by Dr Gregory House MD Tue 06 Dec 2011, 12:30 pm
This orgionallly started as an ambitious project to book my way to all the major matches I wanted at wrestlemania, I may still do that but I'm going to get my exam out the way first, anyways the following booking is looking at the build up to The WWE Championship match at WM, it begins the Raw after HHH was given the vote of no confidence, as always all thoughts, comments and critcisms welcomed

Raw 17/10/11
Johnny Ace opens the show, he says that he has come to clear up the controversy from the end of Raw the previous week ‘As you all know, Miz and Truth had previously filed a lawsuit against the WWE, while former COO’s preferred to bury their heads in the sand and use brute force and aggression to solve their problems, I am a business man and have acted in the best interests of the WWE, so on the condition that they drop their lawsuit I, John Laurinaitis, Executive Vice President of Talent Relations and the acting Chief Operating Officer of the WWE, have rehired Miz and Truth.
Alberto Del Rio comes down to the ring, he cuts a promo insulting Punk saying it was his ‘destiny’ to become WWE Champion once again and will defeat Punk at Vengenace, Cult of Personality rings out and Punk joins Del Rio and Ace in the ring, he rips into both men, calling Del Rio a ‘joke champion’ and saying Ace ‘almost makes me miss HHH’, Ace tells Punk that it will be him and Cena vs Awesome Truth in the main event tonight.
During the main event Del Rio comes down to provide guest commentary for the main event, towards the end Cena, who has been selling for the faces, makes the hot tag to Punk, Punk dominates Awesome Truth and gets Miz up for the GTS, Truth tries to get involved, while the ref is distracted with him and Cena is still selling outside, Del Rio jumps up and hits Punk with the WWE title, Truth points the refs attention back to the ring as Miz rolls Punk up for the 1-2-3, after the match, Del Rio, Miz and Truth beat down Punk and Cena, the show ends with Del Rio standing over Punk holding the WWE title high.

‘Are you listening Punk, there’s been a lot of talk of conspiracies over the last few months Punk, but there was only one real conspiracy, the conspiracy from HHH to take my place in the WWE, you see I John Laurinaitis, Executive Vice President of Talent Relations and the acting Chief Operating Officer of the WWE, was at one point the Anonymous General Manager of Raw, I was until you and Hunter got involved, when you got rid of Mr McMahon, Hunter got greedy, he politicked his way into the position of COO and took all the power, power that was rightfully mine, so I made the decision to take that power back, I with the help of my associates, exposed Hunter for what he was, and that was unfit to be COO of the WWE, so I guess you could say Punk that we are the real conspiracy in the WWE, and you Punk are the classic example of everything The Conspiracy stands against, you are unprofessional and a disgrace to this company, I would have fired you on the spot if I could but unfortunately due to the recent spate of firings by my predecessor, the WWE Board of Directors have reserved the right to moderate all requests for dismissal and you have proved difficult to get rid of, but I tell you now Punk, you will never be WWE champion as long as I am in charge, you are unfit to share a ring with a man like Alberto Del Rio, a champion the WWE can be proud to have represent them, I’m sure next week Punk you’ll be making your usual smart-alec comments and talking about how you are going to bring me down Punk, but I tell you this now, you cannot fight The Conspiracy’
Raw 31/10/11

