Sunday night marked another Montreal Screw Job, this time around, CM Punk “screwing over” the Undertaker in their match at WWE Breaking Point. Normally I do a week-in-review articles, but this time around, I want to write about how stupid this screw job storyline is, in my opinion.

To give you my honest and philosophical opinion about this, I find this absolutely stupid! Why? One reason is, the whole “Montreal Screw Job” route is a road that they should never go down again. WWE should have never gone down to begin with 12 years ago against Bret Hart! Especially after doing research about the show Screw Job 12 years ago, I am surprised that the Undertaker was willing to do this whole angle.

Here’s why this whole angle is stupid, and I am hoping to go into detail with my reasoning. I believe they (the WWE) backed themselves into a corner. I believe why there were in a corner is booking the Undertaker in a submission match against a new main eventer that has tremendous heat right now. The World Title changed hands four times within three pay-per-views, so if they would have done a fifth World Title change in four pay-per-views, the World Championship would be worthless.

And making the Undertaker tap out, really? Even though that didn’t happen at Breaking Point, but just the mere thought makes my blood boil. The Undertaker is one thing that Vince McMahon is doing right with the business, and keeping him seems untouchable. What I mean “untouchable” I mean he can’t be defeated at WrestleMania. The Undertaker has never tapped out. And this man was around when McMahon screwed Bret Hart out of the WWF Championship back in November 1997. Now why would McMahon put his top guy, again, in a stupid storyline like this?

This simply boggles my mind. I cannot reason why the Undertaker agreed with this angle. Like said, this past summer I did some research about the whole “Montreal Screw Job” and after reading Bret Hart’s autobiography about that cold November night, Undertaker was pissed off about the whole screwing. I cannot understand why the Undertaker went thought with this storyline, knowing how much what originally made him go into frenzy.

The whole screw job storyline, I cannot see how they could take it from here. One of the wrestling podcasts that I subscribe to talked about having a Hell in a Cell match at the WWE’s next pay-per-view Hell in a Cell. Honestly, I think giving CM Punk a two month title run is way too short. And I cannot see the Undertaker losing two straight pay-per-view. But if I wrote the storylines for Smackdown television, I would have the Undertaker lose to CM Punk inside the structure that the Undertaker helped made famous, setting their match for the following pay-per-view, which would be WWE Bragging Rights, which would be fitting for CM Punk.

Here’s where I can see them taking this storyline. Like said, I hope that CM Punk would defeat the Undertaker at Hell in a Cell, beat him at Bragging Rights, and Undertaker’s last shot at Survivor Series, in a Casket match, having the Undertaker defeat CM Punk, and giving the Dead Man one last run to WrestleMania as World Heavyweight Champion, especially if WrestleMania XXVI is when he’s going to retire.

But that’s my opinion about the whole Screw Job angle that they did. Like said, I find it absolutely stupid. But that’s my opinion, and I’m sticking to it. This is Eric Darsie from Minnesota, listening to “One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer” by George Thorogood and the Destroyers, goodbye!

John Cena won his fourth WWE championship at Breaking Point defeating Randy Orton. Orton gave up to an STF with the help of handcuffs. WWE world champion CM Punk retained his title against the Undertaker. Punk paid homage to the Montreal Screw Job by reenacting the same scenario and screwing Taker to end the show. Punk also mentioned Jeff Hardy earlier in the show which is sure to get a lot of people talking.

The Montreal Screw Job played a part throughout Breaking Point. The event was held in Montreal. Earlier in the night, fans screamed “You Screwed Bret” at DX. Get over it already! Not the kind of babyface reaction you’d want for your top attraction. The screw job was later reenacted as referee Scott Armstrong rang the bell while Punk had Taker in the Anaconda Vise. Taker never gave up and Teddy Long was left standing with a lot of explaining to do. Lock the door Teddy!

John Cena regained his WWE championship in the co-main event. The match was probably one of Cena’s better matches in the last several years. Orton used a paid of handcuffs throughout the match, handcuffing and beating Cena who wouldn’t quit. Cena finally took possession of the handcuffs and used them in a combination with the STF for the win.

Cena has been on top for a long time, but it’s been a while since he has had the title. It would have been three years this week since Cena’s last title reign. Cena never technically lost the title during his last run. Cena had to vacate the title after suffering a severe injury against Mr. Kennedy on WWE RAW. Orton has had three reigns since that time. Triple H leads the all-time list with eight WWE title reigns.

