This is what I'd like to see happen.. Punk wins the MITB.. Orton wins the WWE title.. Punk cashes in on Orton immediately and makes him tap to the Anaconda Vice (just for good measure) - taking both the title and his long-awaited revenge on Orton, for what he did at Unforgiven.. It would make perfect sense, seeing as Punk never did get payback on Orton for costing him the title back at Unforgiven.. Punk taking Orton's newly-won championship, on the grandest stage of them all, would be the ULTIMATE payback.. Following this, we could have the Punk/Orton feud we should've had last year.. This is the only reason I would want Punk in the MITB - because if he's not winning it, there's really no point in him being in the match... and like many have said, I'd rather him defend the IC instead.. Thoughts?

Pass. I don't want to see a "repeat" of Punk winning MITB and then the world title. It needs to be someone new or it kills the match.

Hahaha. Punk isn't going to win. OK, Vince - thanks for letting us know.. I'm aware that it's 99 percent unlikely to happen, but the idea does make sense..

CM Punk v. William Regal for the IC title should've been at Wrestle Mania with Regal regaining his title.
Though, instead we get CM Punk in MITB. I don't like it because I, too, miss it when we would see the Intercontinental Championship defended and mean something.
To stay on topic, I don't like this idea because there is no way WWE has built up Randy Orton as the top heel right now with the best storyline going, only to drop the WWE Championship to CM Punk at Wrestle Mania XXV. NO WAY!

I like your idea actually...but you DO realize that Punk was not originally scheduled to win last year, right? I say it is going to be Morrison. -BEN

Won't happen and it shouldn't. Orton is the biggest heel in the company and it will kill his momentum. Orton is walking out of WrestleMania the WWE Champion.

That would be your dream but it should remain a dream. Hey I can't have Lita come back and win the title so you have to wait as well.. I think that he is going to lose the MITB match because he won it last year. I wish he could have been in a title match but I guess the writers decided this instead.

They took the title off of him b/c he was a crap champion so why would they just put it back on him at WM no less?

Sadly, Orton is established enough, to the point where he doesn't need the title... but it would be a HUGE rub for Punk - which is exactly what he needs.. They took the title off of him b/c he was a **** champion so why would they just put it back on him at WM no less? No.. You're getting Punk being "a sh*t champion", mixed up with sh*t booking and a sh*t creative team..

Why would Punk need a world title when the guy has already been a Triple Crown Champion? They are throwing belts at the guy because he's a positive role model and Creative can't think of him doing anything else. I say let someone else win MITB and Punk feud with them. -BEN

However, the WWE probably thinks that the fans have forgotten - or wants them to forget what happened back at Unforgiven..

Yes, all that build of Orton being an absolute lunatic and taking out the whole McMahon family should culminate to a glorified mid carder defeating him.
DOH!

Actually, it's going to culminate in a feud with HHH - which has already started, in case you hadn't noticed.. If you think about it, though.. Wouldn't immediately losing his newly-won title on the biggest stage possible, make Orton even MORE of a lunatic and even more crazy?..

However, the WWE probably thinks that the fans have forgotten - or wants them to forget what happened back at Unforgiven.. Well, they fired Manu, one of the attackers on Punk...and Legacy is way too involved in this Orton/McMahon storyline, so I doubt they are going to go back to it anytime soon. Like I said. Punk pretty much signifies everything the WWE wants to embody right now, athleticism, a clean lifestyle, and a compeitive spirit. Punk is the epitome of that, and they want the fans to rally around him to keep the company looking baby fresh, especially after the Benoit fallout and the investgations by Congress. What I want to know is what they've got planned for him after all this PG crap settles down...I can't see him going heel at the moment. -BEN

damn...kudos to you man for backing up Punk to the fullest but he just isn't that impressive in MITB matches. It should have went to John Morrison as I think as long as him and Shelton Benjamin are in the match that it could be nothing but entertaining.
Punk should have been defending the title against Regal. I thought the WWE was trying to bring back some honor in holding the IC title? It isn't very honorable when your IC champ isn't even defending his belt at the biggest PPV of the year...
