Anyone else annoyed with the result of the CM Punk vs Rey match, and also how lopsided the rivalry was? +2BQs?

Question

Exactly how many wins did Rey get in this rivalry?

This is absurd and his overrating is much worse than Cena's in my opinion because he is like 5'8 and in every single rivalry against a heel that he is in, he gets to win almost all the matches. This happened against Batista, and giants like Kane, Show, Khali and others. Rey beat Punk in elimination chamber, beat Punk at Wrestlemania, beat Punk on Smackdown, and even pinned Punk on the smackdown before this over the limit match and yet he still gets to beat Punk and shave his head, which was ridiculous. Punk's only win was at Extreme rules in which they had to make it seem like Rey is invincible with Punk needing all this outside help and distractions. It is really annoying how lopsided this rivalry was.

BQ: Do you think the reason they ended up making Rey win at Over the Limit may be because WWE doesn't have what it takes to create a developed enough storyline with Rey in SES?

I mean just look at the way they ended the last two Cena vs Batista matches. Maybe they just can't do it and are not creative enough for it.

Answer 1

I agree with you. Their rivalry thus far has been nothing but frustrating. They've had some good matches but the outcomes are now ridiculous.



Rey Mysterio is overated imo and I am shocked no one picks up on it yet everyone can hate on John Cena. Mysterio is the biggest underdog, but that doesn't mean he should constantly win even when it's really unrealistic. Like against Khali and Kane, okay it's a little bit of entertainment one time, but Rey beat them on multiple occasions which is just too unrealistic even when WWE is kayfabe it's not right.



I think you're right about how WWE is lacking in creativity. Shaving Punk's head was an easy route out of the rivalry. Adding Rey to the SES needed creativity and reason. WWE didn't have that obviously. I didn't know where they could've gone with Rey in SES but just by shaving someone's head is taking an easy and un-creative way out. Rey has definitley had the upper hand throughout this rivalry and it's shocking. CM Punk is easily the better wrestler and WWE need to start recognising talent instead of just putting over the fan favourite and underdog, because we haven't seen that before have we? I hate how all the creativity WWE has is by making the heels look terrible and as though they can't win a match cleanly or on their own. We all know Punk is one of the best actual wrestlers in WWE today, but his matches are constantly interferred with making him look poor and weak. It's about time heels dominated again and were actually made to look good every once in awhile. It's shocking to me how the heels in WWE are actually probably the better wrestlers but with how WWE do things they look so, so weak.



So I'm very annoyed with the outcome. Being a CM Punk fan I obviously wanted him to win. But just generally looking at things and not being a Punk mark I think it's stupid how Rey is constantly getting the upper hand in any rivalry he's in. Especially when he's against big guys and it's really unrealistic. I know Rey is a fan favourite, but that doesn't mean he should be handed every win and be made out to look like a wrestling God because he really ain't. I would even say that Rey is more overrated than John Cena. If the Punk/Rey rivalry had been more equal and then Rey still ended up shaving Punk's head I'd probably be okay with it. But what's more annoying is what you said, just the fact it was so one sided and the whole rivalry lost Punk credibility as the best heel on SD and it's so stupid. Rey basically walked over Punk for a few months, yet Punk imo is more valuable to WWE than Rey. In the sense that he's better in ring and much more entertaining.



BQ: Yeah, I basically answered this beforehand. I do agree with this statement. I couldn't see where WWE were going with the fued had Punk won and forced Rey to join the SES. It needed reason and creativity to make something entertaining. WWE couldn't do it and that's why they took as easy way out and just had Rey shave Punk's head. Shaving someone's head isn't creativity and everyone will be over it come SD. But Rey in the SES could have something brilliant had they used creativity which they're suppose to have. I just hope the shaving of Punk's head does not end the SES. Because for weeks Punk claimed that his hair was the sign of his purity as leader. Now he's lost the hair is he not a pure leader? SES has been the best stable we've seen for a very, very long time, and it can get even better.



BQ2: I will answer.

Answer 2

Yeah it was a great match. It had a great balance between the wrestlers and there were many points where you would think that Rey or Punk would win. it was an even match, both wrestlers fought and one did not get owned until the end of the match. Rey's nose did get hurt after the GTS, so there was some realism in the match.

Answer 3

I am very annoyed and frustrated with the outcome of the match-up at Over the Limit involving Rey Mysterio and Cm Punk. As I used to like Rey Mysterio, but his winning streak(s) have gone "insane" (if you know what I mean.) I am very frustrated about the outcome of what happened, Rey Mysterio is definitely a good example of overrated, as I was really hoping to see what would/could of happened if Rey Mysterio lost the match to Cm Punk and joined the Straight Edge Society. It also seems as if Cm Punk has been losing almost every other match involving Rey Mysterio, as I will not disagree with the fact that he is a good athletic professional wrestler for his size, I just like to see something we never really tend to see often and that "something" we never see too often is something known as "change"... I do indeed know what the WWE are trying to do with Rey Mysterio as of now, the WWE are trying their hardest to make Rey Mysterio the next version of John Cena (if you know what I mean), as I am saying that with respect as well, but the main thing the WWE are trying to do is make Cm Punk go around saying he is better than everybody and losing almost every one of his matches against his opponents, which in my opinion is very bad for a professional wrestler who actually has something that a lot of today's current professional wrestlers in the WWE do not have, and that thing would be known as "skill"(with all due to respect.)







BQ: Do I think the reason why the WWE ended up making Rey Mysterio win at Over the Limit because the WWE does not have what it takes to create a developed enough storyline with Rey Mysterio a part of the Straight Edge Society? Not necessarily, but in a way, yes it does. As you see, the WWE are trying to make Rey Mysterio everyone's so-called "hero" while they make Cm Punk look like the guy who thinks he is better than everyone and making him lose almost every one of his matches against his opponent(s), like I had said before. The WWE is definitely not the "brightest" creative staff, (as a lot of people can tell), but the WWE are trying their best to make the Children happy considering the fact that the WWE is currently in a PG rating which means more Children watching, so that is another reason why the WWE did what they did, (no matter how frustrating it can get...)

Answer 4

I agree with you though I did not watch the PPV but Rey joining the SES would have been interesting a possible heel turn could have worked for Rey.

Answer 5

Yes he is making SES look weak by winning so many matches against them



BQ- No they just don't have the balls to actually turn Mysterio heel just like Cena they'll lose some kid viewers

Answer 6

I really think that CM punk should have won and rey should have been heel. They should have had him and punk be champions.

Answer 7

Im sick of mysterio ALWAYS winning,hes overrated. He rarely puts anyone over. i heard he didnt want to drop the IC title to dolph ziggler when he was IC champion. Honestly imo hes overrated and so is his 619

Answer 8

He's good with the fans and attracts them to wwe, he is a good performer and that is why they make him win.

Answer 9

I am, extremly. I always hated Gay Mysterio after he beat Kane with his stupid 619.

Answer 10

He keeps dedicating his matches to Eddie, he and his fans are still not over Eddie's death, and he willl continue dedicatng them even 10 years after!!!