‘I am addressing CM Punk now, I know you’re not here tonight, but I’m sure you’re sitting at home watching on TV, are you comfy Punk, I’m sure you are, because you are lazy, you are unprofessional, I bust my ass for 17 years to get where I am, you come in sit down on the stage and spout some trash on a microphone and suddenly you expect to be a top guy, frankly if you hadn’t taken the WWE Title, this WWE Title (he gestures to the belt round his waist) I would have been happy to have seen you’re sorry ass walk out the door and never come back, I’ve got to be honest Punk, you were never in my vision of the WWE, you are not the sort of guy this company, my company, needs as champion, if someone else hadn’t made it their business to terminate your WWE title reign at Summerslam, I would have done it pretty quickly myself, but I was never lying when I said I respected you, you have a gift for anarchy Punk, and when John Laurinaitis, started playing political games, anarchy is what I needed, so I kept you close, earned your trust, you see when someone starts a political game you’ve got to play the game, and no one plays the game better than me, and you Punk were the perfect pawn in that game, you initiated the check mate against Laurinaitis and protected your King, and now the King is back on his throne, when you play these games Punk you’ve got to take some gambles, I gambled you would defeat Laurinaitis and I was right, I gambled you would make it through the elimination chamber and I was right, why you might ask would I want you to make it through the elimination chamber when I don’t want you as champion, well it’s time to end the game Punk, I’m going to make you an offer, you gambled your career once are you willing to do it again? Are you willing to gamble your career against my position as COO? I am, and you know why, because it’s not a gamble, the mistake Laurinaitis made was he put his trust in the likes of Miz and Del Rio, I learned the hard way not to trust anyone, in fact Punk you will be facing the only person I do trust, and that’s me, I am going to beat you at Wrestlemania and I am going to end your WWE career once and for all, because I am the only man I can trust to represent this company as champion, and starting next week I will begin representing this company as champion, with my first match on Raw in 5 months, I hope you’ll be watching Punk, it will give you an idea of what happens when you mess with me’

‘In case I didn’t make myself clear last week, I have accepted HHH’s challenge, his position as COO vs my career, HHH was right, sometimes when you play the game, you have to make gambles, I have sought to make change in the WWE, I want a WWE free of politics, I want a WWE where someone is judged, not on their size, not if they are a good company man, I want people to be judge on who is the best wrestler and if gambling my career is what it takes to make that happen, then that is a risk worth taking, I disagree with HHH when he said that I am lazy, I have worked damn hard to get to where I am today, I have fought and scraped my way to the WWE and I don’t want to give it up lightly, a few months ago I was jaded, I was tired, I lost sight of what was important to me, but being here in this ring, dropping pipebombs and proving myself every week as the best in the world, that is my passion and I wouldn’t trade it for anything, but HHH has grown out of control he is paranoid, he is dangerous and I will risk everything to stop him, he says he can’t be beaten, but I fought John Laurinaitis and I won, I fought the mighty Vincent Kennedy McMahon and I won, every moment of my WWE career, the machine has been against me, I will not stop fighting, and I will win’

