Superstar Sleeze Posted December 26, 2017 Report Share Posted December 26, 2017 World Heavyweight Champion CM Punk vs Undertaker - Breaking Point 2009 CM Punk had some serious heel heat up in Montreal. This main evented over Cena/Orton. Punk was the first superstar to break into the main event scene since Edge in 2006. His 2009-2010 run as the Straight Edge Savior was his best work in WWE. He is more famous for the Pipebomb stuff and all that, but this stuff was just heel gold. I like most of the Internet thought CM Punk was a deadman walking into this match. Instead they went the Montreal Screwjob route. Teddy tells Taker after Punk tapped to Hells Gate that Hells Gate was still banned and restarts the match. Punk grabs the Anaconda Vice before even has it all the way locked into Scott Armstrong calls for the bell because we are in Montreal after all. The body of the match was really strong. I thought Punk stooged and bumped for Taker great. Stooging is not a word I get to use a lot in modern reviews so it was nice to see Punk with traditional heel stooging here. I thought Punk was a great heel throughout the match. Punk strategy was consistent relentlessly attack the head. What I loved was Undertaker's response which was to fight through this offense and kick Punk's ass. This was an amazing ass whupping by Undertaker. Really enjoyable. Taker fed Punk some spots so that Punk could get his licks in like crotching himself on the barricade. Punk using his knees, elbows and a chairs to attack the head of Taker. Taker was wicked motivated and looked great. The strike exchange came off awesome because both were wicked over and over as a face and a true heel. I really dug the body of the match even if the finish left a sour taste in my mouth. *** Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
