We'll have to wait and see, but if Punk is back next week then we know its a work.

Colt Cabana is now trending on twitter. BTW, anyone have any clue why Punk was wearing an Austin shirt? What da hale? They're putting over that Punk "Doesn't give a f***" I can't believe people think this is possibly a legit shoot

Wow. Just wow. That promo was the greatest 'worked shoot' in the history of that term.

Who cares if it was a worked shoot. It was fantastic. I will definitely tune in next week. Most interested I have been since Nexus debut.

RAW was pretty boring outside of the opening and DDP segment, but the Tornado Tag and very much more so Punk's "shoot" was f***ing AHmazing!

I give WWE credit. That was honestly a stunning end to the show. It also shows that they are fully aware of the criticism that is often aimed at them.

I think it was like Russo's promo at BATB 2000. It started as a worked shoot, but then went into a real shoot.
Eh, maybe not, but it was damn awesome.

They did their homework on that promo. I am betting that was 99% Punk, but I am sure he ran it by them and of course they had to have the cut off point ready.

They're putting over that Punk "Doesn't give a f***" I can't believe people think this is possibly a legit shoot It was that damn good. And WWE hasn't had a worked shoot since the one Joey Styles cut years ago I think. They certainly haven't had one in the PG era. It's not like Punk said anything that could hurt WWE, but I can see how people could think it was a legit shoot. Personally, I think they told him to just go out there and say whatever he wants but not to go too far. WWE knows what they want out of this angle. It's a shame that we couldn't get such an awesome character before he decided to leave though .

I like this edgy approach WWE has taken this year.

Maybe they keep Punk off TV now until the PPV and build the speculation that he won't be fighting Cena and possibly was fired.

For him to rant that long and not f*** up....

The Austin shirt with their mini feud was a nice touch. just imagine if wore a Zack Ryder shirt pointed at the shirt and asked WHY THE HELL ISN'T THIS MAN ON TV

I hope they have Punk do that every week. Screw Cena out of a win and then "shoot" until WWE cuts him off.