Johnny Ace opens the show, he calls Punk and HHH down to the ring, he sarcastically congratulates both men and reveals that he was unable to get clearance to fire them, he says though that nothing has changed, he is still in charge and will make their life a living hell, Punk stops Ace and says he feels he is in an unsafe working environment ‘I mean I have been injured, there’s been wrestlers getting suspended all over the place, I have been attacked countless times and now (he turns round and kicks Justin Roberts in the head) WWE announcers are being attacked, John Laurinaitis I’m giving you a vote of no confidence and am calling a strike starting immediately.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Punk and HHH are shown outside in the parking lot, they have been joined by a small group of face’s.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ace, Miz and Del Rio go to the ring, Ace addresses the strikers who have grown in number slightly, he offers Punk a world title shot to call off the strike, Del Rio is outraged and storms off, Punk refuses the title shot, Punk and HHH introduces the newest recruit to the strike, the royal rumble winner Sheamus, he says that he will not be competing until Ace goes, Ace and Miz leave the ring.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
At the end of the show, Ace marches out, the strike has grown bigger still, Ace gets on the mic and announces if the strike doesn’t end now, he is firing everyone in the parking lot, as Executive VP of Talent Relations he has ’50 guys down in Florida’ waiting to replace them, he says that he can’t fire Sheamus but ‘if he doesn’t want to go to wrestlemania, Daniel Bryan is waiting to challenge Christian for the World Championiship’, HHH and Punk stop Ace, they say before Ace fires them they won’t to introduce there newest supporter,
‘FINALLY!...The Rock has come back, to some parking lot’
Rock cuts a promo and says if Ace doesn’t go, Cena vs Rock is off, he dares Ace to fire him and see how the Board of Directors respond, Ace puts the mic to his lips to respond, stalls, drops it and walks alone up the ramp dejected to end the show.
Raw 6/2/11
HHH opens the show, he states that following Ace’s firing the WWE Board of Directors were in need of someone to lead the WWE and as a result he is ‘back in charge baby’, he calls out Punk, he thanks Punk and says although he doesn’t like him he sure as hell respects him, he says the 1st order of business is to get the WWE title back in the hands of someone HHH can trust, he calls out Del Rio, Del Rio grovels in the ring when he gets in the ring, HHH isn’t having it, he says he will give Del Rio a fighting chance and at Elimination Chamber will defend his WWE title against the one man HHH can trust, himself, Punk is outraged he says that after all he did for HHH he can’t belive he doesn’t trust him, HHH tells Punk that while he didn’t like Johnny Ace, he did have a point, Punk is not the sort of guy WWE wants as a champion, he tells Punk that if he wants something in WWE he has to earn it, he tells him he will be having a match tonight to qualify for the Raw Elimination Chamber match, Punk says that after all he’s been through the man is still holding him down
Punk defs Alex Riley to qualify for the Elimination Chamber match
Raw 13/2/11
The line up for the Raw Elimination Chamber Match is CM Punk, The Miz, Dolph Ziggler, Jack Swagger, Mason Ryan and Zack Ryder, a beat the clock challenge is made for that night, the person who sets the fastest time enters last and the person who sets the longest time enters 1st, Mason Ryan defs Drew McIntyre in 1.31, no one beats that time over the course of the night, Punk came out last against Jinder Mahal, Punk locked in the Anaconda Vice and looks set to hit the fastest time, HHH comes out at that moment, Punk jumps up distracted and Mahal rolls him up for the pin, HHH calls Punk unprofessional for not getting the job done and tells him he will be entering first.
WWE Elimination Chamber 19/2/12
The WWE Championship is before the Raw Elimination Chamber, HHH defeats Del Rio in a hard fought match up to win his 14th World Championship.

