Really good match despite the finish. I would love to see Punk retain at Unforgiven, then move into a feud with Jericho over the title. A pay per view match between them would be gold. Give them 20 minutes and let them work.

It's like almost the entire board forgot that the hometown hero always loses in WWE. .......La Resistance.......Plus loads of others in the past have won in their hometowns .

Yeah? Is Shane and Steph next week? I thought they said tonight? Adamle made the announcement for them.(Championship Scramble) Oh i understand now, but they made it seem like they would be there. And when Adamle said that i knew it was by order of them, but i thought there would be a bigger announce ment later

I still don't understand why people are so surprised. Can anyone here honestly name a time that the hometown face won their match?

RAW was very bad tonight.The booking was terrible and needs to improve. How can you have Punk lose in his hometown that was total bull$hit. Mike Adamle sucks big time and seriously needs to be replaced.

What a terrible episode of Raw. The only thing that interested me was Adamle's announcement regarding the Unforgiven main event.

I don't think that loss counts as a job since the finish wasn't clean and Punk had a good amount of offense in their match.

I say HBK vs Chris Jericho at Unforgiven and the stipulation is if HBK loses to Jericho he must leave the WWE forever. Think about it how Jericho told HBK tonight at Summerslam tell the world and everyone the reason why you can not wrestle is cause of what he did to him at The Great American Bash. I can also see HBK's wife turning on him and going with Jericho. This can all be a setup. It is so obvious what other reason can I think of Jericho punching HBK's wife in the mouth lead up to. Yeah Shawn coming back to wrestle but there is something behind all of this. C.M. Punk and JBL will have a rematch at Unforgiven and I can see Randy Orton coming back and get involved in the match which will lead up to a Punk and Orton feud and both of them having a match at NO MERCY. The whole Kane and Rey storyline is really got my mind thinking. Kane and Rey will have a match at Unforgiven and another stipulation will be on the line if Rey loses he must unmask if Rey wins Kane must put his mask back on. I really don't know just took a wild guess here. I am just trying to figure out the storyline between the two. JBL lost too clean for a rematch .it will be cm punk vs batista or randy orton will return tonight & ruin punks homecoming. Obviously, its not. Just goes to show you dont know anything.

That scramble match for the world title sounds terrible. If anything, it sounds like WWE is going have Punk win the title at the last minute but will probably make him look like garbage the whole match in the process.

Punk will retain, but then again this is a match i could see them taking the belt off him as well

Hopefully they have a great card next week.
Also What happened to the Clowns in the crowd after the Batista match?
