Such a shame that The Rock is gonna win tonight. The only way I'd be happy about this is if Rock became Hollywood Rock again. He was awesome as that heel. Talking about how awesome Hollywood is, how much better it is than wrestling, and how he can just come in and beat whomever he wants. That would work.
So, in honor of Punk losing, your favorite match?
Mine is the street fight against Jericho at Extreme Rules. It's my 2nd favorite match of all time. Just an absolute brawl. A fucking WAR. I also love his match against Rey Mysterio at Capital Punishment.
Funny thing is, the board may seem slow, but we get on average 80 or so people coming back a day. These looky-loo bastards just need to sign up.

I know it is an obvious pick, but I have to go with Money in the Bank... I really want to see some of the 1 hour matches with Joe though...

Money In The Bank is good, but I think the most recent Night of Champions is their best outing. Punk was no longer the under-dog in that match, and brought it to Cena has well as anyone.

It's sad to see Punk lose the title but if he was to lose it to anyone might as well be Rock and 400 some odd days is a great accomplishment nowadays. Anyway, here's a short list of my favorite Punk matches:
Punk vs Joe 2 Punk/Joe 1 and 3 Punk vs Raven Dog Collar Match Punk/Cabana va Briscoes Punk vs Strong Punk vs Aries Punks first Money in the Bank win Punk vs Jeff TLC Punk vs Cena MITB 11 Both his matches with Jericho but I did like his Extreme Rules match better Punk vs Bryan And I guess I'll add Punk vs Rock, I really dug the match, more than Scott.

The MITB Cena match was magical. It was one of those brief flashes of wrestling being "perfect". Never seen a crowd that large that was that hot (I've seen hotter crowds, but they we ECW things in small venues).
The Joe matches in ROH are fantastic.

I think everyone should have a moment like that in their life. I mean, my God...
Your home town. A reaction of a life-time. A 5 star classic match, and you win the title. I mean....man, what a feeling all of that must have been.

And the fact that the crowd is absolutely crapping on the company's number guy in favor of you.

Punk vs Cena was the epitome of THE BIG FIGHT...
MITB was the perfect storm.
Top 5 fave matches of all time.

Yup. One of the FEW post-2001 moments that beats Attitude Era stuff.

Yeah Punk vs Cena MITB 2011 just had that all around perfect feeling. The storyline, the characters, the amazing atmosphere and two great wrestlers going out there and letting it all hang out. Watching it live with a few friends was great, three of us (one just to be a dick was cheering for Cena) were on the edge of our seats with every near fall. I hadn't been that into a wrestling match in many years.
