Within the various wrestling forums I visit I see a large and healthy debate about if Punk will retain or The rock will win and that in itself is why I consider Punk a great champion with good booking.
Allow me to elaborate. Throughout punks entire championship reign nearly every ppv it was thought "well the awesome run ends tonight, But then he would win and surprise everyone as the days piled on.
No one thought he would make it to 100 days
No one thought he would make it to 200 days
No one thought he would make it to a full year
No one thought he would topple Cena's record.
He did and in that he makes me personally want to buy the next ppv just so see if the sly bastard can escape once more.
This was not the case during cena's reign (I'm not trying to turn this into a cena hate thread btw), The booking made is vapidly transparent he was going to win, Which is where the term "spoiler cena wins" came from, You knew he wasn't losing nor would it even look like he was close to losing.
It's rare that I see so much conversation over the champion and what the outcome of an important match is, this is the mark of good booking.