Raw 20/2/12
It’s HHH championship coronation at the end of the show, he promos about how the controversy is over and the WWE finally has a proper champion, Punk interrupts he calls HHH paranoid, he says WWE isn’t about who’s the best company man, it’s about who is the best and Punk is the best in the world, when Punk turns around HHH blindsides him, he thanks Punk for coming as he has been waiting to do this for a long time, he beats Punk down and ends the show by pedigreeing him through the announce table.
Raw 27/2/12
HHH opens the show, he comes down to the ring and gets on the mic,
‘I am addressing CM Punk now, I know you’re not here tonight, but I’m sure you’re sitting at home watching on TV, are you comfy Punk, I’m sure you are, because you are lazy, you are unprofessional, I bust my ass for 17 years to get where I am, you come in sit down on the stage and spout some trash on a microphone and suddenly you expect to be a top guy, frankly if you hadn’t taken the WWE Title, this WWE Title (he gestures to the belt round his waist) I would have been happy to have seen you’re sorry ass walk out the door and never come back, I’ve got to be honest Punk, you were never in my vision of the WWE, you are not the sort of guy this company, my company, needs as champion, if someone else hadn’t made it their business to terminate your WWE title reign at Summerslam, I would have done it pretty quickly myself, but I was never lying when I said I respected you, you have a gift for anarchy Punk, and when John Laurinaitis, started playing political games, anarchy is what I needed, so I kept you close, earned your trust, you see when someone starts a political game you’ve got to play the game, and no one plays the game better than me, and you Punk were the perfect pawn in that game, you initiated the check mate against Laurinaitis and protected your King, and now the King is back on his throne, when you play these games Punk you’ve got to take some gambles, I gambled you would defeat Laurinaitis and I was right, I gambled you would make it through the elimination chamber and I was right, why you might ask would I want you to make it through the elimination chamber when I don’t want you as champion, well it’s time to end the game Punk, I’m going to make you an offer, you gambled your career once are you willing to do it again? Are you willing to gamble your career against my position as COO? I am, and you know why, because it’s not a gamble, the mistake Laurinaitis made was he put his trust in the likes of Miz and Del Rio, I learned the hard way not to trust anyone, in fact Punk you will be facing the only person I do trust, and that’s me, I am going to beat you at Wrestlemania and I am going to end your WWE career once and for all, because I am the only man I can trust to represent this company as champion, and starting next week I will begin representing this company as champion, with my first match on Raw in 5 months, I hope you’ll be watching Punk, it will give you an idea of what happens when you mess with me’
HHH drops the mic and exits the ring.
Raw 5/3/12
There is much hype for HHH’s 1st raw match in 5 months, in the main event.
HHH comes down for his match, his opponent is Santino Marella, HHH gains a definitive advantage fairly quickly but continues to take liberties with Marella, he pedigrees Marella 3 times and pins him with his foot on Marella’s chest, after the match he drags Marella and sets him up for a pedigree on the announce table, HHH shouts that this is what will happen to Punk if he messes with him and pedigrees Marella to end the show.
Raw 12/3/12
This week on Raw it’s HHH vs Evan Bourne, HHH hits a pedigree on Bourne very quickly, HHH pins him and once again goes for a pedigree on the announce table, Punk comes out and brawls with HHH in the ring, security come out and separate them, as Punk is dragged away he can be heard shouting, ‘you’re on, you’re on!’
Raw 19/3/12
CM Punk opens the show, he has a mic in his hand,
‘In case I didn’t make myself clear last week, I have accepted HHH’s challenge, his position as COO vs my career, HHH was right, sometimes when you play the game, you have to make gambles, I have sought to make change in the WWE, I want a WWE free of politics, I want a WWE where someone is judged, not on their size, not if they are a good company man, I want people to be judge on who is the best wrestler and if gambling my career is what it takes to make that happen, then that is a risk worth taking, I disagree with HHH when he said that I am lazy, I have worked damn hard to get to where I am today, I have fought and scraped my way to the WWE and I don’t want to give it up lightly, a few months ago I was jaded, I was tired, I lost sight of what was important to me, but being here in this ring, dropping pipebombs and proving myself every week as the best in the world, that is my passion and I wouldn’t trade it for anything, but HHH has grown out of control he is paranoid, he is dangerous and I will risk everything to stop him, he says he can’t be beaten, but I fought John Laurinaitis and I won, I fought the mighty Vincent Kennedy McMahon and I won, every moment of my WWE career, the machine has been against me, I will not stop fighting, and I will win’
Punk drops the mic and leaves.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It is announced that tonight HHH and Punk will be picking each others opponents and HHH is out 1st against Mason Ryan.
HHH defeats Mason Ryan, after picking up the win, he pedigrees Ryan for a 2nd time
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Punk comes down for his match, his opponent is Mark Henry, Punk makes Henry tap out to the Anaconda Vice, after the match HHH comes out to the ramp and the two stare down.
Raw 26/3/12
A contract signing is organised for Punk + HHH on Raw, the two come out to the ring, following some insulting promos they end up brawling before being separated by security.
Wrestlemania 28 1/4/11
It’s CM Punk vs Triple H for the WWE Championship, HHH’s position as COO vs Punk’s WWE career, the match is long and hard fought with momentum shifting several times, towards the end of the match Punk goes for the ‘Randy Savage’ tope rope elbow, HHH catches him with a kick on the way down and hits a pedigree, 1-2-Kick Out, HHH cannot believe, he hauls Punk to his feet and hits another pedigree, 1-2-Punk Kicks Out again!, A frustrated HHH drags Punk out to the announce table, HHH sets Punk up for a pedigree on the table, HHH screams that it is over, at the last second Punk counters he flips HHH up and through the Spanish announce table, HHH is out cold, an exhausted Punk manages just to drag him into the ring before the count, a staggered HHH gets to his feet but he is to out of it to fight, Punk picks up HHH and hits the GTS, 1-2-3, it’s over, CM Punk is finally the WWE Champion once again and HHH is no longer COO, grabbing the belt Punk mounts the turnbuckle, as confetti streams from the rafters, Punk holds the title aloft as he screams ‘BEST IN THE WORLD!’.

