I'm beginning to think that WWE are already failing to capitalise on the momentum of CM Punk. He done that brilliant shoot promo before Money In The Bank, which turned alot of heads and got people wondering what was gonna happen next. Since then, technically, nothing of much significance has really occured. Maybe they don't know themselves what they should do as most of the talent and writers from the famous "Attitude era" have now moved on, and the "entertainment" writers thats left don't know how to emulate it.

Despite all of this I still believe CM Punk is the best character in professional wrestling today. As for his storyline/feud with Cena, am I the only one who's drawing comparisons from Cena's feud with Edge in 2006 when Edge won his first WWE Championship which led into the "Rated R Superstar era." My point is, is it a definitve turning point in CM Punk's career right now? Absolutely. The Punk era? Maybe. As for groundbreaking television and the best thing in years? Probably. But will it ever be held in the same regard as anything from the "Attitude era" ? Don't think so. Simply because the "Attitude era" was a collective effort and despite how cool it sounds on TV in a promo, or certainly from a long-term creative standpoint, one man cannot "make wrestling fun again."

Just my two cents.
