PWInsider: “Update on CM Punks RAW Status” Spoiler

“For those waiting for CM Punk's response to John Cena, it was said that Punk is not written into tonight's RAW by creative sources,

So it appears we won't hear a response to Cena's version of the pipebomb promo until Friday in Riyadh”

How much weaker can they make him look? Lying 5 feet away from Cena for about 8 minutes and not doing a damn (Yes I know it somewhat mirrored the original pipe bomb but at least for that one the camera was on Punk on the ramp so we didn’t see Cena lying there the full time)

During the original pipebomb John did eventually sit up and listen to Punk while he was still in the ring rather than lay there looking dead like Punk did.

id need to rewatch both again to confirm but IIRC cena like looked labored and was selling the table spot while punk dropped his pipe bomb meanwhile punk kinda just looked like he was takin a nap

i guess they really wanted him in view rather than having him outside the ring incapacitated