Tremendous piece Dr G, really really good work mate. I've read it twice now, admittedly the second time round to look for any flaws, but i honestly cant find any. Its fluent, its logical, and its masterfully written.
I tip my hat to you sir.

Well thought out, excellent post.
My only flaw would be Sheamus winning the Rumble.

Great read mate really enjoyable, you booked some things that I'd have went with, somethings that looked like the WWE would do but somehow didn't.
I liked it, the only thing I'd do if I was booking Punk to win the title would be to win the Rumble, I'd also have HHH win the title around Nov/Dec time so by the time Mania came around we'd be desperate for him to drop it
Excellent imagination and dedication, how long did it take you?

Cheers for the kind words guys.
As I said I am/ possibly was looking at booking a few of these roads in conjunction and feel that Sheamus needed the rumble more than Punk.
I hear what you were saying Gaff, in an ideal world I would have had the title on HHH longer and established him more as a heel, but unfortunatly I just didn't have the time, I felt it was more important that I let the Punk/Johnny Ace angle play out logically, have Punk rebel for a cause against a real heel authority, because lets face it he had been just f****** about until that point, If I had been booking the fued to peak around Extreme Rules/Over the Limit time I would certainally have built up HHH's heel reign for longer but time just worked against me in these things.
All in all this took me about a week, wrote the thing out in notes for first given the length of the story I was trying to portray, reviewed and rewrote it a couple of times until it all made sense then wrote thing thing out in full, now I must focus on revising for my exam on friday

Yeah I can see what you're saying, in an ideal World HHH, Nash and Ace would have been all in it together going right back to SummerSlam with the big reveal being HHH's heel turn on Punk during the tag match with Punk and Awesome Truth at Hell In A Cell or Vengence

Had I started booking this just post MITB, I would probably have had things play out that way but from the point I started at I felt it was illogical to turn HHH heel in league with Ace. Plus I sort of wanted to do something a bit different I didn't see the point in booking something that everyone had been speculating about for months.

You should email this to the WWE to show them how to do long term booking again.

Overall a great read. I have 2 flaws if you dont mind me pointing them out.
1 - I cant seen Kevin Nash or Mark Henry ever being made to tap to the Anaconda Vice.
2 - The Elimination Chamber match will always be for the title. Whats the point of them if not for the belt?
But other than that I really enjoyed reading it!!!

At least one Chamber match every year isn't for the title, it's for the #1 contendership

Terrific read! Half expected Trips to be in cahoots with Ace and Nash but hey. Great job on building on Punk getting screwed and being held back would make a great moment at mania when he finally captured the gold!

Shot- why can't Nash and Henry be made to tap to the vice, my fantasy booking was desgined to get Punk over and as disposible enhancement talent those to could easily be made to tap
Leak- The Conspiricy remained after SS but I did stop reffering to them by that name, Ziggler and Rhodes went back to what they were up to (Rhodes pinfall over Orton was to continue there feud) and as we all know Truth's suspension began the night after SS and he was (kayfabe) injured, The two remaining wrestling members are Miz and Nash, Nash was taken out at TLC, leaving Miz (and of course Del Rio but as WWE Champion he had another agenda).

Fair enough and I suppose it is fantasy booking. What I meant was there was no way that WWE would allow Mark Henry to tap out. Not even the STF. Nash may be sligtly different but with his political influence I would doubt he would allow himself to tap out to Punk unless he hit the gym more lol.
I must admit though, if he did make them tap it would put him over massively. So the ends justify the means!!

My philosophy in terms of wrestling booking is that effects positive and negative both in the long and short term for everyone involved, bear in mind that by the point he faces Punk in my fantasy world Henry has already been beaten cleanly and lost the WHC to Sheamus so no longer has to be protected in the way he was previously.
The way Henry is being treated in the WWE just now is a problem, his momentum built up with a series of wins (short term given his age) should have been given to a wrestler who would stand to gain long term (in my fantasy Sheamus) but instead it is being given to Big Show who stands to gain nothing in the long term but thats digressing. Anyways at this point in time Henry's short term momentum has already been shifted to someone who can benefit long term and Punk's achivement will be acomplished when Henry is no longer as protected as he would have been.
Kevin Nash, I'm sure he came in to the WWE with all sorts of promises about putting Punk over, obviously he's managed to weasel his way out of it, but it dosn't cut any slack with me, it obviously benefits Punk more (long term) than it does Nash (short term if even that) so he will tap.
