CM PUNK TO ATTEND RING OF HONOR TAPING?
Ring of Honor sources insist that there have been no talks between WWE and the company about shooting any kind of angle for the CM Punk storyline. Some expect Punk to at least attend the ROH TV tapings in Chicago on August 13th.
KANE ALSO INJURED AND OUT FOR THREE MONTHS
WWE announced this morning that Mark Henry injured Kane on last night’s episode of Friday Night SmackDown. WWE is saying that Kane will be out of action for at least three months. As far as we know, this is all part of a storyline as Big Show also went down with an injury at the hands of Henry. Here’s what WWE wrote:
“Similar to what he did to Big Show at Money in the Bank, Mark Henry brutalized Kane’s leg using a steel chair on the July 22 edition of SmackDown. The attack occurred just moments after Orton defeated Kane in a brutal Street Fight.
According to WWE doctor Michael Sampson, Kane suffered a fractured fibula, which will keep him out of the ring for at least three months. “But because of potential complications with such a severe injury, it could also keep him out of action for an undetermined amount of time,” Sampson said.”

CM PUNK RIPS OFF TRIPLE H
CM Punk crashed the joint Mattel/WWE panel—WWE: Past, Present and Future—yesterday afternoon at the San Diego Comic-Con, featuring Triple H, Rey Mysterio and WWE Hall of Famer Bret Hart.
Punk announced himself via bullhorn and then, with the WWE Championship in hand, sauntered to the designated question-asking microphone and began to speak. The Straight Edge Superstar took exception to WWE attempting to crown a new champion on Raw and then challenged Mysterio, or anyone else who wanted to be champ, to head out to Chicago to take him on.
Punk then asked Triple H and creative writer Brian Gewirtz why Zack Ryder wasn’t on television. Triple H, in what appeared to be a kayfabe response, told Punk that things had changed on Raw and there was a new regime. He told Punk to give him a call. Punk responded by telling Hunter that he was certain Stephanie had his phone number.

BOXER TO WORK WITH WWE

WWE WANTING PERSONALITY CONFLICT
There’s a mentality in WWE right now that they can hire talented soap opera writers at a lower price than in the past before because of the collapse of the soap opera genre. WWE is hiring new writers, most with a soaps background, because they want WWE programming to feature more personality conflict – as seen with the Vince McMahon and Triple H angle at the end of Monday’s RAW.
