After the match Rollins is assaulted by a “fan” These people who do this now are not fans and neither was this person. I’m not going to go into what caused him to attack Rollins, but I’m sure he wasn’t playing with all 52 cards. I’d love to see how this would have been handled by the wrestlers of the 70s and 80s. I know Jim Cornette talks about the riots they would cause in the days, but the police were there and the boys would have handled things that would have never made the news. As far as recently goes, I could only guess what a man like New Jack would have done. RIP

CM Punk & MJF start things off with one of the most entertaining promos I’ve heard recently. You’ll never get this on other shows and I’d love to hear it though. MJF calls Punk PG Punk and Punky Brewster. Saying that he’s always #2 behind him, the you can’t see me man and the king of kings. As PG Punk he might as well preach hustle, loyalty and respect. Punk stats MJF isn’t revolutionary, and he’s just a less famous Miz. The crowd popped huge for that. He also states that MJF will never be the man around here because there isn’t enough time for Tony Khan to have a daughter for him to marry (a shot at HHH). This was amazing, I’d suggest looking it up on youtube while you can)
