The Anaconda Vise vs. Hell’s Gate, The Deadman vs. The Chicago Made Punk, The Phenom vs. The only Straightedge WHC in history, and The Undertaker vs. CM Punk.
September 27th marks the date of the newly created Breaking Point pay-per-view. Formerly known as Unforgiven, now rebranded to give the WWE pay-per-view scene a fresh, new exciting look. Could be a master stroke by Vince McMahon if the matches are given the time and preparation they deserve.
Breaking Point’s main event matches will all be contested under submission rules. At which a breaking point will be reached. It is stress at which a person breaks down, at which a person will submit under extreme pressure and at which a person will quit under extreme hardship.
Breaking Point could be exactly this for WWE, triumph or failure. This breaking point could lead to a shift in the morals and perception of the WWE. As in the film “Apocalypse Now” when Colonel Kurtz reaches his breaking point after the Vietcong’s gruesome acts, he defects from the U.S. Army.
The main event of WWE Breaking Point could provide us with a quality five star match which re-invokes attention in wrestling and which offers us this kind of turning point. A turning point away from the WWE look of 6ft 2inchs and 250 pounds, towards a dynamic roster of all shapes and sizes and a concentration and respect on technical wrestling.
It will be through The Undertaker vs. CM Punk at Breaking Point where we will see a glimmer of superb wrestling rarely seen in the WWE. It will be The Anaconda Vise vs. Hell’s Gate for the World Heavyweight Championship.
CM Punk made a name for himself in Ring of Honour as a great technical wrestler who can play heel or face. He is credited for one of the greatest feuds in this decade. As Punk faced off against Samoa Joe the then ROH World Champion, in a three match series.
The first match, took place in 2004 on June 12th at World Title Classic in Dayton, Ohio. The match had a sixty minute time limit on it, and the match reached this limit and was declared a draw. Due to neither Punk nor Joe could pin or cause submission to one another, so Joe retained the ROH World Title.
