Paul Heyman examined where WWE has gone in the weeks since the draft and criticized the way they've booked C.M. Punk. "One month later, and the excitement is just not there in the programming," Heyman wrote in his UK Sun blog. "WWE killed the increase in interest with the manner in which they screwed up their own momentum. CM Punk is being treated as champion the same was Rey Mysterio was. He's painted as an unworthy champion. He's not 'the man.' He's just the title holder during a transitional period.

"Now, there's nothing wrong with that but the idea was giving someone 'new' the opportunity to sink or swim at a top level. That's interesting to watch... Watching Punk only get to bide his time as champion? Not exciting. Oh yeah, Rey's on Raw, too. Thought I'd remind you of that, because WWE sure hasn't made a big deal about it, have they?" To read the full blog, visit the UK Sun website.

Powell’s POV: Agreed. WWE seems afraid to have Punk defeat one of the true main events. He can beat guys like JBL and William Regal, but he looks weak in matches against true main eventers such as Batista. Heyman also touched on a variety of other WWE related topics in his latest blog and I highly recommend it.
