From everything I've read about Punk' surgery he will miss a little more than two weeks, which has him returning just after the TLC PPV. So why would the WWE strip him of the belt for missing one televised date?
Punk v Ryback will probably happen on either the last Raw of 2012, or the first Raw of 2013, which is where the match should have been booked for in the first place.

Who here thinks that Triple H's decision to have longer title reigns is a way to protect some of the higher numbers of Championship reigns.
Ric Flair is a 16 time Champion while Sting is next @ 14 & Triple H has 13 combined reigns.
Cena is up their as well with 12 reigns with the big belts.
So my question to you is this, was Triple H's decision to have longer Championship reigns his way of protecting Flair's number from a guy like Cena? Or did he make that call to build up title reigns like Punks 370+ and counting.

The show is called Aftermath, and it airs on the Score Television Network after the Tuesday afternoon repeat of Raw. It appears on youtube shortly after it airs on TV (no more than 3-4 days later).
Aftermath use to run Tuesdays & Fridays (After Raw & Smackdown), but the network was sold to one of our largest media companies and they cut Aftermath down to once a week and eliminated the Aftermath podcast that use to air on Monday Nights (and at one point daily).
From what I understand though Aftermath could be on it's last legs as Rogers Communications takes a deeper hand in the daily operations of the Score Network (the already own and operate Rogers Sportsnet, which consists of 5 channels across Canada).
As for Punk on the Talking Dead. I'll have to remember to watch this week as I tend to enjoy the celebs who watch the show more than the cast or crew members who appear on the Talking Dead.

Canada NEVER gets RAW live anymore, starts at 9pm, but starting December 10th Raw starts at 8:15, so we go back to the 15 minute delay.....

The TNA Schedule as listed on their website.
Looks like the Nov 29th & Dec 6th shows are their last live events of the year, plus the Dec PPV, which for some reason TNA never lists their PPV's on their travel schedule

In January they are taping the entire month overseas. They also don't have anymore Impact Live events scheduled at Universal for the rest of the year

Kane coming in and absolutely destroying Mankind was a great way to kick off his in ring career. Mankind had one of the best records ever against the Taker, so by having Kane not only beat Mankind but beat him decisively really made Kane look like a legit threat to Taker.

A Punk/Kofi feud would rock, but personally I would like to see the title on the line between the two of them.
I could see Kofi winning the Rumble and going onto losing at WrestleMania though, which could kick start the feud with Punk.
And WrestleMania would be headlined by Rock/Cena II

JTG use to have a great look, then they took it away from him. Now he looks just like every other lower guy in the locker room.
Teaming him with R-Truth could be magic, but most fans will look at that pairing as a cheaper version of R-Truth & Kofi.
WWE should either bring back Shad, and reform Cryme Tyme (which probably won't happen as that gimmick isn't PC while Linda runs for office), or they should just let him go. Mind you I can't see him jumping to TNA or ROH and being more than a lower card guy in either organization.

This probably has to do with the lawsuit most NWA Promotions have filed against the current president of the NWA. It's one reason NWA Hollywood is now known only as Championship Wrestling from Hollywood

Who here also thinks that CM Punk v Ryback will steal the Nash v Goldberg Finish?

Mark Henry said months ago that if he couldn't come back at 100% then he wasn't go to come back at all. Maybe his rehab is taking longer than estimated.

The Four Horsemen probably imploded at least once during their run. At many times they held ALL the major gold in the NWA/WCW

the only thing that could save wwe is competition and that won't happen because wrestling just isn't popular anymore. What WWE needs is the shot in the arm WCW gave them in the late 90's, and before that time neither WCW or WWE/F were very popular. The Monday Night Wars lit up the wrestling business levels that were really seen since the early 50's when Wrestling was a staple on Television (it was cheap to produce & brought in huge rating numbers). Unfortunately right now TNA is nowhere near becoming a threat as most wrestling fans don't care about TNA, which is a shame because they have some guys down there that could really make an Impact if given a chance. TNA needs to get away from being a showcase of former WWE talent (as of Bound for Glory all but one title is held or co held by someone known as a WWE guy) Ring of Honor, if they can keep going the way they are & get on live TV can pretty much take over as the number two promotion in the US, but they are years away from challenging WWE. Both TNA & ROH could use another Ted Turner type. Someone who isn't afraid to throw away money as their company works to take on WWE

I wouldn't bring back any titles. In fact I would eliminate one or two. For example Unify both the WWE & World, and also unify the US & IC. Maybe after that I would bring in the the old Television Championship under the rule that it has to be defended 3 times a week (ie. Raw/Smackdown & either Main Event, Superstars & Slam)

Off the top of my head, there is the WWE, WCW, NWA, TNA, Canadian Wrestling Hall of Fame, Pro Wrestling Hall of Fames in Iowa, New England & New York & Wrestling Observer Hall of Fame
Out of all of those which would you consider the most legit?

Sad part about tag team wrestling is most guys who team together in the Indy's will drop their partner in a heartbeat if they get the call from TNA/ROH/WWE and they will leave their partner in the dust. Back in the old territory days guys developed as a team and they lived and breathed their gimmick (Road Warriors are a great example).
I am all for midcard pairings, as long as they don't break up the minute they lose the Tag Team Championship, which will happen to teams like Kane & D. Bryan and probably Rhodes Scholars & Mysterio/Cara.
