"Tonight, John Cena is in enemy territory". Just for a change eh?

Odd that the other MITB match wasn't included - much better and replete with Sheamus annihilating Sin Cara.

Yes the included match was action-crammed, but sloppy.

Punk - Cena sure "holds up", as they say. I think it was the absolute best match the latter was capable of having from a pure in-ring perspective (and if that sounds like a back-handed compliment, that's because it is ) . He at least tried to mix it up a bit this time too - although the less said about that gutwrench powerbomb the better! Punk was Punk - saying more with one five-second facial expression than many do with five years of promos, and of course kicking serious rump workrate-wise. Expertly booked and built too. Plus you get Vinny yelling "cut that music". Blinding.

Just the one Summerslam 2011 match on here (so I'll have to wait to catch up on Cena - Punk II ), and that's Christian - Orton. Already plenty of pretty good TV matches between them taken in earlier in the set(not counting a ton of other PPV ones throughout the year!), let's see if there's anything left in the tank here.

Fine stuff and certainly A-Level PPV worthy, although probably not the ****+ a lot of reviews seem to have it as. I'll pick up on this DVD tomorrow, I'm babyface-Orton-ed out at the moment

Looks like Vince is turning heel

So Payback (although the card itself looks decent, the show is obviously a new B-level one that might not even be around next year) is on PPV over here, but MITB - which is basically the Fifth Major these days - is on Sky Sports. Good work Rupe

Looks like Vince is turning heel

He was furious at the drop in ratings two weeks ago. So of course, what we need to turn that around is Vince As Heel Authority Figure Part 23842308259...

I guess it was to do with the time constraints, the other match was a lot longer. Or they just didn't want to show Bryan winning something.

Agreed on the thoughts of the Punk - Cena match.
