We'll see cuz the fans hated it when Russo did this with any company not named WWE. But i do agree with you on the whole "Reality" thing. It's still the PG era to me overall cuz you can't even say your "ass" GONNA CALLLLLLLL SOMEBOOOOOOOOOOOODY!... bullshit.
I just think, for as big as a company the WWE is, there's no way this is all legit.
The fans want DB and boo their other guys, main event guys; their faces of the WWE.
That has to be on purpose.
Then Punk leaves?
No way all this shit adds up to be real. Vince would've never have let it got this far without doing it purposely for a storyline.
I could be in a state of wishful thinking, but I just don't think this shit is adding up because we know how Vince is.
Trust and believe, if he didn't want DB reactions, he would've buried him a long time ago.

i still think its real and maybe they will try to make it look like a work in the middle
but if i see that this was a work from the start, i will have a whole new respect for vince and staff or creative, because...well its kinda creative.

The only thing I'm looking for is "we wish CM Punk the best in all his future endeavors" until then it's either he on vacation or we being worked.
As far as the "reality era"..,ehh I dislike the term but I don't mind WWE using social media to work fans. As long as it doesn't create constant confusion like those out of control aforementioned Russo stories.

LMAO no matter how much you want it to be not everything is a work. Creative really is not sharp enough. The CM Punk thing is very real and has been slowly bubbling for months now if you've been paying attention to Meltzer's backstage reports for the past few months.
Now if they come to an agreement sure I see them working it into kayfabe. Same way they worked the Sunday controversy into kayfabe with the Raw rewrites. But that's just damage control for the WWE to seem more genius and in control then they actually are. It doesn't mean none of it wasn't actually genuine.

I think this is pretty similar to when Punk threatened to leave with the title after he won it at MITB.
He was wanting to leave before then, dropped his big promo and shook up shit.
I think that angle might be taking place right now.
Whether or not they're trying to save face doesn't matter, because I don't see the WWE really falling apart like that right now.
Two of Vince's guys that he currently likes Punk and Bryan, whom are "hated" by HHH, were scheduled to face him at WM?
First Punk, now it's DB?
I just gotta say, it's interesting how this is all playing out.
I'll put it to you this way if these weren't monkey wrenches being thrown into their longterm plan they wouldn't have spent today as well as tomorrow having day long creative meetings right now. Seems to me like their previous road to wrestlemania plans have gone to shit and they're now restructuring the booking and improvising due to all these spontaneous events. Not necessarily a bad thing. They could actually show some effort and hopefully put out a better product now.

I get what you're saying, but I think they've had this planned but now have to rewrite everything to fit in now instead of it happening later.
Remember, word got our that this "power struggle" shit was coming, but we thought It would happen last year.
I'm thinking since the crowd is so heavily behind Bryan, they're rushing to rearrange it to fit the now.

Well, the reality of it all is, that wrestlers get tired, for their own reasons, and leave; either legit or leave of absence if they have the clout to do so upon approval.
We've seen plenty dudes leave over the years; some even at the top of their popularity and some because the fans liked them, but management didn't.
Christian left for NWA:TNA because creative wasn't doing anything with him, told him to get himself over, he did with the Captain Charisma gimmick, and they still didn't push him. He left, quietly, went to NWA:TNA, was over with their crowds, won the title, WWE lured him back with the promise of a push, which was perfect timing because Kurt Angle (who was pissed about his character's direction, and failing numerous drug tests) went to TNA, took his spot, and it was deja vu all over again with him. He left for the greener pastures of WWE, even though they haven't done a damn thing with him storyline-wise since he's been back. He's just collecting a check.
Countless others have left WWE because of character development issues, but to make it a storyline for the sake of WHAT? Storyline? The "Reality Era" is going to be real short if they do this for everyone who has an issue with either management or another wrestler. If this is a storyline, and if Punk is in on it, just as we thought he was when he dropped his first pipebomb, which was a shoot, then the company turned that into a shoot/work/storyline; then it's cheap.
For years we've seen issues in the back be brought onto the stage. Remember the Matt/Lita/Edge love triangle, real shit, turned into a storyline? Go back to Jake Roberts and his drinking issues, with Jerry Lawler exploiting it on the air by pour liquor in Jake's mouth. So on and so fourth. Wrestling has always showcased some sort of reality into their scripts. So to say this Punk issue is a storyline may be just that because he hasn't been issued his endeavors statement, and he has 6 months left on his contract, so why let him go now, when they can milk the press for more 'Mania exposure?
If he pops out of the crowd at any point during the Road to WrestleMania, it'll only be for the pop and the media coverage. It's not going to advance Punk any higher than he's already been. He's already popular and he's been the champion, so what more does he want.....to book his own character?
