They would explain it away in one promo. MITB is there in case of emergency for them. Wouldn't be the first time.

If he has to give up the title, I think they need to have a heel lose to The Rock and there is one heel that isn't doing anything right now:
