How i'd book Punk v Triple H

For the time being id have Punk distanced from Triple H, with Punk concentrating on winning the WWE Title back at Hell in a Cell and HHH dealing with Laurinaitis, Nash and the whole conspiricy angle. I'd keep the fuse lit though with Punk still mentioning it in his promos but ultimately his main objective is the WWE Title.

At Hell in a Cell id have Cena retain after Punk goes to the top rope but is distracted by The Miz and R-Truth standing in the front row of the crowd. While they are trading insults as Punk is stood up top holding onto the cage, Cena makes Del Rio tap to the STF with Punk's back turned. He turns around and dives onto the pair of them but mid flight Del Rio taps.

On Raw Punk says he was 1 second away from stopping Cena from winning and its down to Miz and Truth. He tells Triple H to rehire them because he wants to kick their ass. He tells Hunter to get out here but he doesnt appear, the camera rolls to the back and Hunter is laid out in his office. As Punk watches the Titantron, he is ambushed from behind by Miz and Truth and beaten down until Awesome Truth escape through the crowd.

The following week, Triple H says he will grant Punk his wish, because he's fairly sure they were attacked by the same guys, and tells Punk he will get the chance to kick their asses, but he wont be doing it alone, because at Vengeance Punk and Triple H will team to take on R-Truth and The Miz. To make sure Punk is ready, HHH books him to face the World Heavyweight Champion Mark Henry next week on Raw. Punk wins via DQ after Awesome Truth interfere but HHH runs out to save him from the beatdown. Raw ends with them staring at eachother from across the ring.

Vengeance, Punk and HHH struggle to co-exist, their tags arent friendly but they are getting the job done. HHH inadvertantly pushes Punk off the apron to which Punk is furious and they argue but it settles down. HHH seems to be about to win the match as he sets up Miz for the Pedigree but the lights go out, the gong sounds, when the lights come back on Punk has Miz on his shoulder and hits the GTS for the 1-2-3 as Triple H is at the ropes staring at the stage where a returning Undertaker is stood! Hunter turns around and walks straight into a GTS, Punk stands over HHH and looks at The Undertaker confused as the PPV goes off the air.

Raw, and Triple H is not happy. He congratulates Punk on stealing one at Vengeance, he says he never realised being the COO would be such hard work, because not only is he trying to find out whats going on with this whole conspiracy, he's got The Undertaker to think about. Triple H is clearly rattled which brings out Punk. Punk taunts Hunter, he asks him if he can handle the pressure and says Vince handled the pressure all his life but already Hunter is buckling. Hunter says there is nothing more he wants than to beat CM Punk all around the arena, but he's got something to attend to which dates back to Wrestlemania, he wants to prove he can beat The Undertaker and he wants to do it at Survivor Series. Hunter tells Punk he keeps going on about change, and he will give Punk the opportunity to create change, because at Survivor Series he will be part of a traditional elimination match against R-Truth, The Miz, Del Rio and someone you've been wanting to get your hands on for a loooong time - Kevin Nash! Not only that, but Hunter tells Punk he can pick any 3 guys he wants, he doesnt care who they are, if he wants change - make it!

The following week, Punk teases who he will recruit. He mentions Steve Austin, but says he'll be too busy tweeting. He mentions Shawn Michaels, but says he'll be too busy watching The Undertaker beating his best friend again. Then he says he'd like to introduce us to 4 of his close friends, and out come Chris Hero, Claudio Castagnoli, and Colt Cabana! Punk gives us a backstory of their matches in ROH and says they will show the world what they are capable of. The Undertaker meanwhile accepts Triple H's offer of a match.

Survivor Series - Punk and Colt Cabana are the sole survivors of the match. Meanwhile, Triple H beats The Undertaker.

On Raw, Punk comes out with his ROH team and says they deserve full time contracts and says we all know who is the only person who can make that happen. Out comes The Game. Hunter congratulates them on the win last night, but says if Punk wants his guys to have contracts he will have to earn it. He says Punk keeps saying he's the best in the world so he's going to have to prove it. At TLC - CM Punk will face The Undertaker in a Tables match, if he wins - his guys get contracts. If he loses - they are history. Punk agrees to the match.

TLC. After a great back and forth match, The Undertaker chokeslams CM Punk through a table to win the match, and with his ROH guys in the front row at ringside, Punk has failed to win them contracts. Although The Undertaker pulls up Punk as a mark of respect, Punk is distraught he's let his friends down. Taker goes back to SD after this.

Raw, and Triple H says its too bad, he failed and his friends are history (fits in with them getting short term contracts). Punk calls Triple H a son of a bitch. Hunter laughs and says things are starting to go his way. He says he’s finally discovered whats been going on with Nash, Laurinaitis and the whole saga which has been going on since Summerslam. He says its been a long hard slog but as COO some things might not appear crystal clear over night, things take time, and he has dealt with the problem and things will be running a lot smoother from now on. Punk asks Hunter to tell him everything, but before HHH can speak he is interrupted by some officials from the back, they rush out onto the stage and shout for Hunter saying ‘Its Steph, its Steph’. HHH runs from the ring leaving Punk to ponder. Cameras follow HHH in the back and he bursts into his office to find his wife laid out on the floor. Raw goes off the air with HHH seething.

The following week, CM Punk says after last weeks events he is not convinced that Triple H has drawn a line under this ongoing saga. But Punk says he never thought he’d say this, but part of him has sympathy for HHH. To beat up a mans wife is low, its wrong, and he hopes HHH finds the culprit. Punk is interrupted by Kevin Nash! Nash stops at the stage. He is followed by The Miz, R-Truth and John Laurinaitis. They announce to the world that they have been playing The Game for months, and they have been winning. Nash says he received a text at Summerslam from HHH’s phone, but his good friend Johnny Ace sent it. Nash says HHH changed, he wasn’t the guy he’s known for 20yrs so he wanted to get into his head to see if he really had what it takes to be the COO of this company. Johnny Ace gets on the mic, he says he knew from day one that CM Punk would beat John Cena at Summerslam, which is why he sent the text for Nash to ‘stick the winner’. He wanted Punk to pay for publicly insulting him all those months ago. Truth gets on the mic, he says he’s been the victim of a conspiracy for a long time, and it was about time the shoe was on the other foot, he wanted to be part of something big, so when Laurinaitis approached him he couldn’t pass up the opportunity. The Miz speaks, he says he hasn’t been given the respect or opportunities he’s deserved. He says he beat John Cena at Wrestlemania, and that he’s the most must see Champion of all time, but since HHH has been in charge he’s been nothing but an afterthought so he wanted to get himself back into the spotlight where he belongs.

Punk says he isn’t surprised, he says its what he thought all along, but what he is surprised about is that Triple H has been telling the truth and that he was wide of the mark in assuming he was behind it all. Punk says he will dismantle them all one by one before going onto the Royal Rumble and winning it. He says he’s going to tell them what he thinks of them all, and will start with Nash, but is interrupted by Laurinaitis who shouts into his mic ‘Shut him up’! At which point, Punk’s mic goes off. Nash, Miz and Truth enter the ring and beat down Punk before holding their arms aloft as Raw goes off the air.

The next week. HHH opens the show. He says he was wrong when he said he thought he had solved this conspiracy. He says he cannot wait until Nash, Truth, Miz and Ace arrive because he is going to kick their ass so bad for beating up his wife. Later on in the night, the foursome come to the ring and are about to speak but HHH runs out and begins his assault, but the numbers game is too much. Just as he’s getting beaten down, CM Punk runs out and makes the save, they clear the ring together. HHH looks at Punk and offers his hand, to which Punk shakes to close the show.

It’s the Royal Rumble match. CM Punk enters at 13 and goes on to win the Rumble by last eliminating Randy Orton.

Next night on Raw, Punk is out celebrating his win when Triple H comes out to congratulate him. Hunter says Punk has one week to decide what title he wants to challenge for at Wrestlemania.

The following week, Punk announces that he’s going to face WWE Champion John Cena. But Hunter says Cena is already booked to face The Rock at Wrestlemania, so the match would have to be triple threat and that causes Triple H a big problem and that he’d give Punk a chance to reconsider and give his final decision later that night. In the final segment of the show, Punk talks about how he will prove at Wrestlemania that he truly is the best wrestler in the world, but The Miz, R-Truth and Nash hit the ring. They beat down Punk until Triple H comes out to make the save. Miz, Truth and Nash step back on one side of the ring as Hunter picks up Punk to even up the sides, but out of nowhere Triple H kicks Punk in the gut and drops him with the Pedigree! Laughs are shared, backs are slapped, and the show ends with HHH, Kevin Nash, The Miz and R-Truth holding their arms aloft.

The following week, they all come out and HHH says they have all played the game together. He says Punk wont be here tonight, and that ever since CM Punk became this wannabe anti-establishment hero and tried implementing change, he’s been nothing but a problem for the business. He says he tried getting along with Punk, he tried accepting that Punk might be right, but ultimately Punk is right about one thing – that HHH has a massive ego and he is the man. He said Steph wasn’t beaten up, they set it up to try and soften up Punk to see if he’d step up and do what he keeps saying he’ll do – create change, but he didn’t. HHH says he gave him chance after chance to prove that he has what it takes to make a groundbreaking impact in the business, but he just couldn’t do it because he is what he always has been and always will be – all mouth. He could have implemented change by beating The Undertaker at TLC, but he couldnt get the job done. Hunter announces that he just cant get enough of being in the spotlight, he cant step away from hogging the limelight, and that he has inserted himself into the Elimination Chamber match to challenge for John Cena’s WWE Title.

Elimination Chamber, and after Nash slides HHH a sledgehammer through the chains, Hunter nails Cena in the gut, then drops him with a Pedigree to become the new WWE Champion!

The following night on Raw, Punk comes out and cuts a long promo about how he admits he fell hook line and sinker. HHH pulled the wool over his eyes and he feels stupid for not seeing it coming. But he says he’s got a championship shot at Wrestlemania and that it doesn’t take a genius to work out who he’s gunning for. The next week is the official contract signing which states if CM Punk wins, Triple H be removed as the COO and replaced by his father in law Vince McMahon! Hunter agrees and signs the contract. He reminds Punk that the last 5 Royal Rumble winners have failed to win the gold at Mania.

At Wrestlemania, the card looks like this:

The Rock vs John Cena

CM Punk vs Triple H for the WWE Title

Randy Orton vs The Undertaker - World Heavyweight Championship vs The Streak

After an epic encounter its CM Punk who hits a third GTS on Triple H to cover him 1-2-3. CM Punk becomes the new WWE Champion, and Triple H loses his job as COO.

Quantity over quality means little.

Scott is back started it anyway........

It was light hearted banter, jeez boys

Quite a good read H, not a fan of Johnny Ace in Survivor Series (you don't need him anyway since you miscalculated and it was 5vs4) I also don't think there was any need to involve The Undertaker, again I'm not a fan of HHH becoming WWE Champion even if it is to drop it to Punk at Mania (good idea but I just personally feel that Rock Cena should get that spot while Punks story should be finally about over throwing the office)

Great imagination though bud

Mr H Knows i want his Man Babies anyway! He is the man with the Dilema that 606 helped with!

Great read H, i agree with Fernando though, seems far to good for Creative to even consider anything like this.

Nuff' Love Homie!

Im pretty sure some people over reacted to a joke on this thread

Where does that leave truth and miz?

Cheers for the comments boys.

Gaffer, never realised i miscalculated, good spot, ive edited it and taken Ace out of the match.

Scott, man babies are all yours lover boy.

AntLord, who are you? 100+ posts, but ive never noticed any of them.

TopoftheChops, Truth and Miz die.

quite a long read , as someone else said , maybe too imaginative and long for WWE creative to do , but on the whole , very good idea with HHH sorta befriending Punk then screwing him , a bit like Evolution ? Very good read though and would work very well

I must say I think that is an excellent, well thought out post. I would question how you have so much free time on your hands but I have been known to indulge in similarly long entries in the past as well!

It works bar the question mark over the SD MITB contract... I think that Cena/Rock will either be non-title to make it less obvious who will win (though I am sure we all know already) and that it will either be a RR winner v the WWE Champion or a triple threat match for the WHC.

If they did go with this I think that buy rates from RR to WM would be really good.

I would also add, could HHH's victory at NoC be designed to ensure that Punk gets a proper impact going over HHH at a later date as it shows that he still has it?

I'd do something similar to H at Hell in a Cell, at Vengence though I'd have CM Punk beat John Cena for the WWE title when Nash, X-Pac, Miz and Truth try and get involved, Cena fights off Miz then 3 guys jump the rails and take out Nash, Pac and Truth, Cena turns around into a small package for title, the next night on RAW Punk tells us he couldn't trust the WWE security to do their jobs so got his own backup and introduces them as Colt Cabana, Claudio Castonagi and Chris Hero, HHH is sick of guys without contracts influencing WWE results so at Survivor Series guys will fight for contracts it'll be 'The Future Endevours' Nash, Pac, Miz & Truth vs 'Punk's Pirates' Punk, Cabana and the KoW, Triple H would save Punk every week in the lead up to Survivor Series.

At Survivor Series Punk is left with Nash and Miz, after a ref bump Johnny Ace rushes to ringside, HHH comes out to stop him, sledgehammer in hand, Nash confronts Trips, Nash backs off and then inexplicably he hits Punk, Miz, Nash, Ace and Triple H look at each other before Miz pins him for the win, Survivor Series would go off air with Triple H, Miz, Truth, X-Pac, Nash and Ace embracing in the ring.

At TLC I'd have John Cena reclaim the title, Punk would be on the top of the ladder ready to unhook the title when the title would suddenly elevate out Punk's reach, while Punk looks confused Cena manages to jump up the ladder and AA Punk off the ladder, as he does that, the title miraculously is lowered again, Cena is seemingly unaware of whats transpired. CM Punk starts RAW claiming Hunter is behind it, he claims he's not, Cena would apologise as he didn't realise, the next week on RAW, Rock does a video promo, he admits it was him who screwed Punk, he had to, Cena has proven he can't beat Punk for the title so he had to make it certain, he wants his match with Cena at Mania to be for the WWE Title, this enrages both Cena and Punk, Cens vows to kick his ass while Punk announces he's going to win the Royal Rumble and blow the WrestleMania Main Event plans to bits.

Punk would conveniently be drawn #1 while Triple H who has entered, vowed to stop Punk winning, at the end of the match Punk Miz and Triple H are left, Nash and Truth are at ringside, Punk seemingly eliminates Miz then he manages to 'win' by throwing HHH out, what Miz doesn't realise is that Nash and Truth caught Miz so his both feet didn't touch the floor, Miz sneaks up on Punk, nails him over the top rope and wins the Rumble.

At Elimination Chamber Punk pins Truth and Nash and Dolph Ziggler while Cena makes Del Rio tap, Triple H worried that Punk's going to ruin the Main Event at WrestleMania gets into the Chamber, Cena stops him from attacking Punk and gets into a brawl with HHH, while this happens Rock comes up through the Chamber (ala HBK in 2012) and Rock Bottoms Punk, he disappears again and Cena returns to the ring again oblivious, Punk staggers to his feet just in time to get an AA for the win.

Punk demands and gets his long awaited re-match with HHH at WrestleMania, this is where he would finally go over HHH clean, no run ins, no weapons, he finally beats the office.

Interesting one Gaffer. I REALLY like the idea of the title being raised up in the ladder match though my only thought would be whether Rock would be prepared to look like a heel given his Hollywood position nowadays?

Really good read Mr H, not normally prepared to read fantasy booking especially such a long read but your name as author gave it recognition & as soon as I started I was gripped!

Agree with Gaffer is the Undertakers presence really needed? Good sound solid booking with logically build up & believable twist befitting of the Triple H character. Loved the way key events from Summerslam were explained as well as the stuff you booked.

JoshSansom wrote:Interesting one Gaffer. I REALLY like the idea of the title being raised up in the ladder match though my only thought would be whether Rock would be prepared to look like a heel given his Hollywood position nowadays?

I don't think it'd turn him heel, Rock would have his fans the same as Cena and Punk will have theirs, I'd say it would definitely present Punk as an equal to Cena and Rock though which is my intention plus on a side note I'd like Cena go into his WrestleMania match with Rocky taunting him that he's only champ because of him.

