CM Punk's status

Some have said that CM Punk's loss of his World Heavyweight Title at Hell In a Cell may make him less noticed. It has been a less prominent role that CM Punk has taken. But WWE is planning on using Punk to help out R-Truth by helping him get to a higher level, preferably a main event level.

   I just wish they'd change R-Truth's look and character up a little. His braids are weak and his "rap" is lame. It's the same crap he's been doing since his 1st run in the WWE years ago. In the ring though I think he's good enough. I hope they don't bury Punk

   Punk is not dead! Probably he will be in tag team event from now on.

   They need to get R-Truth up to main event status. Using Punk is a good way to do it.

   R-Truth? I guess they need someone so incredibly untalented at the main event that Orton and Cena are almost acceptable by comparison, because Ron Killings is absolute and utter GARBAGE in the ring, and his gimmick (which has been the same since he was K-Kwik and got nowhere with it) is even worse. What an insult to CM Punk to have to boost HIM of all people.

    How is he utter garbage in the ring? I admit his gimmick is crap but in the ring he is probably one of the most entertaining...

    Shut the heck up October Raven, I agree the gimmick is getting old but he one of the most entertaining wrestlers on Smackdown. They need to bring Truth, Morrison, Punk, Dolph and Matt up in my opinion to get rid of the older wrestlers who get title shots everyday.

    Oh give me a break. He does NOTHING unique or special. All he does is kicks, sloppy kicks at that, and spins after them. That's not anything to give a crap about, heck, even Amazing Red could do that. The reason why other wrestlers don't do it is because it looks stupid. WHY is he spinning? Why waste all that energy for NOTHING? If he spun BEFORE the kick, at least that makes sense as it's more momentum.
    
    At least when he was K-Kwik he didn't do any of that. Which is confusing, because this means he's become WORSE over time, not better. Then again he was with Konnan and Road Dogg, their suckiness is bound to rub off...

    Wuz up!? Wuz up!? Wuz up!? Definitely not my expectations for R Truth. I'm just waiting for the one day he does the splits and can't get back up. There are many other talents that deserve a chance to run at the top. Quite honestly I'd rather Hornswoggle become champ than this guy. That, R Truth, is whats up.

    I believe the fact Punk is heel is a real demoralizer to WWE because they put someone with good values as a villian. Sure, he belives his way is the only way, but that gimmick isn't enough to turn Punk heel. Whether you people like his gimmick or not, R-Truth is the future of this company. But honestly, he has more to go than other superstars such as MVP and Morrison and honestly, Swagger is more deserving than R-Truth right now. R-TRuth may need more time before he is even in the singlesn championship picture. Oh, did I forget the Awesome one? The MIZ? Or how about Rhodes or DiBiase? Now that I think about it, those three are evn more deserving. Do you want to know why? They got their roots in tag teams and earned gold there. Tag team wrestling is the new Velocity or Heat: it develops superstars into anywhere from United States to Unified World Champions! And R-Truth should have to find a teammate and sit on it for awhile, then maybe in a year or two, he'll be up there.

    It'll take more than a year to undo what he 'learned' from Konnan and Road Rogg. If he's ever going to be good enough to be a main eventer, it'll be right at the end of his bump card.
    
    He's not a kid fresh from wrestling school, his potential to learn has already came and went.