In a somewhat surprising move, WWE acknowledged Jeff Hardy’s arrest on the show. CM Punk in an interview made reference to Jeff having his mug shot all over the Internet. I am pretty surprised. I would have expected WWE to run away from this story. Additionally, Jeff Hardy left the company reportedly on good terms. Why kick a man when he is down, especially when his brother and his best friends are still working there?

Former WWE Diva Trish Stratus will be the WWE Guest Host tomorrow on RAW. Stratus will captain the ship as they follow up Breaking Point. The show also features an appearance by former WWE champion Batista. Batista is scheduled to make a career altering announcement. The set up will also begin for the WWE’s next big show, Hell in the Cell. I would expect a set of Hell in the Cell matches to include DX vs. Legacy, CM Punk vs. Undertaker, and John Cena vs. Randy Orton.

“Still Unbroken” by Lynyrd Skynyrd equals the total kick-bottom theme song for this Sunday’s WWE Breaking Point. Why would I say that it’s a kick-bottom tune? It’s a mix by Skynyrd of their older music that fans of theirs absolutely love and a new, modern age rock of love produced to be WWE Breaking Points theme. Shockingly enough, this is one of few country/rock songs that I really enjoy. I would suggest everyone to go out and buy the single, “Still Unbroken,” because it rocks that much to the core and you’ll get your rocking’s out of this song. Now to the pay-per-view perditions.

World Heavyweight Championship Submission match:
CM Punk (Champ) v. the Undertaker

A returning Dead Man is coming back this Sunday to challenge the World Heavyweight Champion in a submission match for the champion’s title strap. CM Punk has his hands full because the Undertaker never submitted ever in his career as the Undertaker, ever. Could this Sunday be a first for everyone ordering the pay-per-view? I personally don’t think so. Here’s my prediction: CM Punk someone does a “Montréal Screw Job II” to the Dead Man, putting him in his Anaconda Vise, having the referee calling for the bell, making the Dead Man never tapping. Remember, they are in Montréal, of all places, on Sunday. You read it first here.

WWE Championship “I Quit” match:
Randy Orton (Champ) v. John Cena

If you would have read my predictions for SummerSlam, you would have noticed then that I didn’t care about their match at SummerSlam, and same here, I could care less about Orton and Cena at Breaking Point. I am getting pretty sick and tired of seeing this main event at most of the pay-per-view main events in the past several years. But looking at the track record of both men in submission matches, or even the “I Quit” matches, I have to put my money, and my prediction, on John Cena forcing Orton to quit and Cena becoming a four-time WWE Champion and a six-time World Champion. A great match would be watching Cena’s first “I Quit” match in the WWE against John “Bradshaw” Layfield back in 2005 at Judgment Day (a pay-per-view that I attended, it was in Minnesota).

Undisputed WWE Tag Team Championship Submission match:
Chris Jericho & Big Show v. Mark Henry & MVP

A match where they put two random wrestlers together to face the red-hot champions, I cannot see Mark Henry and MVP walking out of Breaking Point defeating the team of the Big Show and Chris Jericho. And honestly, I cannot see more of a bigger two mismatch teams of Big Show and Chris Jericho versus MVP and Mark Henry. We can see that Jericho and Show work, they are the tag team champs for the past two pay-per-views, making Breaking Point their third pay-per-view title match. In the end, my prediction goes with the current tag champs walking out with the unified tag straps, that being the Big Show and Chris Jericho.

Submission’s Count Anywhere match:
D-Generation X v. Legacy

Are you ready to see a first at Breaking Point, a submission’s count anywhere match? A match by itself, I’m personally excited for. The four individuals that are in the match, am I excited to see in the match, if done correctly, I am. But thinking of the match, I’m really not that thrilled for the match. Just like his sister match, the submission’s count anywhere match, the fall(s) can and will be counted anywhere when D-Generation X takes on Legacy in their second pay-per-view feud match. My prediction for the match is Legacy, because to make this feud better and to make Cody Rhodes and Ted DiBiase better, they need to go 1-to-1 with Michaels and HHH in their feud.

To conclude my predictions for WWE Breaking Point, if they’re anything like my predictions for SummerSlam, I will go a little over 50 percent on getting my predictions right. I only gave four predictions. Could I be right on them all, or even three of them? That would catch me off guard if that’s the case. But here’s my predictions, and I hope you all enjoyed getting my incite on the pay-per-view. This is Eric Darsie from Minnesota, jamming out to Lynyrd Skynyrd’s “Still Unbroken,” bought from iTunes and now is on my iPod, goodbye!