I don't think you can't present Rock as a heel or a face now, not unless he was back week in week out, I think you can just present him as badass who does what he wants when he wants and will deal with the ramifications.

I thought this was a great read. Some interesting twists and turns in there! Keeps it all quite exciting.

I love how you bought the Undertaker back, and also how you took the WWE championship out the Rock vs. Cena match.

All in all, great idea!

Thanks for the comments guys, I sometimes think its a bit gay doing these fantasy bookings but had time on my side today so gave it a shot.

Brady, thanks for the compliment and reading the article, top man. I suppose the idea with The Undertaker is that he's legit scheduled to return at Vengeance but doubt he'd compete so that's how I'd slot him in. Also Triple H said after Mania that when Taker does return that he'd be waiting, I was just trying to keep a bit of consistency. I guess the Taker involvement is down to personal preference.

Gaffer, like your idea too mate, although I'm not sure if The Rock would garner a heel like reaction for preventing Punk from taking the strap off Cena?

Josh, to be perfectly honest mate I totally forgot about the SD MITB! I guess Bryan would cash in at TLC or something! Well spotted though...

i think punk and h is already wrapped up tbh

Oh ok, that's the 1st I've heard regarding Taker returning at Vengance. If that's the case then yeah it makes sense. Good spot Josh regarding Bryant but that can easily explained just have Cena drop the strap to Triple Ha bit sooner. I think if they keep the title on Henry making him even more of a believable monster theycan really make a star of Bryant at Wrestlemania if hecan go over clean via submission

Really? I think it's just getting started.

I'm not so sure it would get Rock a heel reaction, it might but I think with Rock being honest and open he wouldn't get to much heat, in the build upto WrestleMania though I'd definitely let Punk get some payback on Rock

Mr H read the Scott Steiner thread that I have bumped. You actually were rude to me first.... I simply did the same!

You wrote 2 lines which didnt get a single reply for nearly 24hrs so i think the tumbleweed comment was justified.

I write a novel which clearly took time and effort, and you write 'Yawn' after 29mins of it being up.

Bit different dont you think?

Not at all, you were still rude to me

I couldnt really give a sh*t to be honest mate. Im not someone who cries about it if someone spams my article on a public forum. Im also not pig headed enough to expect everyone to automatically like it just because its taken time and effort. If you dont like it, just say so, im not going to shat myself about it.

Are you new to the wrestling board by the way AntLord?

Cheers, lets not fight, im not that new no, been here a while, but of a lurker, you?

You wrote an nonsensical post designed to get idiotic responses, even that all but failed, this thread took time dedication and effort designed to spark conversation and debate, your response was pathetic and an attempt to WUM a poster who with 1 post should more imagination and creativity than all your posts put together, you're joining Pauline on the tumbleweed list so I don't need to read anymore of your crap

ok

Oh ok, its just ive never noticed you on here before.

Yep im new, joined last week and sent 700 posts in 6 days.

Nice effort buddy

Seems to me like Mr H has another Dilemma....




TO THE RANGERS BOARD!

Great post Mr H

I would love to see all of that but it will never happen because wwe will somehow screw this whole thing up

My personal preference would be for Cena to hold the title until the Rumble, looking like he's going to take it all the way to Wrestlemania, until Orton wins the Royal Rumble. Orton says he's going to challenge for the WWE Championship, and tells Cena that if he wants to fight the Rock one-on-one he'll have to drop the WWE Championship, which after much deliberation he does. Cena then challenges Orton to a fight at Elimination Chamber for making him do that. Also at Elimination Chamber Punk wins the now vacated WWE Championship and fights Orton at Wrestlemania. It will lead to an interesting dynamic after Wrestlemania, with Punk/Orton/Cena all with their own fans all vying for the Championship.

After the RR, I'd have Daniel Bryan say that he's going to fight for the WHC at Wrestlemania, but then cash in after the Elimination Chamber (which Sheamus wins) only to lose. Sheamus then fights the Undertaker in Championship Vs Streak at Wrestlemania.

Don't have a whole 6 month plan, but that's the end game I'd be playing for.
